Chase, Featured Bunny

This week’s featured bunny is Chase, a spayed female English spot mix looking for a loving home.

Chase is mainly white with black spots. She is rather calm, and loves to have her picture taken! She is approximately 6 years old. When approaching her cage, she won’t run away from you. She is not territorial or cage aggressive at all. She loves snuggling under fleece blankets when she is cold. She is not scared of being picked up, she won’t kick you while in your arms if you are slow and gentle. Chase absolutely loves playing with brooms; she can’t get enough of scratching at one!

Chase is a very sweet bunny, she;s already spayed, and she’d do great in a home with other bunnies!

This featured bunny is brought to you by Little Miracles summer intern, Jenny O. If you enjoyed her post, let her know by writing to her at InternJenny@littlemiraclesrr.org

Chase came to live at Little Miracles in the summer of 2011 – the shelter’s president and vice president were driving in Rancocas when they spotted a white blur run by and duck under some large pine trees. When they stopped the car, they found this beautiful (but dirty) bunny who was living under the trees near a dangerous curve in the road. Poor Chase was covered in fleas and ticks – she was filthy from oil and dirt from hiding under cars. She has a small cataract in one eye which doesn’t seem to impair her vision – it could be from her age (we estimate her to be around 5 years old, which isn’t a senior in bunny terms) or it could have been from a scratch or injury to the eye.

It took almost an hour in the middle of a lightening and thunder storm for them to catch Chase – ultimately trapping her under a clear plastic tote. She was wet and scared, but once “in custody” she was very lovable. Chase doesn’t mind being held – she will climb into your lap for cuddles. Chase holds a special spot in our hearts, she’s one of our favorite bunnies and would do well bonded with another bunny, or as a solo bunny for a first time bunny family. She adores attention, loves to cuddle and even likes being gently brushed. She’s short-haired so she doesn’t shed very much – and only twice a year (after summer and after winter).

We know that if you meet Chase, you’ll love her as much as we do! Make an appointment to see her by calling Pam, our adoption counselor, at 856 685 4061 or fill out an application for adoption at our website - http://www.littlemiraclesrr.org/rabbitapplication.html
