Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Pellets: 1/4 cup Alfalfa Oxbow Young Essentials Pellets
Hay: Unlimited alfalfa hay
Salad: 1x a day 1/2 cup spring mix, parsley, cilantro, romaine lettuce
Meet Mallo! The curious man with a heart of gold. Mallo is very smart and learns quickly. He loves to explore and investigate every nook and cranny in and out of his enclosure. He has already learned to use a litter box well. He does all his urinations in his litter box and most of his poops! He loves his supervised play time and his favorite toys are willow bark chew toys and timothy hay mats. He can be a little shy with interactions at first, but once he warms up, will climb all over you to get where he is going! He likes to get pets when he knows they are coming but would prefer not to get picked up. Mallo has also shown a lot of curiosity and gentleness around kids and would be well suited to a home with children who know how to be calm and patient with rabbits. Mallo originally came to us along with several other young rabbits from another shelter and is eager to find his forever home.
Mallo arrived with suspected bite wounds on both of his ears that resulted in aural hematomas (swelling of the ears). The right one healed and scarred up on its own but the left required surgical correction. He has recovered well but it has left him with narrower ear canals that could make him more prone to ear infections down the line. His doctors also hope that the scar tissue will reduce over time and allow his ear canals to return to normal. With a little monitoring of his ears, he should go on to live a happy life, just like any other rabbit.
Neutered 9/4/24
Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV) is a highly contagious and deadly disease caused by a calicivirus that affects both wild and domestic rabbits. It is not contagious to people or other animals. For the first time, the virus is causing deaths in rabbits and hares native to North America and is spreading rapidly. UPDATE: In May 2021, California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) has confirmed new cases of RHDV in rabbits in Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Ventura County. In addition to detection of RHDV2 in wild cottontail rabbits and jackrabbits, RHDV2 has been confirmed in domestic rabbits on 50 premises, including a detection in a feral domestic rabbit.
