Why this pet is the one for you:
Mushroom is a sweet little rabbit who is looking for his human soulmate! Bell Pepper, like all rabbits, will need a large x-pen/playpen like enclosure with at least 12 square feet of room to stretch out. Rabbits are very easy to litter-box train, and Bell Pepper is a smart little bunny! Along with his litter box, Mushroom will enjoy having hiding places, toys, things to chew on, and a bunny friend! Incredibly social, rabbits thrive with other rabbits. Everyone needs a best friend who "speaks their language" right? If you don't already have a bunny at home, ask your adoption counselor how to get Bell Pepper a friend, appropriate timelines, and bonding process. If you are open to taking home two buns, Bell Pepper has grown quite close with his brother, Mushroom 732175! Bell Pepper will also need plenty of daily time to explore outside of his pen and hang with his human! Rabbits are intelligent and complex animals who do well in families with humans who understand that they are prey animals, and do not always enjoy being held/picked up. The best way to bond with Bell Pepper is to spend time with him outside of his pen, and shower him with plenty of cilantro, romaine lettuce, and Timothy hay! When Rabbits get the space and enrichment they need, they often form deep bonds with their humans in the same way a dog or cat would.

Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV2) is a highly contagious disease affecting rabbits. Due to its presence in San Diego County, all rabbits will receive a mandatory RHDV2 vaccine before adoption. Guests will be charged $12 for this vaccine upon adoption.
