My story

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

How this pet arrived:
Peppermint was brought into care by their previous owner on October 22, 2024.

At SDHS:
Peppermint has been microchipped, vaccinated, and neutered. He is now ready for his new home!

Why this pet is the one for you:
Peppermint is a sweet little rabbit who is looking for his human soulmate! Peppermint, like all rabbits, will need a large x-pen/playpen like enclosure with at least 12 square feet of room to stretch out. Rabbits are very easy to litter-box train, and Peppermint is a smart bun! He will also need plenty of daily time to explore outside of his pen and hang with his human! Rabbits are intelligent and complex animals who do well in families with humans who understand that they are prey animals, and do not always enjoy being held/picked up. The best way to bond with Peppermint is to spend time with him outside of his pen, and shower him with plenty of cilantro, Romaine, and Timothy hay! He will let you know when he is happy by giving you a bunny binky (a hop/ twist in the air)! Rabbits usually do best with older children who can respect their boundaries. When rabbits get the space and enrichment they need, they often form deep bonds with their humans in the same way a dog or cat would. If it's your dream to have a floppy-earred buddy to eat salads with and snuggle (on his level) then Peppermint may be the rabbit for you! To learn more, email us at sdcadoptions@sdhumane.org and ask about him today!

Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV2) is a highly contagious disease affecting rabbits. Due to its presence in San Diego County, all rabbits will receive a mandatory RHDV2 vaccine before adoption. Guests will be charged $12 for this vaccine upon adoption.
