My story

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

Bramba is an incredibly sweet boy although very shy the first day or two. He's very fast to adjust and food is definitely a way to help him along in this. He's doing very good with litterbox training and will undoubtedly have it down in no time. He's much faster to come out of hiding if you lay down on the floor and let him come check you out. As with any rabbit proper bonding approach needs to be used if you have another rabbit you're wanting to get a friend for, they will fight if you just throw them in same space together. He's not bothered at all by his neighbor who is another rabbit but that isn't the same as them being friends. He's a very curious boy and likes to inspect anything you do in his space.

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.
