I'm so happy that people are thinking of adopting him!! If I had the room, I would've done it without question, but with 5 rabbits here possible turning into 7 soon...

I'm so glad this thread is becoming sucessful is helping this poor baby out!!!

I wish I could go with you Spring =P
 
Haven't had the chance to go yet, but I'm phoning tomorrow to make sure he's still available, then definitely going with Pebbles Saturday either in the morning or afternoon. I might also check out other bunnies there if Yoyo and Pebbles don't hit it off, so not sure.


 
He's still there, so I'll be going with Pebbles tomorrow :). The lady said he gets along really well with other bunnies, he just likes to mount a lot.. so we'll see how it goes!

I'm home! A bit of a surprise, but here's what happened..

I got a bit freaked in the morning, and decided to leave Pebbles at home. I went, and saw Yoyo. He was SUCH a sweetheart with the softest fur and the kindest eyes. He was a bit scared, but curious. He was such a doll to hold, he was a lovely little guy :). He's probably 4-5lbs, not too large, and has the softest fur! He looked like he was in great shape and great health!

The problem being, the lady didn't feel Yoyo would be best in my situation, and by the end, I agreed with her. Since I was looking for a possible friend for Pebbles, but not my main concern, she said I would have to bring Pebbles in to meet him before I adopted him. That was no problem. I decided to see how he acted with other bunnies, and all he wanted to do was chase and mount. Another lady there said that when he sees other bunnies, he gets quite frisky and excitable (to the point he's banging into the walls of his cage). And when he does come out with the other bunny, he just wants to mount. He still has his hormones because he had a vasectomy because one testicle didn't descend. I just didn't feel it was fair for him or Pebbles, who really does like the company of other rabbits. I worried about him getting sexually frustrated because of the smell even if he didn't see the other bunnies. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to adopt Yoyo :(. I didn't feel I was right for him, or that it was fair for him or Pebbles. I would have adopted him in a heart beat if I didn't have any other bunnies, he's a gorgeous boy and such a little baby!

I did come home with a very sweet trio-coloured girl, Jasmine. The lady said she gets along super well with other bunnies, and even when she was with the other bunnies at the shelter, there was no aggression and she just wanted to cuddle :). They don't know much about her, since she was abandoned in a park by a boy, and brought to the SPCA. She's spayed and is such a sweetheart! She's still coming out of her shell, and I Think a forever home will really help her personality blossom :).

I'll write more about he with pictures in another thread! My camera batteries are dead, but will get those charged ASAP :).


 
Hi Spring! I'm really glad you found what sounds to be the perfect bunny for your family. I read your post on the main forum and she is CUTE! She sounds so sweet and wonderful, too. She looks super soft!
About Yoyo, do you think he could still be neutered? Don't they usually go through the abdomen or something to get undescended testicles? It doesn't really sound like he'd be a good match for my boy Rory if he still has hormones. Rory is a mellow and submissive (I think) bun, but still, he's a boy and I wonder if that would fire Yoyo up even more.
 
I asked about that, and she said she wasn't completely sure, but it might have been the cost of it. She said she was going to talk with the vet again and see what they could possibly do, and if it's operable.

Yoyo seems very happy at the SPCA, although I still feel bad. He's in a dog kennel type pen, with lots of things to play with and jump on. He gets a lot of attention from the ladies who work there, who absolutely love him!


 
Hey there - sorry to hear he is still so frisky... I know my vet told me if the testicles weren't fully descended once they got in there, they usually go into the abdomen to get it all...

I'm thinking he can probably still get neutered, but that's a whole other topic.

As long as Yoyo is not at Petcetera, I'm soooo happy!! <3


I'm glad you finally found a friend to Pebbles, Spring. Jasmine sounds like an awesome bun <3

And THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH Spring for helping out with Yoyo, it really means a lot of me =] I'm glad he's doing well at his SPCA, and not at some random guy's house from Petcetera =[

You too SnowyShiloh!! =] Your efforts with falling in love and thinking about possibly getting him to you, really made me glad that I started this thread =]

Thank you everyone!! <333333333333333333333333

And well, since Yoyo is no longer in Petcetera... I guess we can close this thread?

Are there any updates on Mr. Yoyo? I'm still thinking about him all the time. I hope he could be neutered. I came to the conclusion that if he were my bunny, I would have to name him Sean after the sheep in Wallace and Gromit who gets his wool shaved off. This bunny looks just like a little sheepy with short fur!
 
Well, I believe Yoyo is still at the shelter... I check Petfinder every couple days. Such a sweet boy. I can't wait until he gets an awesome home!
 
Yeah, he's still there. Still have to email to get the latest about him.

He's in a great situation in a huge dog kennel and is being very well taken care of at the SPCA. I hope he gets a wonderful home too!
 
The SPCA Yoyo is located at is closing down as of July 1st (Spring is that right?). I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to place the rabbits in neighbouring shelters, but the cats would be a more diffucult problem.

He's still at the shelter, waiting for that wonderful home!
