Bugs was originally adopted in February 2023 but was sadly returned in June 2024. His first family loved him very much, especially their young son, but like we had explained from the beginning, rabbits are always a family pet. The responsibility for their care and daily routine always falls on the parents. A year later, before heading out on summer travels, the family made the difficult decision to bring him back to us.
Bugs is a sweet, curious, and relaxed boy who absolutely thrives on attention. Heās extremely friendly and social, often following you around and demanding head scratches like a little puppy. His favorite trick is to run to the edge of his enclosure the moment he sees you coming, ready for love.
Heās easy to handle, loves being petted, and even enjoys sitting calmly on laps (our fosterās young children can hold him without any scratching or fuss). While heās not overly high-energy, he does the occasional happy binky and has a knack for turning cardboard boxes into his own little obstacle courses. His favorite greens are spring mix and carrots, though heāll never say no to a bite of banana.
Bugs is very good with his litter box, missing only a few poops near the box each day. He does need a family willing to bunny-proof their home ā his teeth are powerful, and he wonāt hesitate to test baseboards, rugs, or even a good book if itās left in reach.
Ideal Home
Bugs would do best with a family that can give him plenty of love and interaction while also being patient as he gets comfortable. He can be a little territorial with new people at first and may give a small nip, but once he trusts you, heās fiercely loyal.
A Few Things to Know
⢠He LOVES to be pet and will never say no to head scratches.
⢠Heās adventurous, so keep an eye on him when free roaming.
⢠His chewing power is no joke ā bunny-proofing is a must!
Bugs is a loyal, affectionate bunny who is just waiting for the right family to give him the love and stability he deserves.

At Southeast FL Rabbit Rescue, we believe that every rabbit and guinea pig deserves a loving forever home. Our rescue is 100% volunteer-run and operates entirely through donations and the kindness of our foster families. When you choose to adopt a rescue rabbit or guinea pig from us, youāre not only saving one precious life but also creating an opportunity for us to rescue another animal in need.
All of our rabbits and guinea pigs are spay / neutered and receive annual wellness exams from experienced exotic veterinarians to ensure that they are healthy. They are housed in loving foster homes where they receive daily socialization and rabbits are litter-box trained.
