Hopper and Artina are Rabbits Ready for a Home

Both are happy, playful, and adorable!

Hopper is a 2 year-old, male, Mini Lop rabbit. His fur is mostly white with adorable patches of grey. Hopper is very friendly and easy-going. He enjoys being petted and has wonderfully soft fur. He is a happy guy with a playful personality. He has been neutered. (A632406)

Artina is a young female, short hair mix rabbit. Her fur is all black. Artina has a lot of energy and likes to play. Play might include running, playing with plastic toys, cardboard boxes, and paper bags. Artina will need to be spayed. (A697422)

Hopper and Artina are indoor rabbits. They will need a pen inside your home in a place where they can interact with you. Rabbits establish strong bonds with people, and even other animals, so it is important for them to interact with their family. Rabbits are intelligent animals and need time to play. They are most active in the morning and evening, which is a perfect time to interact with them.

Rabbits make great pets for adults and children 8 years of age or older. They are not recommended as pets for younger children. Both Hopper and Artina are litter boxed trained. They are both adorable, friendly, loving, and completely lovable!
