Satchel and his brother, Hanny, were left on someone's porch while she was away on vacation!  That person came home to a pair of cold, very thin rabbits and didn't know what to do.  They took the bunnies to a dog and cat shelter who in turn contacted us.

Han may just be the most awesome bunny we've currently got in the rescue.  He loves to play and gets the zoomies, play-boxes at you, LOVES toys and is very active and curious.  He follows his foster mom around and loves attention.  He seems to have already picked up on litterbox usage, to the point that even if he is exploring other rooms of the house he will run back to the bunny room to use the litter!  He loves his salads, enjoys hopping around with other bunnies and he is totally fearless.  He has adapted perfectly to life as a SPOILED bunny after being neglected for so long and he'll make a great little house pet for just about anyone.  Hanny has his own cage but spends his free time every evening with Sunny, another rabbit available for adoption.  Hanny grooms and lays with Sundance, and spends as much time in her cage with her as he does exploring the room.  They are available for adoption separately but would make a great pair!

Hanny is neutered and microchipped and has been given a clean bill of health by the vet!

Rabbit FACTS:

Rabbits can live 10 years or more with proper care.  Where will you be in 10 years?  If you don't see a rabbit in your future, don't bring him home now (or consider adopting a senior bunny.) They are considered by our rescue to be house pets, not outside pets, and they will not be adopted to live in hutches, garages, barns, or cellars (unfinished basements).  They need to be with their people daily!

Rabbits should see a bunny-savvy vet annually for checkups just like a dog or cat.

Rabbits need lots of time out of their cages to see the world, explore, run and play.

Diet consists of mostly greens and vegetables with high-quality pellets being more supplemental than a staple.  Quality timothy or orchard grass hay and fresh water should be available AT ALL TIMES!  This is very important! 

Grooming a bunny is very simple.  Routine brushing and nail clipping, checking teeth and ears, and providing a tidy habitat in which to live will all help your bunny stay healthy and clean!
