Hobnob - Flemish Giant and New Zealand Rabbit for Adoption in Columbia, Maryland

Meet Hobnob

His foster parents describe Hobnob with one word: **gregarious**. It couldn't be more fitting.

This handsome Flemish Giant mix has a big personality and an even bigger heart. He's playful, affectionate, endlessly entertaining, and happiest when he's interacting with his people. Hobnob absolutely loves head pets and will happily melt into contented tooth purrs while you shower him with attention.

He's also wonderfully curious. Hobnob wants to know what's happening, inspect what you're doing, and generally be part of the action. That curiosity comes with one funny little quirk—unexpected movement sometimes gets him so excited that he'll grab or mouth moving objects. Setting down his water bowl, rearranging a towel, or quickly moving something in his space may inspire him to "help!" Once you learn his body language and understand what triggers this behavior, it's easy to manage. In fact, a few reassuring head pets while you're working around him are often all it takes to keep him happily occupied.

If you're looking for a rabbit who quietly sits in the background, Hobnob probably isn't your guy. But if you'd love an engaging, interactive companion with a great sense of humor, you'll find him incredibly rewarding. He's looking for an adopter who appreciates rabbit body language, enjoys interacting with their pets, and is ready to share life with a bunny whose enthusiasm and affection are as big as his personality.

He's in Hampton Roads and a meeting can be arranged there - transportation to Maryland can also be arranged.
