My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

18-47
Jessica
Spayed Female
12 Months Old
Lionhead
White / Brown
Weight 4.0

I was pulled along with 137 other rabbits from a hoarding breeding situation. The local Sheriff's Office and Animal Control were charging my previous owner with animal cruelty because our medical needs and basic needs were not being provided in a proper manner. I was kept dirty horrific conditions and many of us had medical conditions and were suffering from Pasterurella multocida.

The shelter describes me as a Rose. These means that I have a mind of my own and it is evident even in the shelter environment. I am often seen chinning, exploring, head bumping, and presenting for petting. I may have also been seen binkying, headshaking, playing with toys. A few may tail flag or thump occasionally if they see someone or something they dislike. Hiding and cowering are almost never seen in these rabbits. Roses demand a great deal of attention in permanent homes and are not shy in making their demands known. A few of these may get along with other rabbits if they are submissive, but many Roses actively dislike other rabbits and may be difficult to bond, preferring human companionship to do their bidding.

ROSES BEHAVIOR MARKERS
• INDEPENDENT AND ACTIVE
• DEMANDING
• ALPHA RABBIT
• MAY NOT BOND WELL WITH OTHER RABBITS

NOTICE: Because these bunnies are prone to re-breaking due to stressful situations we will only do meet and greets for all the hoarding case bunnies by appointment only. They will NOT be transported to adoption events unless an appointment is made prior.
