Lionhead and American Rabbits Available for Adoption

Eggo feels right at home in new foster, Lindsey D's living room! Eggo said she needs to be a free roam bun. She was hopping out of the pen, lol. She is not shy and would be a great family bunny!



She just came into the rescue after a kind neighbor saved her. Her owner didn't want her and said they were planning to k*ll her!! Thank goodness for caring people! Eggo is such a sweet girl. We can't imagine anyone not loving her!

We'll get her scheduled for a spay soon. She's currently located in Rockledge. Reach out if you'd like to meet her!

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

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 American rabbit breed is known for its sleek and medium sized body, erect ears, and distinctive red or blue eyes. This breed is docile, making it an excellent choice for families and first time rabbit owners. Americans come in a variety of colors and are prized for their show quality fur which is short, soft, and easy to groom. With a calm temperament and playful nature, the American rabbit is a popular choice as both a pet and a show animal.

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.
