We have all heard of the Easter Bunny, but my daughter now has a Christmas bunny, too! The rabbit in the above photo is her latest pet. His name is Nero and he is house trained to use a litter box or go outside and walk on a leash. He is very calm and loves to be held and is very cuddly. The more I am around him, the better I like this new pet ... which we will probably be pet sitting in coming months! LOL Nero also seems to be very happy to wear his Christmas costume. Our daughter has also bought him a Halloween costume which looks like a big bumble bee! LOL

@rakski - I am not sure. My daughter is very patient with animals, so her pets always seem to be very well trained. I never mind taking care of them!

@RasmaSandra - I adore Nero, too. Perhaps my next pet should be a rabbit, as well! LOL

Nero (black) is a funny name for a white rabbit.

@LadyDuck - Yes, it is, and they KNOW that Nero means black! They were laughing about it the other day. I think they like the irony of it.

He looks a very cute rabbit. My nephew put up photos of his miniature goat dressed in a Santa costume.

@JudyEv - Oh, that sounds hilarious, too. I don't think my daughter who has the miniature goats dresses them up. I'm sure the goats are grateful for that!

@DeborahDiane I know you can buy 'pyjamas' for them. There is a YouTube clip somewhere of dozens of these little goats in pyjamas. Here is one link:
We have had 48 Nigerian Dwarf Goat kids born at the farm in the past two weeks. Now they are anywhere from 3 days old to 2 weeks old. They are getting so fei...

@JamesHxstatic - I didn't realize that, either. He is such a cuddly, sweet bunny. He jumps up on her bed in the morning, like a dog might, and cuddles up with her. She loves it!
