Arby (Vancouver) Rabbit New Zealand & Bunny Rabbit Mix Vancouver, BC

Arby is a friendly bunny, likely about 2-3 years old, who was found abandoned by a kind-hearted schoolboy who took him home

He is a large rabbit with an equally large personality! He loves attention and pets from his human, and loves to zoom around on the carpet and toss his favourite toys around. He is excellent with his litter box but does like to chew things, especially cardboard and his towel.

Despite his friendliness, Arby is not an ideal “first rabbit” candidate due to his enthusiasm for attention — he is so happy to see you that he will lunge and grunt at your feet or pull at your pant legs, which can be intimating until you get to know him. He is also territorial when he gets his pellets — he'll grunt at you if you get too close! Over-enthusiasm aside, he loves to hang out with someone and will come right up beside you and flop over on his side for pets. His foster mother has noticed that he really enjoys being talked to and will often perform little hops and binkies in response.

Arby would thrive in a home where he gets to spend lots of time with his person/family. As he is a large rabbit, he does not like hardwood floors — he requires carpeting or some other surface with traction. His current house has 2 cats and he has not been bothered by their presence. He will make someone a wonderful companion! If you’d like to meet Arby, apply to adopt today!
