Barnaby and Betty's Story

These two are fun pair with lots of personality! They are very curious and love knowing what you are up to. Betty is the shy one and Barnaby is the funny rascal with big personality. Give them a chance to adjust to you with lots of time sitting with them - consistency and habit forming will get the best love from them. Barnaby can be a little bossy with nipping in the beginning, but once he learns to trust you he&#39;s a sweet fun-loving fella. They do chase each other a little bit when it&#39;s feeding time, but this has improved during their time in foster care. Even though Betty is shy, she will put Barnaby in his place when she needs him to calm down. When it comes to food Betty is highly motivated and will come out of her shell.<br/><br/>B&amp;B love toys, hideys and boxes they can climb around, and of course daily veggie time. Barnaby especially loves to peek out the top of a vertical tunnel. They&#39;ll tolerate grooming at home if they feel secure and keep sessions short.<br/><br/>Some things to keep in mind: we do recommend a large area with an extra tall pen with this pair, or ultimately allowing them to free roam once they settle in. They may be aggressive to other pets in the household, and because of their energy would not be suitable around small children.

Bunny Buddies's Adoption Policy
• We only adopt home in which the bunny will live indoors as part of the family. • Our adoption fee is $100 for a single rabbit or $150 for a bonded pair (rabbits form strong permanent bonds, and we do not separate bonded pairs). All adoptable rabbits are already spayed/neutered and microchipped. • Carefully consider the on-going cost of caring for a house rabbit, and determine whether you are prepared to make that financial commitment for the life of your pet. A recent study by the ASPCA found rabbits to be the third-most-expensive companion animal—after horses and large dogs. • You will need to prepare your home for a bunny in advance. Please be aware that most pet store "rabbit cages" are inadequate—they are too small, and the wire floors are bad for rabbits' feet. In the Rabbit Care Guide (https://bunnybuddies.org/rabbit-care-guide/) you will find some ideas for building your own. Some people let their rabbits freely roam a room or area of the house. If you hope to do this, be sure to read the section about "Bunny-Proofing" your home; electrical cords are especially dangerous. We do require adopters to provide us with a photo of the living space you have prepared for your new furry friend. • Since our fosters are divided among volunteer foster homes throughout the Houston area, attending one of our adoption events is the best way to get to meet and interact with a number of bunnies at once.
