Annie
New Zealand White
Age: 9 years 6 months
Weight: 7.2 lbs.
In 2003 a good samaritan called Indiana HRS to report that an albino rabbit had been hopping around an Indianapolis neighborhood for 3 days when temperatures were in the 90s with heat indices in the 100s. A team of five Indiana HRS volunteers partnered with the good samaritan and her friends to come to the rabbit's aid. We discovered a skinny, hot, tired, New Zealand White, covered in grease/oil from hiding under cars.
Annie was recently returned to foster care along with her "husbun", Wagner. She wears the pants in their relationship, and takes good care of him. She's a curious rabbit, sticking her nose in wherever she thinks there might be something to explore. She enjoys being petted, and even though she has Wagner to attend to her grooming and cuddling needs she's happy to settle down beside you for some affection.
Annie and Wagner will be adopted together and must be housed as a pair. Can you give this cute couple the home they deserve?

Wagner
Mixed
Age: 10 years
Weight: 5 lbs.
Wagner was recently returned to foster care with his bondmate, Annie. While Annie wears the pants, Wagner makes sure her eyes and ears are clean and cuddles up to keep her warm. He can be a little bit timid in new situations, but he's still inquisitive, and as long as Annie is around he's happy to oblige you if you want to give him some affection.
Wagner and Annie will be adopted out together, and must be housed as a pair. Can you give this cute couple the home they deserve?

Liv
lop mix
Age: 8 years 10 months
Weight: 7.5 lbs.
Liv was returned to foster care after 7 years in her forever home. She is understandably a little confused, but is adjusting well.
She has magic ears--she mostly has them down, but can also hold them up or let them stick out helicopter style! She has a fantastic gentle personality and is a real coy beauty.
Liv has experience around dogs and cats, and once in her new home will work best with a home that is calm and not too boisterous.
She's around 7 LB, and may be interested in a bunny boyfriend.

Lucky
English Spot X
Age: 8 years 4 months
Weight: 5 lbs.
Lucky came to HRS after being at the Humane Society for several months! He is an active guy who would like lots of playtime in his adoptive home. Lucky loves to show off when let out to play with lots of twisty jumps, digging under blankets, and climbing on boxes, and then he follows it up with a satisfied flop of happiness (or several flops)! Lucky seems to adore petting and will let you stroke him for hours, unless he happens to be having an attitude moment, when he'll "box" you with his front feet instead! Because of this, we recommend he go to families with older kids only, or an adult home would be great too.
Lucky has great litter box habits, though he does best with a large litter box with extra-high sides. He also prefers to have something to dig inside his condo - old phone books make great shredding material, and provide him with mental stimulation and something to do!
Can you provide Lucky a forever home where he can be cherished?

Hoover
Californian
Age: 5 years 11 months
Weight: 5.8 lbs.
Hoover and his brother Mack were dumped at the shelter with four other siblings when they were just little babies! The others found homes, but Mack and Hoover had to grow up homeless.
Now they're ready for a real home, where they can play and explore together and cuddle when they go to sleep in a safe place of their own. Hoover is a little smaller than his brother and is bolder with strangers, coming up to meet people and enjoying petting.
The boys were recently returned to foster care due to a change in family circumstance. Please check back for updates as they settle into foster care.

Mack
Californian
Age: 5 years 11 months
Weight: 7.5 lbs.
Mack and his brother Hoover were dumped at the shelter with four other siblings when they were just little babies! The others found homes, but Mack and Hoover had to grow up homeless.
Now they're teenagers, ready for a real home where they can play and explore together and cuddle when they go to sleep in a safe place of their own. Mack is the bigger bunny of this pair and has lighter gray on his ears and nose. He's more shy than Hoover when a new person comes by--it's funny to see this big bunny try to hide behind his little brother!
Mack and Hoover were recently returned to foster care due to a change in family circumstances. Please check back for updates as they settle back into foster care!

