RESOLVED: Help! My Bun (Nala) needs a new home :(

I never expected to have to do this...but I'm going to have to but my baby Nala up for adoption :cry1:. I just recently graduated college and am living at home with my mom, Nala, and Simone (Cocker Spaniel). I was planning on moving out West, and was hoping to bring Nala with me....but... I was recently offered the opportunity to move out to Oregon to run professionally. This is a commitment which means lots of travel and is a huge time commitment.

I have treated Nala like a princess, and am afraid I would not be able to give her the attention she deserves (especially if I'm not around for days and days at a time). She is a pretty independent bunny, but she is very loving and enjoys being pet. She is absolutely in love with my dog Simone, so there is hope that she may work well with other buns. Unfortunately I have never introduced her to any, so that's up in the air.

She is very precious to me, so I want to make sure she goes to a home who is able to give her the attention I gave her and then some. I can't keep her home because my mom already has our dog to take care of and she works three jobs. I am most likely moving around November, so I really hope I can find a good home for her by then. Please contact me if you are interested in adopting my beloved family member so we can talk more about her and her possible new home. I came here first because I know she will be respected by members on this forum, and I would love to stay in touch with her and her new home. Here are some pictures:











And here is the blog I used to write about her:

If anyone is interested or able please let me know...I can't help but feel like I'm abandoning her :tears2:

Thank you very much! I completely understand. If I had the time and money I would have way too many furry family members....

oh she is beautiful!!!! its to bad your so far away!

Wish I was closer ; love those Tri's !!! I could've taken her for a while while you were finding her a permanent home, but I'm too far.

Love that last pic. of her, looks like she's praying for a good place to live !

Best of luck, KT

If you can bring her to idaho I will gladly take her. How pretty. I promise I can give her a loving home. my rabbits are so spoiled they getread to everynight. lol. Let me know

Isn't Idaho on the way to Oregon?

Thanks everyone, I'm glad to see so much support! Unfortunately there is only one family car right now which has to stay with my mom...so I'll be flying to OR. Otherwise I would have been willing to bring her along...

Thats ok. flying an animal is a big hassle. I hope she finds a good home and yes Idaho is on the way to oregon but trying to fly an animal is a big hassle with quarantines and all of that. good luck

Like everyone else, wish we were closer as she's just a darling and we love the pictures.ray:

Also something to note, she has not been spayed! Maybe that's why she likes my dog so much.....

This is just an idea...and maybe not the greatest - - - the ARBA nationals are in MN at the end of Oct., and if you could connect with anyone going there; they could bring Nala with them and someone else on this forum ( who may also be going to the nationals) can pick her up there. Just a thought.

I want to go sooo bad , it's the only time the ARBA Ntl's are within driving distance; but my hubby says " we'll see..."

It is very possible to fly a rabbit to Oregon. A number of members here have flown rabbits long distance more than once.

Continental is pretty good.

Here is a bit of info about flying rabbits.
From our library...

Very doable

Flying with some airlines is possible. I have had animals flown to me and sent some to others. Not sure what cost is at this time though.

that would work if you could fly her to Oregon my dad is up that way all the time with his trucking and could pick her up on the way home. where are you moving to in oregon?

If it comes down to it I will keep both options in mind...I really appreciate the help! I just want to make sure this transition is the least stressful for her, so I'm going to keep all options open and determine the best fit.

thats fine, just let me know what you decide.

My offer still stands as well.
If we can get her to Colorado she has a good home with me.

Haha, ok thanks! I'll keep everyone updated, and if anyone relatively local is interested let me know...
