My story

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

CHECK YOUR SPAM/JUNK FOLDER IF YOU DON'T RECEIVE A REPLY TO AN INQUIRY

INDOOR ONLY HOMES

Festus was rescued on April 12, 2024 from a horse race track in Southern California where someone abandoned 15 rabbits just after Easter.

Festus is an adorable bunny with those helicopter ears. He's slightly shy but enjoys sitting calmly on your lap for reassuring pets and kisses.

He is a small rabbit with an estimated date of birth of January or February 2024.

He was neutered on April 22, 2024.

Festus should start out living in an exercise pen (x-pen) otherwise known as a puppy pen. He can have that as his home base or transition to a room or a section of a room or free roaming. A cage/hutch is not recommended unless the door is open and an x-pen can be placed around it.

Please be over 21 if inquiring about a rabbit.

Festus can be seen by appointment in Lake Elsinore after a questionnaire is completed or a phone consultation conducted. On adoption day, plan to spend approximately one hour at the rescue going over paperwork and general rabbit care information. Delivery is available up to 100 miles from Lake Elsinore.

PLEASE consult with the rescue before you purchase rabbit supplies so you can be directed to the least expensive and most appropriate rabbit essentials, especially if you’ve never had the pleasure of owning a rabbit! Your local big chain pet store is probably NOT the best place to buy rabbit supplies!

If you are seeking a rabbit as a companion for your existing rabbit, your rabbit should be spayed/neutered. Male/female bondings are usually recommended. See the following link for more information: https://rabbit.org/care/bonding/
