Butternut and Lolly are a bonded pair that was adopted from our rescue nearly a year ago. They had to be returned because the owner is active in the military and has to move overseas and cannot take the rabbits with them. Originally we pulled them from Davidson County Animal Shelter in Lexington NC where they were surrendered by their own with 7 other rabbits who we took all of them in at the time. Butternut is the biological kit of Lolly who she is bonded with.

The shelter describes me as a “Daisy” which means that I like to explore, groom, and I will present for petting and may occasionally be seen to flop, binky, or thump. I am not shy and I will rarely hide in a shelter. In homes, Daisies particularly like to be stroked and will often present to a person for petting. Behaviors will be essentially the same in the shelter and home environment. Daises are probably the best rabbit for the adopter seeking a rabbit who will tolerate sitting in a person’s lap and being petted. Daises usually do well with other rabbits and people (including children) because of these laid back personality traits.
