Sally

Sally was one of over two dozen rabbits that had to be rescued from a property where they had long been abandoned. Neighbors tried their best to keep everyone fed, but ultimately it came down to many bunny-safe rescues and shelters in the area to help. Bunny Lu was able to help rehabilitate these bunnies, and we ended up with two here at the rescue, Sally and Samantha. Now that they have gone through all the necessary prerequisites, such as spaying, health checks, and socialization, they are ready to find their furever homes! Of the two bunnies, Sally is a bit more weary of humans (understandably so). However, she has never been aggressive towards us, she is just very shy. Sally does eventually learn to trust the humans who are bringing her food and keeping her safe. Also, Sally does have a bit of a medical condition from before we were able to save her. She has a condition called eyelid agenesis, which is a birth defect where her eyelid never fully formed. This does not seem to bother her at all, but it does mean one of her eyes appears smaller than the other. Sally would do very well in a calm, peaceful furever home where she can learn how to be a house rabbit, instead of a rabbit who was stuck out in a shed in a cage that was barely bigger than her. INDOOR HOMES ONLY Come Meet Our Bunnies... Adoption appointments are available 7 days a week by appointment only. Adopting from Bunny Lu... 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 [email protected]. Please be sure to provide your name, address, and telephone number. 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. 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. 3. Rabbits adopted from Bunny Lu must be picked up at the rescue in Waynesboro, VA. We will not ship any animal. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.   About Bunny Lu...
