Derek is responsible for our collection of dwarf bunnies, both past and present. Bunnies in the garden and bunnies in the house, “Too many bunnies”, as I often exclaim when everyone is demanding bunny treats. Although our bunnies all have secure bunny runs to live in, they also spend plenty of time running free.

For advice about dwarf bunnies check out my other site Dwarf Bunnies, which is full of dwarf bunny hints and tips I’ve learned over the years.

Fern is a little cross breed rabbit, we found at our local pet shop’s adoption centre. It was love at first sight and though she is a very small bunny, she has a huge personality.
Fawn was supposed to be a little friend for Fern, but things didn’t quite work out that way. The little guy is more than happy to be a house rabbit, and we couldn’t imagine things any other way.

December 1997 - August 2003
This little pair of house rabbits nibbled our furniture and dug up the carpet, still there was nothing better than the patter of bunny feet at bedtime.
September 1995 - February 2003
These were our first pair of rabbits, they came to live with us in September 1995. We spent many a sunny afternoon watching this happy pair scampering around the garden.

Best friends

Fawn and Treacle have become such good friends, they are like an old married couple!  It is all a bit daft really, we have two bunnies that won’t get along, but both want to be friends with our cat, Treacle. Poor Treacle is quite old now, and Fawn gets very excited when Treacle is around, ...

A new friend for Fawn

10 January 2010 by Lindsay

After the death of his brother, Custard, our other cat, Treacle had started coming upstairs more and of course Fawn was waiting for him.  Fawn really loved spending time with Custard and had missed him terribly when he died, so it’s been great for Fawn to find a new feline friend. Treacle ...


Fern's Snow Adventures

Fern's Snow Adventures

26 December 2009 by Lindsay

The story ‘First Snow‘ was inspired by Fern and her first encounter with snow, although the snowfall Fern experienced at the time was only a very light dusting and nothing at all like the snowfall that Fifi encountered in the story.  All that changed this past week when Fern really did ...

The bunny introductions continue

28 August 2009 by Lindsay

Fern and Fawn may carry on like they hate each other, well its actually Fern who terrorises Fawn, but the end result is the same, they don’t get on. Not to be deterred, Derek and I are persevering and trying to get the two used to each other.  Summer is here and we are taking full advantage ...


A new lawn for Fern

A new lawn for Fern

02 May 2009 by Lindsay

Ever since we moved into our house, about 4 years ago, the lawn has been in a sorry state.  We’ve tried a few things to make it healthier and greener, but the moss was winning.  Now Fern’s living on it and we walk on it everyday, it’s has been getting worse. So, we decided to ...
