I have two rabbits that need to find homes.Sadly, they are my rabbits and I have to rehome them. I need to be sure that they go to a good home where they will be kept as indoor companion animals.
There are a few reasons I cannot keep them but the most important is that I am no longer able to provide the level of care that I once did which is unfair to them.
I used to live in Toronto but I now live in New Liskeard where I suspect rabbits are kept mostly for show, meat or as outdoor "pets". I will be trying to find a suitable home here as well but I don't know if I will find someone here who will look after them as well as I would like. They do not live in the same pen as one of them is not entirely friendly with other quadrupeds, but they are used to being neighbours. As long as they each go to a home where they are given lots of attention they will thrive.
Yero is a castor mini-rex, neutered. He is very well socialized with people and is very used to handling. You can do almost anything with him and he will cooperate. He was spoiled when he was young and does try to nip when he's not getting his way but doesn't do this with people he knows well. He is not compatible with dogs or cats as he will try to attack them. I believe he could live with another rabbit with a very looooooong socialization period, but I wouldn't recommend it as he can be unpredictable with other rabbits. He would do best in a home that could give him lots of one-on-one attention (especially grooming, a favour which he readily returns!). He's a very sweet boy who used to lay with his head on my shoulder while I read.
Lady is a black and white spayed lop. I believe she would do well with a rabbit companion as she is very interested in her neighbour Yero despite his obvious dislike for her. She is alright around cats once she has gotten used to them but has never interacted with them beyond looking and sniffing through bars. She is TERRIFIED of dogs. She is not nippy or aggressive in any way but it takes a looooong time to earn her trust. She was originally bought by a family who kept her in a guinea pig cage (she's a pretty big girl) before going to THS and then coming home with me a few years ago. She's very adventurous and loves to explore new environments. She has a very animated personality and is a pleasure to sit back and watch.
Both of them are used to eating oxbow hay (a variety of everything but alfalfa) and pellets (timothy). I switch their hay often so they aren't stuck on one particular type. They would each come with some food and hay depending on how much is left when I find a home. As mentioned, both rabbits are altered. They each have their own 4x4 pen. (Lady's is double the height because she's a jumper!) They have a water bottle, water bowl (which attaches to the pen), food bowl and litterbox each that would go with them as well as some other accessories.
Anyone interested can send me a private message here and I will provide my email address so we can discuss it further.
Thanks
