Hi all!

After umming and arrring (sp ?) for 2 plus years I’ve decided to get a little rabbit

You might not be able to tell from the pics but he has the brightest blue eyes and he’s white and very light brown and is a small ‘lionlop’ lion head bunny

what do you think he looks like

Buffy
Blue
Bambi
Coco
Gizmo
Pebbles
Darcey
Louis
Bugsy (my surname is actually Malone!)
Thumper

FWIW we also have a beautiful collie dog called Maddie

Thank you everyone and Happy Weekend/ Easter/ Holidays x

Bugsy if you're a Malone! Or Bunsy

I don't even like animals but she's so cute and fluffy!

Justlovedogs · 30/03/2024 03:52

He is gorgeous 😍.
Personally I'm loving the idea of you checking into the vets with Busy Malone - but then I have the sort of vet that check animals in as their name plus owners surname!

CocoBellaSparkle · 30/03/2024 03:54

Thank you! And I love when a receptionist and/or vet will call out for your pets name with your surname when it’s your turn ! 😀☺️

So do I. I thought it was just me being pathetic.

I got the same feeling last week when my cat was lying on the vets table with a mystery illness being very dramatic (its OK, it was nothing serious in the end) and the vet said ‘I think we’d better have Mum at the head end’.

I know I’m not his mum, but Yeah, I really love that cat.

Your gorgeous bunny looks like a pebbles but how can you not go with Bugsy under the circumstances?

CocoBellaSparkle · 30/03/2024 04:40

OooScotland - thank you for your kind reply! And I love it when the vet says ‘mum’ about my pup when at the vets! It confirms to me that even the vets know that they’re not just our ‘pets’ but like our children!! (In fact my pup is better behaved than my own children 🤣☺️)

ps- your cat sounds awesome and I bet he’s one lucky little cat 🐱

Gorgeous bunny

My DH swore we always had to have human names so he didn't get embarrassed at vet.

We got a Cookie already named. He LOVES his little Cookie.

I'd honestly pick pebbles. His eyes look like such cute pebbles.

Willmafrockfit · 30/03/2024 07:36

Bugsy is perfect with your surname

Needmorelego · 30/03/2024 07:38

Pebbles would be good because he is the colours of a beach pebble.

Jewelanemone · 30/03/2024 07:38

Nothing on this earth cuter than a baby rabbit - she's definitely a Pebbles 💗

Jewelanemone · 30/03/2024 07:39

Sorry, 'he'!

Bigearringsbigsmile · 30/03/2024 07:40

Pebbles because she os so cute!

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 30/03/2024 07:42

A real Easter Bunny! Lovely.

I'll freely admit I clicked on this thread hoping you were asking for opinions on a name for a baby. Easter Grin Now I know you aren't, I'd say Bugsy. Works with Malone, works with Bunny.

DisplayPurposesOnly · 30/03/2024 07:43

Rabbits should be kept in pairs, so please adopt two (and get both neutered. 80% of unneutered females get womb cancer).

Moreteaandchocolate · 30/03/2024 08:31

Bugsy bunny! He’s gorgeous

NarnianQueen · 30/03/2024 08:36

He's so adorable!

It HAS to be Bugsy, with your surname! It's too good not to use!

QueSyrahSyrah · 30/03/2024 08:38

Best thread I've seen in Baby Names for a while! Bugsy Malone 💯

Devilshands · 30/03/2024 08:50

Bugsy!

How could you not?!

TheYearOfSmallThings · 30/03/2024 08:51

Bugsy, of course! How could you let that opportunity pass?!

Bigearringsbigsmile · 30/03/2024 07:40

Pebbles because she os so cute!

Until I saw you're surname I was undecided. Has to be Bugsy Malone.

but also this.
Rabbits should be kept in pairs, so please adopt two (and get both neutered. 80% of unneutered females get womb cancer).

im surprised youve been allowed to adopt a rabbit at Easter. Lots of rescues near me wont allow it because it is the equivalent of people getting puppies at christmas.

AnnaMagnani · 30/03/2024 09:02

Bunsy is inspired!

MrsMoastyToasty · 30/03/2024 09:12

Gareth. Unless you are married to a well known choir master.

Nicebloomers · 30/03/2024 09:16

Bugsy for sure! Congrats on your new addition!
