Meet Shiro! Shiro came into our care in May 2026 alongside his siblings and is finally ready to find his forever home! This sweet, gentle bunny is a quiet soul who enjoys peaceful downtime and long, cozy naps. Shiro can be slow to trust, so he'll need a patient adopter who is willing to let him build a relationship at his own pace. His beautiful long fur will also require regular brushing and grooming to keep him comfortable and tangle-free. With time, patience, and plenty of quiet companionship, Shiro is sure to blossom into a wonderful friend.
