Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Taco is a remarkably sweet, curious, lovable boy. He's always ready to greet you and took no time at all to feel comfortable and down for quality time. He's really one of the sweetest boys. He's not at all bothered by his neighbor either but please understand that doesn't make them friends.
This rabbit is suspected to have an old injury to his right eye, which has left the eye likely non-visual. It is possible that removal of this eye will be indicated in the future if it becomes painful (such as if glaucoma develops).
Important information to know before you adopt or purchase a new friend! Rabbits have a long lifespan, and can live on average 8 to 12 years with proper care. Rabbits are not a cheap or easy pet for most households - they eat a LOT (daily rabbit pellets, a constant supply of hay, and fresh produce!) and require a lot of exercise, needing a bunny proof area to expend their energy to stay happy and healthy (think similar to puppy-proofing a room). Rabbits will not be happy spending most of their time alone in a cage - it is critical for owners to spend time petting and properly handling their new rabbits to help get them comfortable in their new environment and bond with you. Speaking of bonding, spaying/neutering a rabbit helps with this! Not only that, but it also helps prevent accidental litters, medical conditions such as ovarian/testicular cancer, and helps promote litter box training and reducing sassy behaviors such as biting or thumping. Every rabbit will have a different personality, but most if not all will need enrichment! This includes bunny-safe objects to chew on to keep their (constantly growing) teeth in check, tunnels to run through, boxes to play in, etc. Rabbits can be phenomenal, long-lived companions when cared for properly, but they are not right for everyone and should not be adopted impulsively. Rabbits, like dogs and cats, should have yearly checkups with your veterinarian and should be on monthly flea/tick preventative if they have access to the outdoors.
