Health
Spayed / neutered, special needs. Chocolatte had a back leg injury when he came to our rescue and it was determined that the best course of treatment would be to amputate his leg. He now lives as a tripod, but this does not seem to slow him down! He is an active and energetic fellow now regardless. Charlotte has to be taken in to the vet periodically for molar trims to ensure that she does not have issues with her teeth. Trims have been minimal in the past couple of years: only needed about every 6 months. Her foster mommy keeps a close eye on her weight and eating habits to make sure she catches any signs of a problem.

Meet Chocolatte and Charlotte

Chocolatte and Charlotte have been (through no fault of their own) long-time residents at Bunny World Foundation. They both came to us as single bunnies and met one another while recuperating from significant health issues after leaving the hospital. They have been a loving bonded pair for almost three years now and have been in several foster homes. Their latest foster placement has been the longest at more than two years, but they are in great need of a forever home to call their own!

Chocolatte had a back leg injury when he came to our rescue and it was determined that the best course of treatment would be to amputate his leg. He now lives as a tripod, but this does not seem to slow him down! He is an active and energetic fellow who is very protective of his lady love. His grunts and thumps are gallant, but harmless since he is not an aggressive fellow. He is just protective and wants to make sure he lets you know that he is watching you when you are handling Charlotte. He also tends to lay upon her in a perpendicular manner when they are both sleeping on their Ikea doll bed as if to guard her against any potential dangers that may befall them as they slumber.

Speaking of Charlotte, she is one of our miracle bunnies at BWF. She and her six babies were rescued from East Valley Animal Shelter from the BLUE ALERT list, basically meaning they were just about to be euthanized before BWF stepped in. Although she was nursing her beautiful babies, she had severe abscesses on both jaws due to overgrown molars, requiring surgery. Her inability to eat due to the pain in her mouth also caused her to go into gastrointestinal stasis. She and her babies were hospitalized for a while and she still has to be taken in periodically for molar trims to ensure that she does not have issues with her teeth again. However, trims have been minimal in the past couple of years: only needed about every 6 months. Her foster mommy keeps a close eye on her weight and eating habits to make sure she catches any signs of a problem. Charlotte is a kind and sensitive bunny who has a tendency to “talk” by making little sounds of pleasure, annoyance, or fear, based on the circumstance. It is not hard to tell how she is feeling, as she is very expressive. Yet she is also a fighter. She would not have survived if that was not the case.

Chocolatte’s and Charlotte’s foster mommy has this to say about this special couple: “I see Chocolatte as a wounded warrior fighting to protect his lady fair. And every day he is surprised that Charlotte is only indulging him because she is a fighter and completely capable of taking care of herself. Yet to watch them play out this scenario over and over is charming and endearing. No bunny couple deserves a happily ever after more than these two precious characters.”
