A New Bunny

Last night Dennis came home with a big cardboard box.  He set it on the kitchen floor and pulled out a lovely gray rabbit.  Happy Valentine's Day!  Yes, it is only February 2nd.  Now he's got that out of the way and he can attend to other more pressing things.  Back to the rabbit.  She is very pretty and very soft.  She got all different shades of gray and a black face.  So technically she'd be considered a black.  She's a German/french angora cross with a lot of German in her pedigree.  Our white giant angora, Cotton, was quite interested in a new friend.  We look forward to blending angora with Lincoln longwool.  The combination could produce some wonderful yarns.  I'm really wanting to make sock yarn this year.  Increasing  the number of angora rabbits allows us to create some exciting blends.  Well everyone took turns holding her.  Tonight she got to cruise around the house.  The question is, what do we name her?  Ginny?  So we can say we have Cotton and Gin.  I've also heard Godiva.  Hmmm.  Gotta give it some more thought.
