*Machi and Pierre's Story
** This is a courtesy listing for a bonded pair of bunnies ** <br/><br/>Macchiato (3 year old spayed female) and Pierre (4 year old neutered male) are searching for a new furever home! There current owner has been struggling with this decision for months, but because of declining health circumstances, their current owner is finding it more and more difficult to give them the love and care they need. <br/><br/>Macchiato, "Macchi," was adopted in the spring of 2023 from Bunny Lu when she was a year old. Her previous family had an indoor dog that was not compatible with her. It is because of this, that we ask for them to go to a no dog household so she is not afraid. She is just so sweet and loves being pet. She is less of a snuggler but will come for pets on her terms then wander off to lay down or investigate whatever interests her at that moment. She will hop over to the x-pen side when you come by and raise up on her hind legs without leaning on anything and see if you are going to pet her or give her a treat. She loves both and will sit patiently enjoying the pets...for a brief period before hopping off. She is obsessed with her ball pit and loves going in it to scratch around through the balls and toss them around her. She has never had any health issues and would love a home where she can really let out her zoomies!!<br/><br/>Pierre was one of a hundred released into the farmland and made his way over a mile where he current owner caught him in the fall of 2021. They took him in and had him neutered and made him part of the family. He craves love and attention and will lay beside you calmly or on your lap for hours while you stroke his fur and rub his ears while he periodically licks you lovingly. Pierre will come to the side of the x-pen every time you walk by and put his front paws on the first rung to get pets every chance he can. He is not fond of being picked up, but will tolerate it and snuggle into your neck. Per the vet, he does not always process calcium as well as he should, possibly due to genetics, but is very healthy and absolutely no issues as long as he is not fed high calcium foods and is given a sprinkle of over-the-counter potassium on his daily food.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>INDOOR HOMES ONLY<br/><br/>Come Meet Our Bunnies... <br/>Adoption appointments are available 7 days a week by appointment only. <br/><br/><br/>Adopting from Bunny Lu...<br/>We ask those interested in adopting from Bunny Lu to fill out the adoption form found at www.bunnylu.org/adoptions. Once approved, adoption appointments can be scheduled by texting or calling Mary Ellen at 703-753-0833 or emailing BunnyLuRabbitRescue@bunnylu.org. Please be sure to provide your name, address, and telephone number. <br/><br/>1. Bunny Lu will only adopt rabbits to responsible adults 18 years or older. If the rabbit is intended to be a pet for the entire family, all adults in the family must be on board with the adoption. These rules are in place for the wellbeing of the rabbits, which is our primary concern. <br/><br/>2. The bunnies must be kept indoors with a minimum of 4 feet by 6 feet of bunny-proofed space. This space needs to be in a location where the rabbits will receive daily interaction with their family. Rabbits are very social animals, so these daily interactions are extremely important. <br/><br/>3. Rabbits adopted from Bunny Lu must be picked up at the rescue in Waynesboro, VA. We will not ship any animal. <br/><br/>4. All bunnies adopted from Bunny Lu are spayed/neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated against RHVD 2. The microchips are registered to Bunny Lu so that the rabbits can be returned here in the event anything should happen to their adoptive family or their home. <br/><br/>5. First-time or inexperienced prospective rabbit parents are required to read “A House Rabbit Primer” by Lucile C. Moore, which is available for $15 at Bunny Lu or on Amazon. We feel this is the best book available to explain what living with rabbits is really like so that you can make an educated decision if a rabbit is the right pet for you.<br/><br/>6. First time bunny parents should be looking at adult rabbits, preferably rabbits over 2 years of age. Baby bunnies or any under 1 year of age will not be adopted to first time bunny parents.<br/><br/>7. The adoption fee is $250.00 for each bunny. This includes the cost of the spay/neuter, microchipping, and vaccination. Please ask about adoption fees for pairs. <br/><br/>8. If you are looking for a companion for your bunny, they must be spayed/neutered in advance. We encourage you to bring your rabbit to the adoption appointment so that they can have a trial run at the bonding experience. Please keep in mind that it may be necessary to introduce your bunny to several different bunnies before the right match is found. In our experience, we have found that the most successful pairing is between a neutered male and a spayed female. While same sex buns can get along, it is unusual. <br/><br/><br/>About Bunny Lu...<br/>Bunny Lu is a 501c3 non-profit, all volunteer rabbit rescue founded in 1999 to help domestic rabbits find loving homes and lead happy and healthy lives through education of their human companions. <br/><br/>1. We offer bunny-sitting! Bun-Sitters relax in a large pen with furniture to enjoy. All bunnies get pellets and veggies twice a day, along with fresh hay & water, just like all the bunnies in the rescue. We have an entire room dedicated to the space for our bun-sitters! Please contact us if you need to set up a bunny-sitting appointment.<br/><br/>2. We also sell bunny supplies and food to keep your bunnies happy! This includes things such as Orchard/Timothy hay, Mazuri pellets, Selective Naturals treats, papaya, bunny furniture and much more! These can be purchased at the rescue in Waynesboro, VA. <br/><br/>3. Donations are always needed to provide a roof over the bunnies' heads, food in their tummies, and medical care to keep them living long, happy lives! Your tax-deductible donations can be made through the following methods:<br/>Venmo: @BunnyLuRabbitRescue<br/>PayPal: BunnyLuRabbitRescue@Gmail.com<br/>Square: https://square.link/u/cCPHZVUR?src=sheet<br/>By Mail: Bunny Lu Adoptions, 11 Aero Drive, Waynesboro, VA 22980
