Are you looking for a friendly rabbit who loves pets and exploring his world? Then Mr. Kringle is your bun! He adores navigating all corners of his room during floor time, and is often seen poking his head out of the windows of his cardboard house and chewing ‘just a little bit more off the sides’ to make the windows more accessible. When his excursions are through, he likes to go back in his enclosure and settle down for a snuggle with his best buddy Stocking, and some head strokes and ear massages from his foster mom. When it comes to food, Mr. Kringle is there! He loves to eat, and is not picky about what it is. Lettuce…check, cilantro…check, fennel…ooo, what’s this? Check! If all this sounds just too good to resist, you’re invited to read the rest of this profile to continue to get to know this amazing rabbit who will win your heart!