Melina
English Spot mix
Age: 6 years 2 months
Weight: 6.3 lbs.
Updated Dec 2008
Melina was dumped at the shelter in August 2006, shuffled to an adoption program then back to the shelter.
Melina has evolved into a spunky, spirited rabbit who is enjoying her quiet environment and her new bigger cage in foster care. When out of her enclosure, Melina loves to be petted and will hop up to her foster family for pets.
Melina has some insecurity about food which will require consistent behavior, patience and understanding. Her foster mom is willing to provide pointers to set Melina up for success in her forever home.
Her foster family has discovered that Melina loves sugar-free papaya tablets. Melina has progressed to the point where she does binkies when we walk into the room and takes the papaya tablets from our fingers very gently. This is tremendous progress for a rabbit with food insecurities!
Melina has developed a special friendship with one of her foster mom's rabbits through a shared barricade. Melina would do well in a pairing situation with the right rabbit. Melina would thrive in a home under the care of a person with prior rabbit experience. Can you provide Melina a forever home where she will be loved and cherished on her terms?

JuJu
English Angora
Age: 6 years 9 months
Weight: 9 lbs.
Updated Dec 2008
Juju is a shelter rescue who found her way to IHRS foster care after her adoptive Mom and special IHRS volunteer tragically died in an automobile accident (May 2007). Consider honoring her Mom's memory to Indiana domestic rabbits by providing Juju or another IHRS foster rabbit a forever home.
JuJu is a very fun rabbit who is very curious, nosing into everything when she is out for run time. Juju is a sweet girl who loves to be petted. Angoras require frequent brushing and/or monthly hair cuts to keep their coats tangle-free and manageable:
http://www.rabbit.org/care/angora.html
Grooming her is easy since her former Mom handled her often for this task.
JuJu has been diagnosed with persistent upper respiratory infections. When being treated, JuJu may require as many as two oral medications and two medications that are delivered by nebulizer daily. JuJu is model patient, we can tell that she feels better after her "breathing treatments."
Juju's ongoing veterinary monitoring and treatment are very expensive. Donations to defray her medical costs would be greatly appreciated.
Juju will require an owner with significant experience caring for ill rabbits and an understanding that Juju can transmit her infection to other rabbits living in residence. Can you provide Juju the home of her dreams?

Bella
Dutch
Age: 4 years 10 months
Weight: 3.75 lbs.
Updated Oct 2011
Bella was adopted from us in November 2007, but was recently surrendered to a municipal shelter by her adopter after having a home with him for 4 years. She's an older bunny now, but still very sweet. Hopefully, someone will want to give this dear rabbit another chance to find her forever home.
Bella is a sweet rabbit who overcame some tough circumstances. She was confiscated from a Louisville, KY, basement in August 2007 with 99 other rabbits and crammed into a public animal shelter for weeks while the courts decided if her poor previous care meant she would not be returned to the breeder. Fortunately, she was able to come to rescue with IHRS.
Bella is very friendly and loves to be petted, though she can be a little shy at first in a new situation. She loves to romp and dance when free to play and is very fun to watch!
Bella is being fostered at the Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you have any questions about her, please contact: mary@indianahrs.org

Dandelion
Palomino Mix
Age: 6 years 3 months
Weight: 5.5 lbs.
Dandelion is one of the few surviving rabbits from a massive backyard breeder confiscation by Metro Animal Services in Louisville KY in December 2007.
Dandy seems to be an alpha bun. He's very sure of himself around other rabbits, but a little wary of people, so he will need an adopter with lots of love and patience who is willing to let him come to them at his own pace. Once you've earned his trust, you will have a wonderfully intelligent and playful companion rabbit.
Dandelion is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about him, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Acorn
Domestic Rabbit
Age: 6 years 2 months
Weight: 6 lbs.
Acorn is one of the few surviving rabbits from a massive backyard breeder confiscation by Metro Animal Services in Louisville KY in December 2007.
Acorn's ears are badly torn from the fighting in the yard, but he is a gentle rabbit, and will let you see his ornery side when he feels safe with you. He loves to show his exuberance with fast runs around the rabbit room and wild springs in the air, and sometimes when prompted will lift his face up so you can kiss his nose.
Acorn is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about him, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Buckthorn
Domestic Rabbit
Age: 7 years 2 months
Weight: 6 lbs.
Buckthorn in one of the few surviving rabbits from a massive backyard breeder confiscation by Metro Animal Services in Louisville KY in December 2007.
Buck seems to be very intelligent, but he has a tendency to want to back away from interacting with people, perhaps just due to his natural shyness. He is a gentle bunny, and is happiest when he can wander around the rabbit room exploring.
Buckthorn in being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about him, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Vilthuril
Domestic Rabbit
Age: 6 years 2 months
Weight: 6 lbs.
Vilthuril is one of the few surviving rabbits from a massive backyard breeder confiscation by Metro Animal Services in Louisville, KY in December 2007.
Vilthuril (nicknamed Villie) is one of the most fragile of the survivors. She is very quiet and shy, we call her our Bambi bunny. She is still very timid, and needs an adopter with a gentle voice and soft touch.
Villie is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about her, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Hawkbit
Domestic Rabbit
Age: 6 years 2 months
Weight: 6 lbs.
Hawkbit is one of the few surviving rabbits from a massive backyard breeder confiscation by Metro Animal Services in Louisville, KY in December 2007.
He's a gentle and sweet bunny who tends to keep to himself. He enjoys rearranging his pen, remodeling his cardboard hiding box, and showing off his leaping skills when he's on freerun time.

