Acts of Animal Kindness in Your Daily Life

Raising rabbits for many years has left me with so many experiences, from curing my rabbits from pox using pox proline to tackling a slow and steady, deadly, and insidious bacteria disease (coccidiosis). Some experiences would have made me give up, especially when I reflected on how the first caretaker of this pet before it became mine was unable to raise up to four rabbits in the hutch for about 6 months. Apart from her children's Lassie affries attitude in caring for the rabbits, she had no personal time for them as a proprietress; her workload didn't give her much time for this. I wouldn't blame the children anyways; they are young and need instructions to know more about rabbits.

Do I need to repeat that I love rabbits? This could be seen clearly by my actions; every day has always been hectic, and though it was, I sacrificed my time to check up on these rabbits for the first time, definitely the first time I really needed to see how they were faring. We all dispersed to our homes after the charity program where we distributed food for kids in Nigerian nursery schools. I promise to check up on these rabbits. As proposed, I followed Sir @benton3 home, and when I got there, we went straight to the hutch.

What I needed to do was to confirm their pregnancy. In the course of raising rabbits, I have experienced false pregnancy, stillbirth, and double pregnancy. You might be very surprised with double pregnancy, but that's a talk for another day—nothing ambiguous, though.

The act of animal kindness is what I am doing; the happiness felt by the doe while anticipating her litters is what I want to revive here. @benton3 hutch houses 3 does and a buck, and they have all been crossed, but a mind-bothering question is churning within him: "It's over 30 days, and why have my rabbits not given birth?" I discovered after palpating the three does that only one was pregnant; my pregnancy diagnosis is 80% accurate, not perfect, but from experience I have seen cases like this, anticipating a birth after a month and then seeing no sign of delivery from the expected rabbits.

I made some suggestion on the feeds and supplement to be added to their meals to improve performance and I will be waiting for some feedback and we are expecting one of the rabbits to give birth, the rabbits were introduced to new leaves with more nutritional content and I am sure this will be effective on their performance as well. @okere-blessing How is your bulldog's health?

It's my earnest pleasure to see friends like @faires, @bossj23, and @johnmitchel join in this contest. It's a season of love; show love to your pets.
