Xena

Mix
Age: 2 years 4 months
Weight: 7.4 lbs.

Xena and her companion were turned loose by their owner. Xena, her companion, and baby rabbits from two back to back litters were captured by our volunteers. Poor girlie was absolutely TERRIFIED in the shelter. She delivered her third litter of babies within 60 days, 3 days after capture.

We pulled Xena and her babies to foster care. She was so nutritionally depleted, from her life on the lam and three back to back litters, that she did not produce any milk :(. Our volunteers hand raised her six surviving babies.

Xena has seen a LOT of trauma in her short life. She had made great strides in foster care learning to how to bunny, play with toys, and learn to trust. Xena is taking treats from her foster mama, does binkies at food time, and has the most amazing bunny flop. We are thrilled that she is decompressing and appears to ne enjoying life. Xena is not a fan of being petted at this point in time. We are hopeful she will trust enough to want pets as she continues to become braver every day!

Xena will require an extremely patient adopter with experience winning over animals slow to trust. She will thrive in a quiet home with a consistent routine.

Do you have the patience to love Xena while she adjusts to her new home?
