First off, I am located in Massachusetts. I have a 4 year old female bunny named Potter (play on harry/hare-y potter) that I need to find a home for asap. I wish I posted here earlier but I only posted on craigslist. Earlier this week, my dad told me I have until this weekend to move out. I have arranged to go to my mom's house but there's hardly any space there for me and my mom's allergic so bringing her there isnt much of an option. I'm leaving sunday (september 29). I would like to have her in a loving, permanent home before then but seeing as I have no time, I know it's unlikely. I really don't want to leave her with a shelter as I would like to be able to answer any questions on her as they come up with anyone that would be taking her in and I would also like to see where she's going and meet who it is. I know her best as I've had her since she was a baby. I picked her from the litter.
A couple people have reached out to me and said they could take her in for a bit while I find her a home if I need that and someone reached out and offered to take her to house rabbit network. My mom said she would try to make some space for her but it does seem very unlikely that it will be suitable for her.
About her:
She is not spayed and not current on vet. She might possibly get along with another bun if properly introduced in THEIR territory. She does get territorial of her space at times. She is perfectly fine with people entering her space but she doesn't like other animals in her cage. I don't think she would do well with young kids as she sometimes digs/scratches at your lap or nips/bites if you ignore her. She starts with a nudge but if that is ignored, she will either nip or scratch and then she will bite if you haven't acknowledged her. She also doesn't like to be chased around. She does well with cats (lived with 4 in the past). I don't know about dogs. She is NOT good with birds. She does not like to be picked up but she will usually tolerate it for a short while. She is good about getting her nails cut. She loves her crate and will typically "go home" when told, although sometimes she can be stubborn. She also knows "Potter, where are you?" Which is what I used to say when she was a baby, roaming the house. I would ask while looking for her and she would come running out to where I could see her. I haven't tried it in a while but I'm sure she could do it again.
She is a bunny that prefers to roam around doing her own thing and go to you when she wants attention. I don't think there's a veggie or fruit she's tried and disliked (none I can think of). Her favorite is green leaf lettuce. I usually feed her spring mix, bell peppers, and whatever else we have in the fridge daily as well as some fruit like grapes, berries, or bananas weekly. She hasn't been on any pellets for a while but will eat them throughout the day until she's had enough. (I gave her 1/4 cup when she had them. The reason she hasnt had them is because I wanted to try switching what she was on and find something better and other than that I just havent gone to get them) She gets fresh timothy hay every day. I offered her a tiny piece of chicken in the past and she got VERY upset at me. She hates chicken!
She can have a temper at times and will stomp to let you know when she's upset. Sometimes it's something as simple as a light on or a sound that's bothering her, sometimes it's because her toys aren't stacked for her to knock over.
She comes with a pet store cage, a large dog crate, her blankets, toys, hay, bowls, and litter box. She likes to be around people so she does best being indoors. I believe she is a cinnamon. She has one blue eye and one half brown, half blue. If you are looking for a bunny in the area or you know someone that is, please let me know. or if you have any advice or tips that might be helpful. Feel free to ask any questions
