Hey everyone!
I figured I’d introduce myself and my little man..
I’m Brittany and I rescued my bun about a month ago, I have named him Yeti.
the vet says he’s a lionhead but I’m not so sure. whatever he is, he’s adorable.
we are hoping to find some friends and advice and i figured ‘hey why not sign up!’
so here we are…
Brittany and Yeti,

Thank You. Yeah the neighbour moved and left him in his garage.
tried getting a hold of him with no luck. so we took him to the vet. got him neutured and checked out. hes a healthy guy.. we have no idea what his breed is.. for some reason i believe hes a mix (is that possible?) the vet said lionhead. im not so sure. we dont know how old he is either.. which is a little stressful. but i believe hes still a baby due to his weight. if buns can be 6lb’s… and hes just under 2.. he must be young. -
Welcome Britt!
That was amazing of you to rescue Yeti. I can’t believe his previous owners just left him locked up in the garage like that. That is HORRIBLE!!! My first bun Beatrix I found in my yard so I had no idea what she was, or if she was even a girl. When we took her to the vet they told us she was a wild mix, female and also about a year to a year and a half old and she weighed 2 pounds. We thought because of her small size she was a baby. I’m suprised your vet didn’t mentnion age. From the pictures Yeti looks like a cross between a lionhead and something else…I’d say a Jersey Wooly but he doesn’t have the hair. A dwarf of some kind maybe? With so many different breeds its so hard to tell. Either way he looks precious!

Welcome.
I just heard recently that the lionhead breed usually is on the small size- I’m not sure how accurate that is but age isn’t always based on weight. My Bunjamin is a year old and only 2.5 lbs. Maybe your vet could help you with age. I’m so happy you rescued him! He looks cute in your profile picture.
