Spritz was rescued with his siblings from a bunny explosion case where 28 rabbits were living in a basement. He was rescued at just 4 weeks old and has been looking for his forever home since. Spritz is a fantastic house guest, as he has great litter box skills and loves to keep his foster parents company, while demanding pets and cuddles from them. He is very sweet and gentle, as well as spunky. Exploring his foster home is one of his favorite hobbies, so free roam time at his forever home is important. One of Spritz other favorite activities is eating! He has a great appetite and loves eating hay and a variety of greens. Along with his curious and sometimes shy personality, Spritz is quite the handsome guy. We think he has beautiful eyes, although he is often overlooked because of them. Sometimes they change from ruby red to violet or blue in certain lighting! Spritz is on the search for a loving forever home that has a bunny companion for him to be friends with. He is ready to start speed dating to find his perfect match!
Adoption fee is $125.

HRS Chicago generally follows the adoption policy as set by the National House Rabbit Society. We ask that you review the policy before proceeding. Here is a link to the policy. http://www.rabbit.org/adoption/adoption-policies.html The adopter and primary care giver must be over 24 years of age.
Below is a brief description of our adoption process so you understand how we operate.
Our adoption fee is $125 per rabbit to help partially cover the cost of an initial medical exam, vaccines and spay or neuter surgery. The adoption process starts with the prospective adopter being sent an adoption application and then being interviewed by phone by our Foster/Adoption Director. If the director and the prospective adopter feel that adoption is right for everyone, the process passes to our adoption director who will try to match the adoptive family with an appropriate rabbit. It is important that we understand the potential adopter’s home environment so we can match them with a rabbit who will fit into their lifestyle. Rabbits have distinct personalities with definite likes and dislikes. This is especially important if the new rabbit will have another rabbit friend. We find that adoptions are more successful when the personalities of the rabbit and the adoptive family are well matched.
Our foster rabbits are in a network of foster homes throughout the Chicago area. We attempt to match potential adopters with a foster rabbit in their local area. If you would prefer to be able to go into a shelter to view the animals, there are a few Chicago area shelters that have good adoption programs. You may also want to check with one of them.
