About Me
Hi my name is Sandy , I am a wife , mother and grandmother. I have always had a genuine love for all animals , so much so has a child my Dad was always hesitant to give me to much pocket money , why?,  because he knew the first thing I would do would be to jump on the next bus to town to see which pet I could afford  to buy that day from the local market (this was back when markets used to sell domestic pets such as kittens, puppies , rabbits , guinea pigs ....) I vividly remember one time buying a Tortoise on one of my market pet shopping sprees , however!  after buying this little chap I started to get cold feet as I began to visualize in my mind the expression on Dads face as he looked upon the latest addition to our family. Nerves got the better of me as I thought about how am I going to explain my way out of this one!, "I know" I thought to myself I could say the Tortoise had just been left out in the street! I would then try to put on an innocent looking face that I hoped would express WOW! who left that there! (I know forgive me lol , I must have been about 12 at the time). Fortunately for me (and Tortie now come to think of it all these years later)  our road was quiet , so carefully positioning my little armour plated friend outside our front door  I briskly knocked then raced around to the back door just in time to see  Dad  answering that knock! at the front door. Of course there was no one there except Tortie and yes of course Dad knew I was behind it , but the good news was Tortie was allowed to stay!. That obviously was quite a number of years ago now, but my love and care for animals remains the same.  At this stage in my life my children are grown and have families of their own , sooooo, hopefully  I should have a little more me time now, so this is why I decided to become an occasional hobby breeder of Continental Giant Rabbits.  A little while ago our rabbit named Lewis passed on from old age , I know you can never replace any pet ,  they are all individuals with their own  personalities , and I know Lewis had a good life , he was very much loved  and I missed  him so much when he passed on that I started looking for another rabbit  to care for. While doing a search I came across the Continental Giant Breed Rabbit, and that was it, I was hooked,  I have found them to be such gentle  inquisitive creatures and my dream was to hopefully occasionally be able to breed them.  My dream became a reality in April 2009 when we www.giantbunnieshomestead.com produced our very first litter of these truly remarkable Gentle Giants.

Hello Sandy. So sorry we have not been in contact for so long----- with the family growing up and the unfortunate separation of Mike and myself back last year the months have passed us by!!! I write to you with sadness as our beloved bunny Ruby passed away early last month- 10 /10/10---- people said it was a lucky day but for myself and the children a day of utmost sadness!!!!!! She was such a character the children miss her immensely ------ she was a wonderful member of our family!!! I am sure that you will be as devastated as we still are about our loss of her!! It brings back lovely memories seeing her photographs on here and we still have a few I am sure you would love to see!!! We will cherish the memories of her just as we do of our previous bunny Bugs!!!!! My mobile number is 07789168809--- I hope we can chat soon but I thought I needed to let you know. So sorry to bring you sad news!!! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Sandy,
R thank you for the comment, yes he is a lovely little bunny!
In the past i have always kept my rabbits outdoors with a big run, but after much researce before purchasing 'Monty' decided that i would like to keep him as a house rabbit.
He has a '8ft' by 3ft' pen in which he stays whilst i'm at work complete with hide-a-ways, tunnells and lots of toys to keep hin stimulated!
He was only 8 weeks when i brought him home and has adapted to his new life really well!
He is litter trained and such a funny little character.
He has the run of the downstairs when we're home - that's his favourite time, tearing around and doing 'binkey's'!!!
Hope you are well x
