Rutabaga
* Rutabaga and Radish found their forever home together with a lovely person! Congrats bunnies! *
Someone abandoned seven baby rabbits on the doorstep of a vet clinic in Oakville. Oakville Humane Society was called and the bunnies were transferred to the shelter. OHS was already packed to the brim with rabbits, including a mom and her babies who had been abandoned in the exact same way earlier in the month. They reached out to us for help, and we were able to take four babies into our care. Please help us in welcoming River, Rain, Rutabaga, and Radish! They’re adorable bunnies, and very sweet.
The bunnies were given a clean bill of health at their vet visit, and we had them spayed and neutered. They’re healed from their surgeries, and they’re now available for adoption! We’re asking Rutabaga and Radish be adopted as a pair.
Rutabaga and Radish are friendly and will happily come running to greet anyone they meet. They’re free roaming in a spare room at their foster home. They do not like to be picked up, but they don’t mind head pets while all four of their feet are on the floor. The bunnies enjoy their daily veggie snacks, and they love to play and chase each other around the room in fun. They’re litter trained and they are great candidates for free range living in a rabbit proofed home.
Rabbits need lots of space…
Our fostered rabbits are housed in x-pens or similar enclosures so they have lots of room to move around when they aren’t out for floor time. Some of our rabbits live in a spare room of the home, or are free range in their foster home.
Commercially made pet store rabbit cages are far too small to allow rabbits to stretch out and move around with ease.
Here are some great websites and photos outlining alternative rabbit housing using x pens and similar enclosures.
