My family raises rabbits. We have 20 rabbits, 3 of which are expecting. My sister is into breeding Holland Lops and I LOVE the mini rex. As of right now i only have one, a black otter sr. buck, but am looking for a companion for him. i had a chocolate jr. doe but she passed unexpectedly. I absolutely love the feeling of their coat and the size of them. I also have a blue eyed white Netherland Dwarf. We raise Holland Lops and Havana's. We are also starting to get into the Himalayan. As you can see we are very into our rabbits. Our website is Suttonrabbitry.weebly.com...it will be updated with in the next week.

I have a mini rex rabbit that I just got and I love her. But now that I have just heard about blue rabbits, and that they really do look blue, I want one because I think they may look cute and because my favorite color is blue!

    Rabbits are not the latest barbies or nail polish. They are animal companions that take a great deal of care and love. They are not accessories... PLEASE!

    I also have two mini rex rabbits, both male one named Vinny and the other is Veigo. I think that rabbits are a companion as they are to me so I don't agree with the person saying that rabbits are not companions!

Mini Rex are a wonderful pet. I see the last post where the girl just got a Mini Rex & now has heard about blue rabbits. Mini Rex do come in Blue. There are 17 varieties (colors) of Mini Rex with more in the works. My advice to the young lady who just got her Mini Rex. If you are just having them as pets please spay & nueter them. Don't forget about your original bunny. They are a very social rabbit & need lots of your attention. This is coming from a mother of young breeder & exhibitor. My dughter raises & shows quality rabbits & they are all played with daily. Enjoy your first one & then deciode if you have time for 2.

    Yes, I just purchased a all black mini rex monday and I named her calming, because when I pet her I feel calm and warm. I love her although she hasn't gotten used to me quite yet were working on it. I too agree that mini rex are the best pets in the world.

I have had the pleasure of owning rabbits almost all of my life, but once I moved away from home at 18 and started renting, I was unable to have a rabbit due to lack of yard and space. Finally after turning 22, I decided enough is enough and started looking for local breeders. I had not yet decided on a breed. I honestly just knew when I saw the one that was ''made'' for me, I would just kinda know. Well months went by infact and I still hadn't found a bunny that I felt I could call my own. Then one day I was one my way into work and there it was, the sign I had been waiting for ''BABY BUNNIES FOR SALE ALL BREEDS!''.
I called the number that evening and made a appointment the next day to go look at them. When I arrived I knew within minutes I would be leaving with a Mini Rex, for out of all the bunnies they were the sweetest and softest ;). So we bought Picasso -his name- home and he has been an amazing addiction to our family. He and my chihuahua actually get along! Long story short, I spent years without a rabbit and months searching for the perfect one for me, and Picasso answered my prayers. He is the perfect rabbit and if I had to do it again, I might have gotten 2 :)!

I work in rabbit rescue and wish people would STOP "buying" rabbits. Go to your local shelter. In most places, shelters are bursting at the seams with bunnies that people buy and then discard when the "newness" wears off.

Buying bunnies only encourages pet stores and breeders to create more rabbits - even though there are thousands and thousands of rabbits dying in shelters.

RESCUE is the answer. Not a pet store. Even PETCO no longer sells bunnies because they recognize that it only adds to the overpopulation problem.

My sister-in-law bought 2 mini blue rex bunnies for my stepdaugther. She absolutley loves them. They are let out into a "play pen" that my husband made. It is a small garden area, and they love to jump and do kicks in the air. They are so soft, like velvet. All of our neigborhood kids love to watch them as they walk bye. They are the sweetest bunnies ever. One is named mittens and the other fluff. They bring a lot of joy to our family.
