Ivy (bonded to Bean)

IVY AND BEAN ARE A BONDED PAIR AND MUST BE ADOPTED TOGETHER.<br/><br/>Ivy is laid back and affectionate, willing to follow Bean’s lead. Bean is a typical older sister - jealous and protective at the same time which can be mistaken as aggression. These girls will benefit from a patient and experienced bunny parent to read the cues and play the field correctly. We'll give you all the tips and tricks we've learned to keep the peace. Bean and Ivy were returned for Bean's surly attitude, but don't be put off! Once you get the hang of it, you'll have them both literally eating out of your hands.<br/><br/>Ivy (stripe on back) and Bean (bigger patch on back) are sisters who were born in September 2021. They love to play together, and do lots of zoomies and binkies. They love to play with wicker balls and seagrass mats. <br/><br/>The girls are well-behaved free roamers, and have been trusted alone at home so they are good candidates to work up to free roaming at their forever home! They are good hay eaters, and love romaine and spring mix. Strawberries are a favorite treat. <br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Ivy and Bean, please fill out the application at https://friendsofrabbits.org/rabbit-adoption and someone will call or email you to schedule an interview. Their adoption fee is $160 (for both) plus a mandatory $50 RHD vaccine fee per rabbit. <br/><br/>INDOOR HOMES ONLY!<br/><br/>ABOUT FRIENDS OF RABBITS<br/>Friends of Rabbits is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal rescue operating in the greater DC-metro area. We take rabbits at risk of euthanasia from shelters in Maryland, DC and Virginia. We also rescue abandoned and neglected rabbits and assist with large confiscation cases. We provide foster homes and veterinary care for our rabbits, have them spayed/neutered and find them new forever homes through our adoption programs.<br/>Please note: We are not licensed to handle wildlife.<br/><br/>Come Meet Our Pets...<br/>We have adoption events multiple times a month. Events take place twice monthly at headquarters located in Columbia, MD and once a month in Fairfax, VA. We also have regularly scheduled events in local pet stores throughout the metropolitan region.<br/><br/>Our Adoption Process...<br/>Prior to adoption, we ask that people fill out an application: https://friendsofrabbits.org/rabbit-adoption<br/><br/>1. The adopter must be a responsible adult, who is at least 18 years old. If a family adopts the rabbit, the primary caregiver must be an adult or a responsible older teen. Younger children may do the work necessary to care for the rabbit under the daily supervision of an adult. All adults in the family must agree on adopting the rabbit.<br/><br/>2. We do not adopt our rabbits out as classroom pets.<br/><br/>3. Rabbits are social animals. The adopted rabbit(s) must live indoors in an appropriate size space where they will receive daily interaction with the family. The best possible space would be freedom in a rabbit proofed room. If that is not possible, a dog exercise pen (at least 12 square feet of room) with rabbit safe flooring works well. All rabbits need enough space for a full size litterbox, food and water dishes, space to hop around, and a spot to hide. Rabbits in a pen need daily exercise time outside the enclosure. <br/><br/>4. Outdoor play time is discouraged, but if you choose to allow short outdoor play in a secure area, be aware of hazards such as predatory birds, wild animals, neighborhood pets, and insects like mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas.<br/><br/>5. If you are renting your home, please have written consent from your landlord before you adopt.<br/><br/>6. For new adopters, we conduct an interview to make sure that the rabbit will be going to a safe environment.<br/><br/>7. When they are ill, rabbits require a veterinarian that specializes in exotic animals. Be aware that exotic veterinarians can be considerably more expensive than one for your cat or dog. Plan vet visits into your budget accordingly. Healthy rabbits need an annual wellness check and vaccination against RHDV2.<br/><br/>8. If you are looking to adopt a companion for your existing rabbit, your rabbit must be spayed or neutered prior to any introductions.<br/><br/>9. The final step to the adoption process is filling out a contract, which is specific to Friends of Rabbits. The cost to adopt a rabbit from us is $110 for a single rabbit and $160 for a pair. As of January 1, 2022, there is also a mandatory $50 RHDV2 vaccine fee per rabbit.<br/><br/>For more details and information about rabbit appropriate housing, rabbit diet, purchasing supplies, and a list of rabbit savvy veterinarians, please visit https://friendsofrabbits.org/adoption-checklist.
