My story

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

Meet Yams — your new zooming, honking, treat-loving sidekick!

Yams is a young, active, playful girl who comes with one setting: GO! She loves to zoom around her pen with Olympic-level enthusiasm, darting through her tube, hopping onto furniture, and excavating her hay-filled digging box like she’s searching for buried treasure. After she’s burned through her sass and speed, she’ll happily stretch out for a well-earned snooze, looking extremely proud of herself.

This confident little adventurer gets along well with her foster family’s two small dogs — she’ll even let them wander into her space without a fuss. She’s less impressed with Zeb the resident rabbit (she thinks boys are annoying, thank you very much), so if you have a bunny who respects boundaries, she might bond in the future — she’s still young, so the potential is there. With humans, she’s been a champ! She lives with a 14-year-old and has handled visits from younger kids like a pro, graciously accepting pets and snacks.

Yams is full of adorable quirks. She’s a happy honker (especially at treat o’clock), gives sweet little kisses, and has totally nailed her daily routine. When she hears “Who needs to brush their teeth?” she pops up like a meerkat, ready for her nightly pea & mint garden stick. She’d also make a great work-from-home buddy — she’s curious and social but knows how to settle in and chill.

With proper bunny-proofing (she has sampled a baseboard or two — quality control, obviously), Yams could be a free-roamer. She adores having a cozy zone to retreat to and LOVES hanging out on the roof of her Cottontail Cottage. She’s not an escape artist or a jumper, so her pen setup has been just fine.

A few notes for her future family: she’s not wild about carriers and doesn’t adore being picked up, but she tolerates it. The good news? She’s a fantastic eater and is fully litter trained. Health-wise, she’s a thriving, happy, healthy young bun who’s ready for her forever home.

If you’re looking for a playful, charming, routine-loving bunny with zoomies for days and honks for every occasion, Yams might be your perfect match!

Additional adoption info

Rabbit Advocates is committed to rescuing homeless and abandoned domestic rabbits, and helping them find excellent forever homes. Because these rabbits live with foster providers as members of the family, foster providers can offer helpful information about the rabbit’s personality, favorite foods, housing needs, bunny-proofing tips, and any other questions applicants may have. All Rabbit Advocates bunnies are spayed/neutered prior to adoption.
