Chester

So I got out voted and now we have a pet. I'm just not such a big animal person, but at least this guy is small and quiet and doesn't stink...yet. And his "waste" makes excellent fertilizer (Chris' major selling point). We now have a bunny, Chester! Grandma Alice gave him to us. He is a tiny little thing right now. The kids are loving him...maybe a little too much :)

the boys helping put the cage together....they look so involved!

We've now had chester for 2 days and I have to say it's not the worst thing that has ever happened to me. He's been dropped 3 times and overfed like EVERY day...but he's cute and soft and cuddly...YAY for us!

Grandma say,
Oh, he is cute. Cuter then some of our bunnies. You are teaching valuable lessons. Patience you will learn. Have you been praying for patience? It could have been a rat! Yak!

OH my word, I am not an animal person, either, but Chester is SO CUTE! Looks like your kids are 100% in love. :)

Way to go killing two birds with one stone. Your kids get a cute cuddly pet for a bit, while at the same time expanding your food storage!
...We were thinking about getting a puppy.

Chester seems an appropriate name for a bunny.
