Bunny name needed!
I have a new rabbit...my previous rabbit died recently, (he was a large rabbit, New Zealand/Californian, and lived outside). My new rabbit is small, and I am contemplating having her live indoors. She is a Dwarf Polish. Here are some pics. Names I am considering: Sorrel, Sage, Marshmallow, Cotton, Luna, Echo, Dapple, Mindfulness, Peace, Tranquility, Hush, Placid, Shimmer, Shadow, Moonstone, Glimmer.
So far she is quite mellow....bodhisattva-like actually -- so I am considering a name that indicates a mellow, homebody, nonassuming, and also indicating stillness and peace because she stays still a lot, and she seems to radiate peace and contentment.

I like LUna too...someone else suggested "Aura" which is also nice because it suggests "auditory" (to me) and so points to her ears.

I believe I have chosen her name -- it's Moonstone.
Here she is playing a new game.....that she cleverly invented.....

Here she is with her newest trick -- hopping atop a cardboard box and ripping it....

She seems to say: why is this cardboard and not a carrot worth hopping to safety ? Do you have her in that box all the time or do you let her out? Not unsupervised on the carpet evidently...

She gets a bit of carrot too, and cucumber, celery, broccoli -- other munchy vegetable treats -- yet she loves to play on the box and argue with it why it is standing there. The floor of the pen which you see in blue color, is actually a waterproof barrier that lines the pen, which sits atop the carpet and allows me some confidence that she wont' pee there. But as I am discovering to my delight, bunnies are natural litter box users. You dont' actually have to train them to use a litter box, you just need to provide one. It is their natural instinct to pee and poop in a corner of their lair or cage and so they do it in the box, particularly if the box has a big pile of hay in it, as they apparently like to eat and poop in the same spot. Ever since I've provided her a litter box in her pen she always pees in it. I find some of her little round balls at random places but the pee always goes in the litter box.