Domestic Rabbit
Age: 8 years 2 months
Weight: 5.5 lbs.
Rigel is one of the few surviving rabbits from a massive backyard breeder confiscation by Metro Animal Services in Louisville, KY in December 2007.
He is an elderbun, and truly seems like a sage rabbit. He is reserved and dignified, gentle and slow moving. But he enjoys his new peaceful life, knowing that he is now safe from the dangers of the yard.
Rigel is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about him, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Cassandra
Rex Mix
Age: 7 years 3 months
Weight: 7.7 lbs.
Cassandra was rescued by IHRS when her time ran out at a municipal shelter. She is a beautiful girl. Her coat is short like a Rex's, but the texture is like a regular rabbit, a soft undercoat and a rougher outer coat.
Cassandra is so happy to be out of the shelter and have a place to stretch out and relax. She is a goofy girl, who loves to dance with joy and flop with contentment. Her latest accomplishment is learning how to go up and down stairs, and she shows off her skills every playtime.
She is very friendly and always wants attention, sticking her nose through the side of her pen for a quick headrub or scratch. She has good litterbox habits, and she loves her salad, hay, and pellets.
Cassandra would do well in a home with children, though smaller children might be a little intimidated by her size. She can be possessive of her area, but a hand giving her a headrub can distract her from any tidying up that you need to do.
Can you give this gorgeous girl the space and love that she needs?

Malani
Mini Lop
Age: 6 years 6 months
Weight: 4 lbs.
Malani is a sanctuary rabbit because of ongoing serious health issues. She came to us in 2008 from a cruelty/neglect case in Bartlett, TN. She was a breeder doe, kept in a cage so small she could barely move. 119 rabbits were confiscated, but only 63 made it out of the shelter alive. Many of the rabbits were in need of medical care, but did not receive it. The shelter immediately euthanized all head-tilt rabbits on intake, so Malani was very lucky that they overlooked her. She's fought an ongoing battle with head tilt, URI's, etc. During her times of remission she is the happiest rabbit you will ever meet, and she loves everyone... there are no strangers to Malani. Anybody who walks into the foster room is greeted by her like a long lost friend. Please keep this little lop in your thoughts, she has had a very rough road in this life.
Malani is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about her, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Rumpke
Harlequin Mix
Age: 4 years
Weight: 6.5 lbs.
Rumpke was found abandoned in a dumpster with her litter of kits. Sadly, her babies didn't live, but Rumpke survived. A wildlife rehabilitator took her in and housed her for awhile with some chickens, but it was not a good situation, so the rehabber turned her over to us. Rumpke is still wary of people (and birds) and will need an adopter who can understand how hard life has been for her and will be able to give her lots of love and time to learn to trust again.
Rumpke is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about her, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Ebony
Satin
Age: 5 years 9 months
Weight: 6 lbs.
Ebony and Onyx are special needs rabbits in sanctuary care... they have had a very difficult life. They first came into rescue with another organization in 2007 from a basement breeder confiscation, and were adopted out to someone who kept them in an outdoor cage where they were threatened by snakes. They were saved from that horrible situation, only to be adopted out a second time to a home where a dog attacked Onyx and broke her back. The family chose to surrender them to the veterinarian rather than pay for her medical care.
Ebony's mate Onyx is paralyzed in her rear legs, but tries to move as best she can. Ebony is devoted to her, always by her side. Her health is starting to decline, please hold good thoughts for these little ones.

