Meet Beirut & Budapest!

Beirut (male, tan) and Budapest (female, black) are the sweetest pair of bunnies. They enjoy cuddling together and grooming each other as they keep each other company throughout the day. These two are on the shy side, and need a home with some rabbit experience in order to socialize them.

Beirut and Budapest are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. They are spayed/neutered so you won’t be surprised by more bunnies.

House rabbits need a large, rabbit-proofed **indoor** area of your home to live in, with covered areas to hide and relax in. Rabbits are intelligent and social animals; they do best with a rabbit companion, and need daily interaction with their human friends. Rabbits should be fed high-quality hay pellets, unlimited hay, and fresh leafy greens. (Leaf lettuce, carrot tops, parsley, cilantro, and pesticide-free dandelion are good choices.) Treats include small portions of carrot or fruit, such as apple, berries, pear, grape or banana.

Your rabbits will need regular nail trims and vet checks. With proper care and lots of love, rabbits can live to be 10-12 years old. You are expected to make a lifetime commitment to your bunnies, and they should be treated as an integral part of the family. The primary caregiver must be a responsible adult, and young children should always be supervised when interacting with your bunny and instructed on proper approach and handling. Household cats or dogs should, of course, also be carefully supervised at all times and introduced in a calm and quiet manner.

Beirut and Budapest (SAS ID #A29137308 & A29138797) are being adored in a foster home. If you’re interested in adopting these two, please call the foster care hotline at 206-684-0685, or emailsasfostercritters@gmail.com.
