Happy New Year!

Finally, 2009 is here!

I have to admit that I slept through it, having recently acquired a taste for early to bed and early to rise. Yep, I'm getting old.

But I have finally discovered what the early risers have always known. The early morning hours are a wonderful time to spend with our four-legged friends. Shelby is definitely a morning rabbit, greeting me with repeated thumps indicating her displeasure that it's 6 am and she STILL hasn't had her morning pellets.

Kramer greets me with a flick of his tail before magically re-appearing in the kitchen, waiting impatiently for his breakfast. Molly is like me - slow moving. But with Kramer's encouragement, she makes her way over and eats her share.

What better way to greet the New Year than happy, (reasonably) healthy bunny faces! I am so very grateful for mornings like this.

Another reason to be grateful this first day of the New Year? So many rabbits found their forever home this past year, four within the past month!

All of Lucy's babies have now been adopted. Lacey has been adopted by Megan, who also has Blackberry. I remember Lacey as a baby, climbing on top of her siblings to find just the right spot to sleep. Little Brie, gorgeous and a bit shy, won over the hearts of Anne and Albert. Hard to believe but Lucy's babies are almost a year old now!

The Lambright family have adopted Peyton, a big gorgeous guy.

Mary Beth took in Worf as a foster and decided to keep him.

So, as the New Year begins, my hope is that you and your fur balls have a very happy and healthy New Year! And thanks so much for supporting CHRS! We really are making a difference.
