ALICE

SMALL AND FURRY: LIONHEAD/ENGLISH SPOT MIX RABBIT • 1-YEAR-OLD • SPAYED FEMALE • ADOPTION CENTER: WESTPORT Alice is on the shy side so would do best in a rabbit experienced home. She is an indoor only rabbit. In her foster home, she integrated with two cats and a rabbit-friendly small dog. She was never in an enclosure and had 950 square feet to roam in. She always used her litter box (hay substrate, cleaned 3 times a week). She eats vegetables out of people’s hands and sits within a few feet of people when they are relaxing but hops away when petted. She has displayed no territorial or aggressive behavior with people or other animals, and may be able to bond with another spayed or neutered rabbit with a bonding-experienced family.
