My story

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

Hi, I am a part of a family of rabbits looking for a second chance! Unfortunately the children in our last home lost interest and the time to care for us, so we are looking for a home that will spoil us and give us the property time and energy needed to keep rabbits happy! We have lives with older children, other rabbits, and cats. We lived both indoor and outdoors in our previous home, so our litter box skills need some improvement, but once we are spayed/neutered and have a routine we should improve quickly!


My foster says "She is super sweet. She loves being pet on her head. She's very curious and like to explore. She loves getting bananas for a treat! She sometimes gets the zoomies, but also likes to rest in her litter box. She doesn't like being held, but enjoys being near people and getting petted. We're still working with her on litter box training, but for the most part she does well!"

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.