Brownie
Mini Lop
Age: 3 years 8 months
Weight: 4.5 lbs.
Brownie is a very dear bunny in sanctuary care. He has earned the nickname of "Boomerang" because he's been surrendered into rescue 3 times now. He lost his first home because they didn't want him and were neglecting him. He was adopted out to a woman who loved him, but then she got a promotion at work and didn't have time for him anymore, so he was returned. Then he was adopted by a wonderful family that he adored... but then he got a tumor on his kidney, and his family felt they couldn't handle either the financial or emotional costs of taking care of him, so he came back again.
His tumor was successfully removed, but sadly, it was malignant and so his time is very short now. Brownie is the most cheerful and affectionate rabbit his fostermom has ever met, all this bunny ever wanted was to be loved.
Brownie is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you would like more information about him, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Dinky
Dutch
Age: 2 years 6 months
Weight: 4 lbs.
Dinky and his brother Tom were originally rescued in 2009 from a southern Indiana shelter that did not have adequate facilities to care for rabbits.
Dinky can be quite a mischief-maker. While other bunnies might prefer to kick back and relax under a willow tent, Dinky is off exploring and generally getting into things. It's a good thing he's so cute :-)
Dinky unbonded from his brother Tom and has been returned twice to the rescue, for reasons of not having enough time for him and because he wasn't the right personality match for his most recent adopter. We'd like to find him the right fit so he can settle in for his forever home.
Dinky has very good litter box habits, and is just an all-around nice bunny. Can you give Dinky a forever home?

Lilith
Dwarf
Age: 2 years 3 months
Weight: 3.25 lbs.
Lilith was rescued from a busy municipal shelter after being surrendered there after Christmas. She recently had a falling-out with her old companion, Magdalen, and is now a single bun. Lilith is friendly, active, and a bit shy. She adores head scratches and kicking her heels up to "binky" during run times. Although she likes to be petted, she's a typical bunny in that she's not a fan of being picked up or held.
Lilith is being fostered in Merrillville.

Emily
New Zealand
Age: 4 years 8 months
Weight: 9.5 lbs.
Emily came from a municipal shelter where she had been a resident for over a year. Prior to her arrival, she had been released to the wild to fend for herself and was found by a good Samaritan.
Given her past, Emily understandably had some trust issues with humans. She was one of the most terrified and aggressive rabbits that her foster mom had ever met. Her foster mom discovered that Emily is very food motivated which helped to build trust slowly over time.
Now Emily shares a different foster home, and she is eager to climb up and say hello whenever she has a visitor. She enjoys attention and petting and does not mind dogs or new people. She is a super sweet rabbit and her foster mom has declared her one of her favorite rabbits ever!
Emily will do best with an owner with prior rabbit experience, but she has come so far that the right person with patience to develop trust on Emily's terms will do fine.
Can you provide Emily a home where she is cherished?

With love and patience, Athena will be a wonderful companion rabbit.

New Zealand Mix
Age: 2 years 3 months
Weight: 4 lbs.
Mingo was found locked in a hutch with no food or water when a dog rescue group in Crawford County, IN went to a property to investigate an abandoned dog left chained to a tractor. She was dehydrated and underweight, and her nails were torn from trying to dig out of the wire hutch.
Now that Mingo is safely in rescue, she's alert and interested in what is going on around her, which is wonderful to see. She's gained some weight and has been spayed. She has a gentle and inquisitive personality, and would do well in a quiet home.

Kisa
English spot
Age: 2 years 7 months
Weight: 6.5 lbs.

Kisa is a bit of a wild woman with a personality as big as those ears! She thrives on long daily run times and practically demands head scratches. She can be a bit cage-possessive at times so families with young children should take notice, but all in all Kisa is very sweet and loves to be around people.
Kisa is being fostered in Merrillville.

