HAMPSHIRE COUNTY PET ADOPTION PROGRAM Matching Rabbits with People |
A rabbit's gestation period is only ONE month! This is one reason why rabbits are so overpopulated. *********************** The Dutch is one of the oldest known rabbit breeds. ********************** A rabbit's diet should be mostly grass hays (Timothy being the main one) not pellets. |
| BUGS, JR. English Spot / Rhinelander Mix 5 years We got Bugs Jr. (aka BJ or Bugs) from a "free rabbits" situation in August 2008. He is a nice guy but he is a little shy also. We are not sure of his exact breed. Like any bunny he loves to hop around and just be a bunny. He must have daily out-time. He enjoys his daily salad but ever since he came to us he has never been a fan of hay. Most of the Timothy hay he is given he just makes into a bed. He loves to have his back and sides scratched. He needs a home where he will be indoors and a member of the family. Take a look at Bugs in his video! |
| RAISON English Spot/Rhinelander 5 years We got Raison from a "free rabbits" situation in August 2008. We are not real sure of her exact breed. She has scar tissue on one of her eyes. It has been checked out by our vet and is no danger to her. She can still see out of it, but not as well. This doesn't affect her from acting like a normal bunny, though! Raison is a shy girl. She needs someone with patience and understanding of bunnies. She is a pretty big bunny and she loves toys. She must have daily out-time. She likes her daily salad but has never been a big hay eater. Raison needs a home where she will be a member of the family and be given lots of love everyday. Check out Raison's Video! |
A rabbit can be litter box trained (like a cat!) ******************************** Spaying or neutering your rabbit can give them a longer & healthier life. ******************************** The smallest rabbit weighs about 2 pounds while the largest weighs about 20 pounds (or even more!). |
Unlike dogs and cats, rabbits do not get quite as many tests, vaccinations and preventions. Unfortunately, we have not been able to get our rabbits spayed or neutered. We do highly recommend this, though. The adoption fee for our rabbits is $25.00. $10.00 will be returned to you upon proof of spay/neuter. The adoption fee is applied to the total cost of each rabbit's food and any veterinary care. Because we have had our rabbits so long we have already spent well over the adoption fee on them. Raison needs a foster home. For more information on fostering please click here! |
