Reginald - Rex Rabbit for Adoption in Salinas, California

Hi, I'm Reginald! Would you believe I was born right here at the SPCA? While I've enjoyed growing up here, I can't wait to find my forever home! Please pardon my appearance, my brothers gave me a haircut, but it will grow back! I'm looking for a home where I will have plenty of space to explore, play with toys, and lounge in a cozy spot. I love eating fresh hay, and the occasional veggie and fruit as a treat! Do I sound like a good fit for you? Come meet me today!

Rabbits are the third most common pet (after cats and dogs), they are also the third most common pet to be surrendered to shelters. It is important that when committing to taking care of a rabbit for the entirety of its life that you are prepared for that commitment. Rabbits live roughly 8-12 years with proper indoor care. Rabbits require annual vet exams much like a dog or cat to ensure their teeth are growing at a healthy rate and to check their weight, ears, heart, etc. If kept in an enclosed space, rabbits need time outside of their enclosure to exercise daily. Some families have integrated their rabbit into their home having a 'free range' rabbit much like a cat or dog. Having room to exercise is critical for your rabbits mental and physical health. Not only does this help your rabbit from becoming bored and destructive but it helps their delicate gastrointestinal system properly move food throughout their body. Adult rabbits should be provided with unlimited hay (Timothy or Orchard Grass), a small portion (1⁄4 cup) of rabbit pellets, and a small handful of fresh rabbit safe vegetables daily (some examples include: parsley, cilantro, dandelion greens).