Jewel
Rex
Age: 2 years 11 months
Weight: 7.9 lbs.
Jewel was rescued from a busy metropolitan shelter when her time ran out.
Jewel is really a wonderful bunny. She is very sweet, friendly and well mannered. She has adapted rather well to her new surroundings. In fact she is every rabbit owner's dream. A rabbit that doesn't make a mess. She has a box filled with various toys (which she likes to play with), pines cones and a toliet paper roll. At the end of the day, she puts every single item that in her pen into her box. It's our little game we play. Her foster mom spreads her toys out in the morning before work and when I serve her her salad at night, she has her pen organized. She loves to be held and cuddled. She likes to socialize with other rabbits, so she would do well in a pairing.
She also would be a great rabbit for a first time bunny owner. Can you provide Jewel the home of her dreams?

Grayson
Chinchilla X
Age: 2 years 11 months
Weight: 6 lbs.
Grayson was rescued from an Indiana shelter when his time ran out.
Grayson is very friendly and begs for attention. He loves being petted and gives
kisses to his foster mom. Grayson would be suitable for a first time bunny owner.
Grayson was recently neutered and his litterbox habits are emerging. He currently requires two litter boxes, he is now 100%!
Can someone give this loveable bunny a forever home?

Patrick
Californian
Age: 4 years 11 months
Weight: 7.5 lbs.
Patrick is one lucky bunny! On St. Patrick's day, a good samaritan found him left behind when his owners moved out of the house. Patrick is thin and has some health challenges due to a period of neglect (sore hocks, dirty ears).
Despite the neglect, Patrick is one very grateful, happy rabbit. He is friendly, actively soliciting pets from his foster mom, and loves to be held. He literally craves human interaction and attention.
Please check back for updates as Patrick recovers from his ordeal.

Joey is one lucky bunny, confiscated by police and transferred to a busy metropolitan shelter. When Indiana HRS pulled him, he was urine stained and very dirty.
Joey is "living large" in IHRS foster care :) He is an incredibly friendly rabbit, actively seeking pets from his foster Mom.
Please check back for updates after he is neutered and settles into foster care.

Franklin
Dutch
Age: 1 years 3 months
Weight: 4 lbs.
Franklin came to Indiana HRS from a local animal care and control facility, where he had been brought in with another larger rabbit. Franklin had several bite wounds all over his body, but luckily only one of them was serious enough to require treatment.
Franklin is a funny bunny who loves his play time! He's still a teenage bunny, and as such has little time for his foster mom... there's just too much to chin and sniff. He is a little shy of hands when he's inside his condo, but is more willing to be petted when outside - on his terms, naturally. Since his neuter his litter box habits have improved drastically, though he does mark quite a bit when he's out for playtime. This is more a symptom of the fact that he lives with other bunnies, however, and is not indicative of his behavior in another environment.
Franklin is all ready to go to his forever home, and he looks forward to meeting his forever family soon.

Beans
Mini Rex
Age: 2 years 9 months
Weight: 5.5 lbs.
Beans is a beautiful Mini-Rex, with an incredibly soft coat. She came to us when her time ran out at a Kentucky shelter. Sadly, the shelter adopted out her bonded mate as a single, so she was left behind. She's a very quiet and sweet bunny, and she loves to be petted. SInce she did have a mate prior to coming into rescue, we feel that she might be a good candidate for a pairing situation.
Beans is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you have any questions about her, please contact: mary@indianahrs.org

Bertha
Flemish Giant Mix
Age: 3 years 9 months
Weight: 8.5 lbs.
Bertha came to us when her time ran out at the shelter, which was fortuitous for her since she had been sitting there for months with an untreated, injured ear. She's received the needed veterinary care now, and her internal ear infection has healed, but the outer ear tearing could not be repaired since it had already healed in its damaged state. We don't know if it's from the injury or just the way her ears developed, but her left one lops while her right one remains upright, giving her a somewhat quizzical look.
Bertha is making great strides in learning to trust people, but she still has some fear issues. She's also working on her litterbox habits, which were non-existent when she first arrived. This bodacious bunny will need an adopter with lots of love and patience, to help her find her way to becoming a loved house rabbit.
Bertha is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you have any questions about her, please contact: mary@indianahrs.org

Panda
English Spot Mix
Age: 2 years 9 months
Weight: 5.25 lbs.
Panda came into rescue when her time ran out at a Louisville shelter. She is a very friendly and interactive rabbit, with excellent litterbox habits... why she was passed over for adoption at the shelter is a mystery.
Panda loves to get into things and does have a taste for telephone cords, so vigilant bunny-proofing is a must. She is also an excellent jumper, and loves getting on top of boxes, beds, etc. You will never be bored when Panda is around.
Panda is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you have any questions about her, please contact: mary@indianahrs.org

