Happy's Story

About Happy<br/>Happy is a young Flemish Giant mix, approximately 8 months old, and she truly lives up to her name. She’s cheerful, curious, affectionate, and full of personality. She loves being around people and absolutely adores being petted!<br/>She is currently in a foster home and is free roaming in a bedroom. She tends to stick to spaces with carpet or rugs, as she’s not a fan of smooth flooring. She enjoys having her own cozy rug to relax and play on and will often zoom around doing binkies when she’s feeling happy and energetic. In the mornings, she’ll even hop up onto the bed (using her step) to spend time cuddling and being petted.<br/>Happy does have a shy side when it comes to loud noises or new environments. She loves having cozy hiding spaces and especially enjoys being under furniture. However, she is also very social and will always come out to greet you, especially if she hears a food bag! She is very food-motivated and enjoys interactive toys like her pellet ball, which she tosses around to get treats out.<br/>She is more reserved with new people at first but warms up quickly and becomes very affectionate once she feels safe. While she can be picked up, it’s not her favourite activity yet—she’ll tolerate it briefly but may express her opinion with a little foot stomp afterward! With continued gentle, positive handling, she will keep building confidence.<br/>Happy has excellent habits in the home. She is fully litter trained and consistently uses her litter box, even in new environments. She has good manners overall, though like most rabbits, she enjoys chewing, primarily sticking to appropriate items like cardboard, her hidey hut, and wooden objects. She may nibble exposed wood or tug at rugs, and will chew wires if given access, so bunny-proofing is important..<br/>She has been spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated, and she keeps her space clean and tidy.<br/><br/>Training & Support<br/>Rabbits benefit greatly from gentle socialization and enriching activities, and Happy is at a perfect age to continue learning. Providing her with tunnels, chews, toys, puzzle feeders, hideouts, and space to explore will help keep her happy and mentally stimulated. With patient, positive handling, she’ll continue to grow into a confident and well-adjusted rabbit.<br/><br/>Ideal Home<br/>Happy would do best in a home that can provide:<br/> - A quiet, predictable environment<br/> - Indoor housing with safe space to hop, explore, and relax<br/> - Soft flooring or rugs for comfortable movement<br/> - Plenty of enrichment and appropriate chew toys<br/> - A family willing to offer gentle interaction and time to build trust<br/>She may also do well with a calm rabbit companion, following proper bonding procedures.<br/><br/>Adoption Fee $50 <br/><br/>If you're interested in adopting Happy, please enquire via this website, or email us directly at:<br/><br/>animal.shelter@vancouver.ca
