Lou

Pellets: 1/8 cup Oxbow Essentials Adult timothy pellet Hay: Unlimited mixed hay Salad: 1 cup low calcium greens (romaine lettuce, cilantro, butter lettuce) Say hello to Lou, the magnificent bunny who's all about space and attention. This big beauty was first adopted from our shelter in 2020 but found herself back with us in 2021 when her previous owner couldn't give her the time she deserved. Lou can be a bit defensive, especially if she feels threatened or startled. Quick movements might make her uneasy, but give her some space, and she'll warm up to you in no time. Treats like carrots are the way to Lou's heart, and she's not shy about reaching out for them! When she feels safe and comfortable, Lou is all about the snuggles and pets. She may even gently nudge you for more attention, especially on her forehead. This bunny loves nothing more than spending quiet, lazy days in the company of those she trusts. With he right home and a patient, understanding human, Lou can blossom into a loyal and loving companion. All she needs is a little time and a lot of love to truly shine! Medical History: Because Lou is over 5 years old, vets recommend annual bloodwork in addition to annual vaccines. Lou also has periodic weepy eye and very mild points in her teeth. Because she maintains a good appetite and good weight, our vet believes this may be normal for her but should receive an oral exam the next time she is under sedation for a treatment. Spayed, date unknown Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV) is a highly contagious and deadly disease caused by a calicivirus that affects both wild and domestic rabbits. It is not contagious to people or other animals. For the first time, the virus is causing deaths in rabbits and hares native to North America and is spreading rapidly. UPDATE: In May 2021, California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) has confirmed new cases of RHDV in rabbits in Kern, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Ventura County. In addition to detection of RHDV2 in wild cottontail rabbits and jackrabbits, RHDV2 has been confirmed in domestic rabbits on 50 premises, including a detection in a feral domestic rabbit.
