2011 in the Chinese calendar belongs to the year of the rabbits and that is what we will be having for 2011.
My baby girl Cheekie is finally pregnant, although it was a shotgun kinda thing as we were not planning for her to get pregnant throughout her life but well, guess Cheeko got past us steathily and got to her before we could get him off her.
How we found out was when I took her to hands 'n' paws veterinary clinic at aman suria and after a thorough check and an ultrasound, we saw three heartbeats down at her abdomen and well, she is lactating. Since she was malnourished as she was no longer interested in her pellets, the doctor gave us multivitamins and a concoction to boost her appetite.
She looks much more cheerful now, and she is pooing more now compared to the last two weeks.. yay! hopefully she will keep this up, increase her appetite and may the vitamins help give her all the strength and health she needs to deliver safe, stay safe and have a bunch of good litter out of her.
Cheekie is in her mid-pregnancy stage now and guess in about 2 weeks or so, we will be able to see her become a mother. Touch wood but I really hope she will have a safe delivery! I hope she will only be in labour after my Singapore trip and not when I am not at home. I don't think Simon will be able to handle it all by himself when he has his hands full already, just by handling the little boy.
We actually do not plan to keep the babies. Am thinking about either giving it away to friends who loves rabbits and know how to care for them or giving them away to the petshop.
Simon is just scared that the babies' luck will not be as good as they will be in our home but well, there is really no space to make for more rabbits. Having those two is more than enough in this household. *sigh*
What a way to usher in 2011 yea? =)
Have a hopping good Chinese New Year!!!
