[line][align=center]TRISHA
[/align]
Trisha has really blossomed into a special young lady! She has decided she loves people and seeks their attention with every chance she gets. She is always sticking her nose out as far as she can when people walk by in hopes of having someone stop and pet her nose and forehead.
In the shelter though, very few people ever take notice of the rabbits. Since the rabbits are in the puppy and small dog room, the people going in there have no interest in the rabbits. Still, Trisha bats her eyelashes and tries as hard as she can to have someone take notice of her. She loves it when the rabbit volunteers come in several times a week and hold her and hug her and whisper in her ear and tell her it's ok. She believes us. But the truth is Trisha needs to be adopted.
Since she was spayed, she has calmed down a lot and is ready to meet some boy bunnies! We have several nice females right now if you'd like to arrange a speed date for your boy rabbit. He must be neutered though. See below for contact information to arrange your rabbit's speed date.
Trisha is a young, medium-sized English Spot rabbit who is just unbelievably graceful and beautiful. She is sweet and outgoing and enjoys being petted and held and wants to be with people! She is spayed and ready to go to her forever home.

[align=center]STORM
[/align]
Storm is about a 6 month old Netherland dwarf baby who was found abandoned in a house when a new occupant moved in. This caring person tried for 2 months to rehome the babies with no success.
Storm is a great guy! He is a handsome little fella and would thrive in a stable, quiet environment. Storm has one brown eye and one blue eye. STORM HAS BEEN IN THE SHELTER THE LONGEST AND HIS TIME IS RUNNING OUT! He has been here since before Thanksgiving.
Storm is very interested in people and wants to get to know you. He is inquisitive and friendly, sweet and docile. Sometimes, the room he is in is so noisy that he is scared and doesn't show his true personality. So please make an appointment to come in and get to know him with the help of our rabbit expert, and we'll take him into a separate introduction area where everyone can be more comfortable. Storm is a fantastic rabbit, make no misake.
Storm is neutered and he is taking to his litterbox training very well. He would make a wonderful companion for an apartment dweller or someone leading a stable, quiet lifestyle who would like to be charmed by the charmers of the rabbit world, a little Netherland dwarf gentleman. This charming breed is inquisitive and adventurous, does not like dogs, however, (with the exception of Lassie maybe) but would get along great with cats! Rabbits always tend to dominate over cats in their environment and each species is highly compatible (with the exception of a very large feral cat).
Storm is waiting patiently for someone to come and scoop him up and make all his worries go away and give him treats every day, such as a single slice of apple or banana, or some cranberries. Yum! That is the secret to winning the heart and mind of anyone! Yummy stuff! Storm would probably not like very young children but might enjoy the company of a serious older child. However, an adult should always be his primary caretaker. Storm's life expectancy, being such a small bunny, is 10-15 years so he is a long term commitment. Storm has a great and gregarious personality. Please come in to meet him and reassure him that there is a lifetime of happiness and longevity awaiting him. Come in NOW! What are you waiting for?

[align=center]VIVIEN
[/align]
Vivien is a gorgeous mini-rex. Vivien was left in a box outside the grocery store with a note on her cage saying 'Free'. She spent a terrifying night outside there in the cold shivering and shaking. She is spayed now and learning that some humans are good but she is still scared. We're helping restore her faith in humanity. All she needs is someone who cares, who will take a little time and reassure this poor baby girl that she will be ok.
Nice lettuces like green or red leaf, romaine, help rebuild that trust too and good hay. She is getting these things now and with every chew she takes, she's reevaluating our species. Won't you come in and put in a good word for us? That's all she needs and it really takes so little effort. Isn't there anybody out there who wants to help a frightened little bunny girl? You will be rewarded with a beautiful friend whose fur is soft as velvet and who will trust you and confide in you, need you. It's nice to be needed.

[align=center]SKITTLES
[/align]
Skittles was allegedly a stray. We can tell though that she is very young, a baby still really and very sweet and docile. Skittles is silly, sweet, lovable, huggable, playful, happy, gorgeous, and most of all, kissable!
She is a beautiful Palomino with golden highlighted fur. She is already litterbox trained as rabbits take to this more naturally than cats! Being young, she wants to hop and dance and play! She would make a great family pet and she should be a member of the family as well. She is a wonderful, special, sweet girl!
She is spayed and ready to go home right now! Please come in and save her life - she's so special and her beauty can only really be appreciated in person.

[align=center]BUGGS--TEENY WEENY BUNNY!!!
[/align]
Buggs is a one and half year old Netherlands Dwarf bunny with a sweet and docile personality. His original owner dumped him because she 'didn't want' him anymore because he doesn't get along with other rabbits. Well duh! He's not neutered! So of course he won't get along with any other bun until he's been neutered and relieved of those hormones which cause him to be territorial and defensive! Hello! His neuter appointment is scheduled and he will be 'tutored' very soon.
Neutering is not just for population control, it's also to eliminate obnoxious behavior. So after he is neutered, he should be just as sweet with other rabbits as he is with people. Buggs will be neutered soon. Check back!
Buggs is just a tiny 1.5lb bunny and so he probably should not live with any kind of dogs. But cats would be fine. He also needs to be the pet of an adult and cared for by an adult. Tiny dwarves are often not fond of children and these are exotic pets. No life should be the responsibility of any child. Do we have to explain that? We shouldn't have to. Children can't be responsible for themselves because of how they act; that is, like children, and so they shouldn't be responsible for caring for a life either. Buggs would be the perfect pet for a family who all equally welcome him into their family. His life expectancy is about 10-15 years so if you are interested in Buggs, please consider all the life changes you might experience during that time and whether you can commit to caring for this little life for all that time because that's what he deserves.

[align=center]BEATRIX
[/align]
Beatrix is very sweet, friendly and outgoing, she's a doll baby! She is a senior Holland lop.
Beatrix was surrendered to the shelter on 2-12-08 with an obvious eye infection. She is going to be treated for this on 2-18 so please check back to see how she is doing now that she will be receiving some tender loving care for the first time in her life. Her previous owner said she had "no known medical conditions" yet it couldn't be more obvious that she has a lot of goop coming out of both of her eyes.
We believe her eye condition is caused by the fact that her previous owner used sawdust as bedding and this would be an extreme eye irritant!!!! However, it should be relatively easy to clear up with some medical attention. How easy is that?
Beatrix is a senior rabbit, aged 5.5 years. That is not really senior for most breeds of rabbits but it is for a rabbit who has never been properly cared for. Years of neglect take a toll on a little bunny. She still has a lot of life left in her if some caring bunny lover will help her with that and promise to take good care of her. She needs a special angel. Could it be you?
