  I’m really bad at keeping my eye on all my local rescue pages that do rabbits.
  
  Recently I offered to help out at a local no-kill shelter that mostly does cats and dogs. Turns out they are even more local now, having recently moved a few streets away from me! But they do occasionally get rabbits in – they are the shelter who had the blind rabbit I was asking about, but luckily for him, someone adopted him yesterday. I went to say hello anyway, and they introduced me to another rabbit, Chucky. He was quite scared of being picked up, but he actually settled into my arms quite happily once I supported him really well (it probably helped that I was wearing polar fleece!). He was then happy to snuggle up to my husband for a while. We both got angry grunts when we put him down though. We got snuggles for about 10 minutes while they took advantage and cleaned his cage.
  
  The originally said he was a dwarf lop, but to me he doesn’t look pure lop. He reminds me in some ways of a netherland dwarf, and I wonder if he is a cross.
  
  Either way, he will be coming home with us next week. We renamed him Greebo to go with our Terry Pratchett theme. We will be away for 1 week on our honeymoon, but as the shelter hasn’t had him neutered yet (that’s happening this week) it works out will that I can pick him up in 1 week.
  
  After my long ramble, meet Greebo! This is the only photo I have so far, but I’ll share more when he is home!

  Thanks everyone! Yes, come to think of it he looks just like a teddy bear!
  
  I do plan to try for a trio once Greebo’s hormones have settled down. Or paid him up with another small rabbit if my self control doesn’t last!

  Thank you everyone. I feel like once he gets used to being handled and realises he can snuggle up to people he will be a much more relaxed rabbit. He seems to be a keen digger too, if his behaviour at the shelter is to go by. So lots of digging toys I think!

  Oh that’s great, he’ll have so much fun with a shredded paper box! Breintje likes to dig as well, so we put his morning pellets into a box with shredded newspapers. He’ll dig at it for an hour, searching and pawing through it. That takes care of his morning bouts of hyperactivity ^_^

  Welcome to your new home Greebo!
  
  He is super curious and confident – exploring and eating straight away. We were still setting up his area of the study when he escaped from it (the barrier wasn’t quite ready!) and got very angry with me for putting him back when he had a whole room to explore!
  
  I think once he has settled he is going to have so many adventures!
