This week we would like to feature Dr. Cornelius!
Dr. Cornelius is a 4 month old, 3 pound, lionhead. He and his litter mates were rescued from a shelter in Quebec where they were at risk for euthanasia. Cornelius is overwhelmed by all the change in his little life. He’s nervous and really wants a lady bunny friend to cuddle up to. We suspect he will bond quickly to a bunny pal but will take a little longer to warm up to new people. Cornelius is healthy and ready to find his forever home!
Baby bunnies are a lot of work and need to be trained, just like puppies! Bunnies need to be taught what to chew and what not to chew (baseboards, couches, shoes, etc) and they need to be taught to use a litter-box. Baby bunnies have a lot of energy and can be messy, destructive and a bit bonkers for the first year of life. Training takes time, patience and commitment. They are incredibly funny, adventurous and will never insult your cooking (cuz they are hungry hungry hippos!). After they celebrate their first birthday, most buns will chill out. So if you’re prepared for the hilarity and responsibility of raising a baby bunny, apply to adopt!
Dr. Cornelius needs a minimum of an extra-large dog xpen with 3 foot tall walls. He can free-range in a bunny-proof home once he’s matured and learned the house rules.
Adoption fee is $40 and includes neuter, RHDV vaccination and vet exam.
