BeBe and Jetta - Angora Rabbit and Lionhead Rabbit for Adoption in Melbourne, Florida

Interested in adopting? Please apply here: bit.ly/Scbadopterapp

Our poofy pair, Bebe and Jetta are coming back to us after a brief adoption. Though no fault of their own, their adopter realized that they don't have the time to spend with the buns.

These beautiful girls have already been in multiple foster homes and have waited their whole lives (almost a year and half) for a furever family!

Bebe is a white Angora and Jetta is a black lionhead. They are actually sisters from the same accidental litter from a pair of ours who were misgendered.

Bebe is more outgoing while Jetta is a little timid. But both are very well behaved and sweet. They are spayed and great with their litterbox. And they prefer a laid-back home.

Angoras need daily brushing if they are not trimmed down short. They are very prone to matting and not recommended for a first time bunny family. Their adopter will need to be comfortable handling bunnies, brushing, and trimming.

Pairs are great because not only are they cute together, you don't have to worry about a bunny being lonely when you are occupied. Bunnies are happier with a friend. And who doesn't want two cute little fluffs to play with?

They are spayed and can't wait to find their forever homes! They are currently located in Kissimmee.

-----------------------

The adoption fee helps to offset the spay/neuter cost. It's important to do to prevent cancer and improve litterbox habits. Our vets provide a very discounted rate so this is a great deal! Our buns also receive a wellness check and parasite test.

About bunnies:
First time rabbit adopter? We can send you information about housing and care. You should also know:

- Bonding bunnies - both buns must be fixed or there will be territory issues and aggression. Read more on the House Rabbit Society website. Or contact us about low cost spay/neuter.

- Bunnies are NOT starter pets. They need (indoor) space and attention like a small dog would. They need hay, pellets and greens daily. And any health issues (not eating, etc.) require immediate attention.

- Bunnies are NOT a good fit for young kids. They are fragile, startle easily, usually don't like to be handled, and do not do well under stress like the general household noise that comes with little ones. Trust us, it's a lot of work you don't want to take on if you're caring for small kids. If your little one absolutely wants to meet a bunny, we can set up a visit with one of our more mellow bunnies and there's no commitment involved :)

- Bunnies can be somewhat skittish but they are also fun. If patient and understand that bunnies get comfortable with people on their own terms, you'll make a bunny friend. Spending time on the floor with them and offering treats is a great way to bond with them.

- Bunnies MUST be housed indoors. RHDV-2, a highly contagious and fatal wild rabbit disease in now in Florida and transmitted in the ground. Domestic rabbits cannot tolerate the heat. They also need to be safe from predators and parasites like ear mites. They will be much happier being a part of the family, inside.

The Angora rabbit is a charming and gentle breed known for its luxurious wool, which is highly prized for its softness and warmth. Originating from Ankara, Turkey, these rabbits have long, silky fur that requires regular grooming to prevent matting. There are several varieties of Angora rabbits, including English, French, and Giant, each with unique characteristics. With their docile nature and stunning appearance, Angora rabbits make wonderful companions for experienced rabbit owners willing to devote time to their grooming needs.

The Lionhead rabbit breed is known for its distinctive mane of wool encircling its head, resembling that of a lion. Characterized by their small size, charming demeanor, and playful nature, Lionheads make excellent pets for both families and individuals alike. These rabbits come in a wide range of colors and patterns, with their distinguishing feature being the wool mane that requires regular grooming. With their friendly and social personalities, Lionhead rabbits are popular among rabbit enthusiasts seeking a lovable and unique companion.
