#rabbit kits

She laid them on her litter box. Thank God I just cleaned and changed their litter box last night so the bedding and hay are all clean and fresh. There wasn't any signs really that Aya was pregnant aside from her incresse in appetite. There wasn't any hair pulling until last night and the hair she pulled wasn't that thick. I don't know what that means but hopefully it doesn't signify like she doesn't care for her kits. As per aggression during pregnancy, actually, she was only aggressive once which was right on the mating incident day on Aug. 22, 2021.

That means, Kosuke and Aya apparently were able to successfully mate a week before Kosuke got neutered. So when I had Aya go through an ultrasound, we weren't able to see anything yet because it was still so early on the pregnancy stage. Glad that I am monitoring and noting on my calendar these little things about my rabbits, it really helps me a lot 'coz I tend to forget things easier lately.

After cleaning Aya's pen, I transferred the kits to a different litter box which was Kosuke & Aya's old litter box when they were about 3-4months old. I kind of felt honored somehow that Aya trusted me when I took her litter box to transfer kits. Like she didn't mind me holding them and she was also very calm with me being inside her pen just as soon as she gave birth. I wasn't really able to prepare anything for Aya's delivery. Last night, when I suspected that Aya's pregnant, I kind of already prepared myself at the possibility of additional kits. It can't be helped, I just really have to deal with it. Gotta give them the best I could to keep them healthy until they're weaned and find them a new loving home. And then when circumstances permit, I'll get Aya fixed as soon as possible.
