So. Cali. DUers: Two rabbits w/ new hutches free to good home (PHOTOS)
I only have photos of one of them. This is Graham:







The other's named Jake.

They belong to my youngest nephew, who does very well caring for them but he thinks they'd be happier somewhere else. He doesn't feel he plays with them enough or spends enough time with them.

PM me if you're interested. Thanks!

3. NEVER give away a pet for free!
Especially rabbits and dogs. Some nice person will come to your door, tell you a happy story about their kids, and take your rabbits with him leaving you with a fuzzy feeling that you've done something good. Unfortunatly, the odds are just as good that the animal will end up in a lab or on someones dinner plate, than in a happy home.

Go to a pet store, find out what rabbits are going for, and discount them a few bucks. If you're feeling generous you can even toss the hutches in for free. That way you'll ensure that the rabbits go to someone who actually wants one, rather than someone looking for a free ride or someone who decides to take them on a whim and loses interest in them a month or two later. Remember, if someone can't afford to BUY the animal, they probably can't afford to feed it or take it to the vet either.

4. What a lovely bunny!
Don't give the little fellas to anyone you're not 100% sure about!

I'm always amazed at how good of a pet a rabbit can actually be. A friend of mine in California used to have one that was litterbox trained, very people-friendly, and could actually be left with only moderate supervision in even the front yard. It never left the yard, just hopped around and nibbled on the grass, then went up and scratched at the door when it wanted back in. It loved just sitting in your lap and being scratched behind the ears.

Bunnies rock :P
