Isaura’s Happy Summer Vacation with Grandma Casey

Isaura was born to a rabbit raising family.

Both grandma Casey and dad Cole raise rabbits.

Isaura is very comfortable with rabbits.

Isaura also loves to name the rabbits.  Casey's big winner, the number 1 Satin Angora Rabbit of the Year Fuyumi was named by Isaura.

Though Isaura moved to Georgia, she still retains at least one Satin Angora as her own.

 

Summer in California is full of fun, especially playing with rabbits, dogs, chickens and cats.

Summer is over, Isaura has to say temporary goodbye to her Satin Angora boy and to grandma and to dad, she will be back to California in no time at all.

 

Cute French Angora Buns

Cute French Angora bunnies.    

Genetics is fun.   Parents are both colored but the babies are all Ruby Eye White (REW).   What this tells you is that both parents carry the albino gene c, both are Cc.   Though the probability says the chance of getting REW is only 1/4, reality does not necessarily match the probability. 

 

There are three boys and one girl.  If you are looking for a handsome boy, talk to Carol!

Carolyn's New Pink Scarf

Carolyn Sawai loves pink, Carolyn also loves scarves.  Here is a brand new pink scarf she just finished creating.

There is a pretty knitted flower accents the pink scarf.

Is the scarf intended for Carolyn herself? Or for a bunny?

 

Kitty Friends in High Places

When brothers Bao Bao and Bei Bei were months-old kittens, they were able to get on the top of the refrigerator.  They played with each other on the highest place in the kitchen.

At one year old, they are not as playful but they still consider the top of the refrigerator as one of their favorite places.

Brothers are calmer at one year old than as 3-month-olds.

Now 4 years old, can you tell the difference from their younger days?

They are a bit chunkier than the younger days but still active, still love to be at the high place.

Garth Brooks has "Friends in Low Places", we have kitty friends in high places.

Raecelia is Growing, Growing…

The last time we saw Raecelia was in July, just before she was about to go to her first show.  She was under 5 months old.

This photo was taken after she came back from her first show, and she just made 5 months old,  She was not expecting anything when she was at the show but she managed to win over her older relatives: the white senior buck, the white senior doe and she received the honor of Best of Variety (BOV) in all three shows.

This Raecelia's profile when she was 5 months old.

Raecelia is still a junior doe right now but she is getting closer to being a senior, just another week to go.

Raecelia will be competing in the senior doe class in the coming show.  Still not expecting much as a very young senior but she is growing and growing and getting prettier and prettier.

Carolyn loves Renner. 

Renner is a lucky bun to have Carolyn as his mom.
