I was was brought into the sanctuary by a kind person that found me and my friend Mary dumped by the side of a road near to the sanctuary. We were left in a box. Thankfully the person found us and brought us to safety straight away. I lived with my friend Mary for over two years at the sanctuary, we became resident rabbits due to our health conditions. Sadly my friend Mary passed away recently. I have been coping well living on my own and my carers and sanctuary volunteers have been giving me lots of attention and extra enrichment. I am really enjoying the extra attention but I am feeling lonely due to being on my own, especially overnight when my carers go home. I have asthma. This can be triggered by change in seasons and by dust in my environment. I have snuffles and this can cause me to have respiratory problems. Sometimes I need nebulising when I have a flare up. I have not had a flare up for sometime now, but sometimes stress or a change in environment can trigger my illness. My carers feel that I would benefit from some one to one attention as an only rabbit to start with. Moving to a new home may trigger my pasteurella flare up. Having time to settle in a new home would be beneficial. Once I am settled we could look at the possibility of bonding me with a bunny friend that would be compatible to living with my health condition. I am quite a shy rabbit at first but once I know you I enjoy attention, playing ball with my favourite people and having a brush. I am very inquisitive and like having plenty of toys, tunnels and boxes to investigate. I require a long-term foster home. There will be the possibility to adopt me. If you are interested in fostering me please contact the sanctuary for more information. I could live with children that are 12 plus years
