My story

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

*Thanks to a generous donor, Sweet Potato's adoption fee has been sponsored!*

Meet Sweet Potato, aka "Sweet P," a gorgeous gal who everyone falls in love with. Sweet Potato is very curious and loves to explore and is eager to say hi to anyone who stops by her pen. She would do best in a home where she has a lot of free time to zoom around. She has a lot of energy she needs to burn off!

Sweet P is currently in a foster home, and here's what her foster has to say about her: "Sweet Potato is a great office mate and has such a fun personality! She will run up to investigate what I'm doing and would like to know everything. She loves to zoom (the running kind) and binky. She also likes to boss me around, which I think is so funny since she's a small bunny. She loves being petted and will hop up to me while I'm working to take a break and pet her. I just adore that she has strong opinions about things and not afraid to express them!

One of Sweet P's favorite activities is digging. Give her a blanket and she'll dig it. She was in a foster home recently and they made a "dig box for her where she could just dig to her heart's content. Sweet P also loves her hay mats, cardboard tunnel, and toilet paper rolls. She's not much into conventional toys! She also likes to play under blankets, which is hilarious to watch. She really likes it when you're down on her level with her, whether you're giving her pets or feeding her pieces of cilantro or parsley. Sweet Potato loves dried papaya treats along with the occasional fresh strawberry, banana, and carrot treat. She does very well in a large/extended x-pen and has not jumped over it (yet!). She is very soft and appreciates head pets and also lets you touch her body.

Sweet Potato is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated against RHDV2 (vaccine needs to be administered annually). House Rabbit Society recommends all rabbits see a rabbit-savvy veterinarian once a year.
