Silk and Satin were surrendered by their owners as their rabbits had bred leaving them with ten rabbits which they also couldn’t afford to vaccinate and neuter.
They have now been neutered, microchipped and vaccinated and are ready to look for a new home.
They are both Rex rabbits and have lovely silky soft fur. They are both very confident and friendly rabbits and will let you stroke them but aren’t too keen on being handled.
They love their food and will literally mug you for their nuggets and veg! They are great hay eaters as well and love having a bit of veg each day as a treat. They are fine around children and rabbit friendly dogs and are fairly confident, Silk being the most confident and Satin being a little more reserved.
Satin has an old scar on her nose but this has been vet checked and given the all clear. Because they are Rex rabbits and are prone to sore hocks we are looking for either and indoor home with soft flooring or outdoor housing that can provide soft flooring such as hay, blankets. All in all they are lovely, friendly and confident rabbits that will give you many hours of fun.
