Hades - American Rabbit

Shelter: BC SPCA - Victoria Branch Animal ID: 529333 Birthdate: January 30, 2021 - Juvenile Spayed/Neutered: No Male Meet Hades! Hades is a rambunctious young bunny who recently came into care with his 3 siblings. This boy is very active and is searching for a home where he will be provided with plenty of space to exercise and lots of quality time socializing with his people. Hades can be shy at first meeting but his inquisitive nature allows him to quickly warm up to new friends. Hades is learning to enjoy pets on his head but finds getting picked up a bit too scary. Like most rabbits, Hades and his siblings enjoy chewing and digging. They would do best in a home where they are provided with varied toys and enrichment as proper outlets for these behaviours. Hades has previous experience living with dogs and could do well in a home with a rabbit-friendly dog. Hades is currently eating a diet of Oxbow Young Rabbit Food, unlimited timothy hay, alfalfa hay, and fresh greens. He should continue on this diet until he is 8 months old when he can transition to an adult rabbit diet. Hades and his siblings are still learning how to use the litterbox and will likely improve once they have been spayed and neutered. Rabbits need a large living space and are not suited to life in a cage or hutch. These young bunnies would do best housed in a pen style enclosure, which can be set up using a dog exercise pen, or given free run of a room of their own.
