Tahloola - Mini Rex Rabbit for Adoption in Melbourne, Florida

Tahloola is a beautiful 3-year-old Mini Rex rabbit who came into the rescue when she was just a baby. She was originally found near a church in Melbourne.

Tahloola is a sweet, curious girl who loves to binky, play, explore, and spend time with her people.

Tahloola is spayed and has established litter habits, although she may need some time to adjust to a new environment.

Sadly, Tahloola recently lost her bunny brother, and it has been difficult for her and her family. Her family feels she may be happiest in a home with more space to run and explore, and possibly another rabbit companion. Any introduction to another rabbit must be slow, supervised, and handled through proper bonding practices.

Tahloola currently lives with a dog and does well with dogs that respect her space. She has not been around cats. Although she enjoys being held, children stress her, so a home without young children would be best.

Can you give this very special girl the loving, permanent home she deserves.Currently located in Malabar.

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.
