My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

20-24
Layla
Spayed Female
Est DOB 05/01/15
Mini Rex
White / Gray Spots (Broken Coat)
Weight 6 pounds

I was pulled along with 137 other rabbits from a hoarding breeding situation. The local Sheriff's Office and Animal Control were charging my previous owner with animal cruelty because our medical needs and basic needs were not being provided in a proper manner. I was kept dirty horrific conditions and many of us had medical conditions and were suffering from Pasterurella multocida.

Layla was adopted in 2018 and returned to the rescue in 2020 because the owner was moving and could not keep her.

The shelter describes me as a Rose. These means that I have a mind of my own and it is evident even in the shelter environment. I am often seen chinning, exploring, head bumping, and presenting for petting. I may have also been seen binkying, headshaking, playing with toys. A few may tail flag or thump occasionally if they see someone or something they dislike. Hiding and cowering are almost never seen in these rabbits. Roses demand a great deal of attention in permanent homes and are not shy in making their demands known. A few of these may get along with other rabbits if they are submissive, but many Roses actively dislike other rabbits and may be difficult to bond, preferring human companionship to do their bidding.
