In the midst of taking pics I looked up from the camera to see a neighbor standing on my front steps. She had found a domestic bunny running loose a few days ago and could I take it or did I know of someone who would? My first question was, &#8220;Who told you I keep rabbits?&#8221; I don&#8217;t want a reputation as *the bunny lady* because I&#8217;m afraid people will dump rabbits on my doorstep. It was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somewhereinnj.com\/?p=1492\">neighbor with the hutch bunny<\/a> that gave me away.<\/span><\/div>\n<div align=\"left\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size:85%;\"><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.somewhereinnj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/IMG_0397.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.somewhereinnj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/IMG_0397-300x200.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a> <span style=\"font-size:85%;\">So. This very scared lop-eared bunny is here in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.somewhereinnj.com\/?p=1455\">Dora&#8217;s<\/a> cage with fresh hay and water and a pooty box. Very well-cared for from the looks of him\/her, but so scared she is chirping at me like a little lost bird. And thumping! Thumping like mad any time the dog walks in view. What to do?<\/span> <\/div>\n<div align=\"left\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.somewhereinnj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/IMG_0398.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.somewhereinnj.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/07\/IMG_0398-300x200.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a> <span style=\"font-size:85%;\">Do I bother with putting up flyers in the neighborhood with the idea that someone out there loves and misses this young bunny? Or follow my gut and know that this is an Easter dump of the worst sort &#8211; a bunny set free to fend for itself?

I&#8217;ve hemmed and hawed for the last month feeling like I was content with the four I have and am not really ready for the heartbreak of another bunny yet.