Lucy
mix
Age: 2 years 1 months
Weight: 9 lbs.
Lucy came to HRS after being a "snow bunny." She's happy to be indoors and pampered now!
Lucy has LOTS of personality and is one of the smartest rabbits her foster mom has met. Bunny smarts mean entertainment, but they can also get bunny in trouble as bunny creates her own mischief!
Lucy loves attention and runs to be petted. She flops with complete happiness and explores without fear. She gets along fine with kind dogs, too.
Lucy would love to find a home where she can run free (bunny-proofed space, of course!) and be queen of the house. She has great litterbox habits. She needs an experienced rabbit owner (or at least an adventurous person!) to understand her needs--Lucy loves to be loved, but will test you with her teeth if she is startled or wants to get her way. She is smart enough to learn when that tactic doesn't get her anywhere, but shouldn't be around small kids as a result.
Are you ready for a really fun companion? Just wait until you see Lucy roll her treat ball around like she's playing soccer!

Perry Ellis
Californian Mix
Age: 1 years 8 months
Weight: 5.2 lbs.
Perry Ellis is one of a group of 8 rabbits that came from a cruelty/neglect situation. He was severely urine stained and quite wobbly, barely able to hop. Perry has been vetted and is able to hop normally and can actually periscope!
Perry is a delightful little guy who loves to be petted. He has learned to play with toys and loves to throw things around. Perry is E. cuniculi positive and has some residual mobility issues related to his illness, all of which are manageable with medication.
Perry will require an owner with prior rabbit experience. Can you provide Perry with a home where he will be cherished?

Francesca
Mini Lop
Age: 3 years 8 months
Weight: 4.5 lbs.
A Good Samaritan saw Francesca wandering at Mount Saint Francis in Floyds Knobs, IN and contacted us. She'd been abandoned by her former owner, and had been seen there for several months but no one could catch her. Once she was caught, she seemed almost relieved, and has settled quickly into the routines and comforts of being a house rabbit. She's a very inquisitive and intelligent bunny, and will make a wonderful companion for the person who wants to open their heart and home to her.
Francesca is being fostered at our Southern Indiana/Kentucky satellite chapter in Louisville, KY. If you have any questions about her, please contact mary@indianahrs.org

Tattoo
Florida White
Age: 1 years 8 months
Weight: 6.3 lbs.
Tattoo is one of a group of 8 rabbits that came from a cruelty/neglect situation. He was severely urine stained and quite fearful of humans when he was transferred to IHRS. Tattoo is doing wonderfully due to our wonderful volunteers!
Tattoo is a super sweet rabbit whose main goal in life is to be petted. He will loaf up and "present" to be petted every time his foster mom or an IHRS volunteer approaches him. He is a delightful rabbit that is very grateful to be housed indoors.
Tattoo's latest foster home has allowed him to really get a taste of his own place, with lots of free running time and the chance to hang out with dogs, cats, and kids!
Can you provide Tattoo with the forever home of his dreams?

Californian
Age: 1 years 8 months
Weight: 6.3 lbs.
Groucho is one of a group of 8 rabbits that came from a cruelty/neglect situation. He was severely urine stained and quite fearful of humans when he was transferred to IHRS.

Now that his nutritional status has improved, his eyebrows have disappeared but the name stuck :)
Groucho is a delightful rabbit that is very grateful to be housed indoors. He has proven to be quite resilient with multiple relocations. Groucho enjoys being petted and loves his daily run time.
Can you provide Groucho with the forever home of his dreams?

Razzle
Mixed
Age: 3 years 7 months
Weight: 7 lbs.
Razzle and Dazzle are a bonded pair of healthy 7 lb. girls. They have a lot of energy and a happy attitude about life. I call them the 'rough & tumble girls' because they're active and love to interact on the floor with their caregivers. Once they get to know you, they will climb all over you and love to explore. Like most bunnies, they love to be petted, but don't like to be picked up. Their former life was grim, being housed together in a tiny, dirty cage where food & water were sporadic at best. They have excellent litterbox habits. Do you have room in your heart & home for these girls?
Note: Razzle and Dazzle are being fostered in Covington, KY.
