        Oh God I can’t belive I’m doing this but here goes-  I’m giving Flopsey away. His gotten to be a bit of a handful, & sad as it is I don’t have enough time to spend with him. I feel like it’s the best thing to do, but it’s breaking my heart. I spent a LOT of time talking with my mom about this & we both feel like it’s the best thing for him.

         If anybody knows where I can take him, or if anybody is interested in having him please let me now. I REFUSE to put an ad in the local newspaper becouse I want him to go to a good home. I live a couple of hours away from Houston & I am willing to drive up there if need be.

         Flopsey is a six month old Mini-Rex. His the cuttest little bunny in the world ( at least in my eyes lol). He is VERY friendly, & he loves to lay in your lap. He has been to the vet but he has not been fixed yet. 

         Again I need your help, I just hate the idea of doing this but I’m in theater & it eats up a lot of my time. It’s not like I don’t want him ( God knows  I love my bunny to death), but I just want him to be happy.

          hi SassyGirl, this must be hard, to think about giving up what you love so much. I, too, have a mini rex. He used to be a handful before I got him neutered. He is very nicely settled into a routine now. I got my second rabbit actually just for him, so he wouldn’t be unhappy even if I’m busy. Once they are neutered or spayed it is possible for them to have a friend. I am not saying to go out and get another rabbit, it sounds like you are pretty involved with other things at this time. But remember, a rabbit can live up to 12 years and since he is so young it is a given he will settle down, especially after neutering. Plus, a rabbit sleeps most of the day, is there any way you could weeave him into your or your mother’s schedule in the morning? Rabbits love to play in the early a.m. hours… these are just suggestions. If you are determined to give him up, why not post some photos here of him for people to see… mini rex is a very popular breed because of their splendid coat and of course because of their outgoing personalities. You could have him neutered and see the difference in him… if you then still want to give him up, his chances of finding a good home will be increased because of already being fixed.

            I agree with Petzy, you’ll have better luck finding a good home for him if he is neutered first. Experienced rabbit owners know the value in adopting a rabbit that has already been altered and they may be more likely to contact you if this is done first. If you take that step before rehoming, it won’t seem as if he is a “problem that you’re trying to get rid of”. Please consider doing that since he is old enough at this point and at least you won’t have to worry that somewhere down the line he is contributing to the overpopulation problem.

              true about the neuter… If I see neuter I would go oh great  lets go see…  except of course I can’t have anymore rabbits ….. the extra work is too much for me…

              also with the neuter being a good idea cuz you wouldn’t want to him go to a new home and start spraying and they would not want him anymore cuz of that and rehome him once again….
