While dogs and cats remain the popular choice for companion animals, rabbits can make amazing and loyal friends. Here’s just a few reasons why:
- They’re quiet and don’t take up much room – perfect for city living.
- Rabbits form strong bonds with their guardians.
- They can be as cuddly as a dog or cat.
- Rabbits can be litter box trained.
- Their schedules match ours. They’re most active at dawn and dusk.
- They are full of personality and character.
- Despite their small size, they live longer lives – around 10 years is their estimated life span.
We usually have a number of loveable rabbits available for adoption. Pictured are Mallow, Sonic, and Poppy. You can find them all at www.AlexandriaAnimals.org/adopt.
