8 Reasons Bunnies Make The Best Pets
www.whoa.in

Our house has never had the typical family pet. We’ve never had a dog or a cat. However, we have had several fish, hamsters, a bird, and a bunny. Out of all these house pets, I can say without a doubt that my bunny was the absolute best one. Everything from their adorable ears and fluffy tails to their little hops across the living room floor is absolutely perfect. I've had a rabbit almost my whole life, and I can confidently say that I never found a single problem with him. Overall, these little animals are hard not to love. If you still aren't convinced that they are the best animals ever (or you just want to see pictures of cute bunnies) keep reading.

1. Rabbits are extremely easy to take care of.

I had a rabbit for 12 years, so I know what it’s like to take care of one. Like any other pets, rabbits need food, water, and a clean environment. If you have to leave for the weekend, you don’t need to hire a pet sitter. All you have to do is clean their cage and give them food and water, and they’ll be good on their own for two days.

2. They are easy to transport.

If you happen to want to bring your bunny on the trip, all you have to do is put their cage in the car, and you're set. It's as easy as that.

3. They don't make noise.

Don’t get me wrong, I love dogs, but I can’t stand barking for more than five minutes. This isn’t a problem with rabbits. Every once in a while, they’ll make quiet squeaking noises, but that’s about it.

4. Bunnies are good with kids.


Bunnies make great pets (especially for little kids) because, for the most part, they don’t bite or scratch. They are also very tolerant, so they put up with kids that other pets would quickly become annoyed with.

5. They are entertaining!

People say that rabbits aren’t good pets because they don’t do anything. That is far from true! Rabbits are some of the most curious animals. They love to hop around and explore, and you are guaranteed to smile when you watch them trying to figure something out.

6. They make some of the best cuddle buddies.

I can’t vouch for all of the rabbits out there, but my rabbit would come and lay next to me if I was laying on the floor watching TV or doing homework. Having a bunny hop over and lay down next to you after a rough day is one of the best feelings.

7. They are really cute.

If you don’t think bunnies are even remotely cute, you need to readjust how you look at animals. After that, if you still don’t think they're cute, I can’t help you.

8. Probably the cutest animals ever.

They are so adorable that their cuteness is acknowledged twice on this list. How can your heart not melt when you look at this picture (and at all other bunnies)?

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
