Description

MILK — ADORABLE 5-MONTH-OLD LONG-HAIRED BUNNY LOOKING FOR HIS FOREVER FAMILYMilk is a charming 5-month-old long-haired rabbit whose previous family loved him but could no longer provide the care he needed. They shared that he’s an excellent bunny who never tried to hop out of his 4-foot indoor pen and is fully litter-pan trained — a true superstar.Grooming Matters — Especially for Long-Haired RabbitsBecause long-haired bunnies don’t exist in the wild, they need help keeping up with their fluffy coats. Regular grooming prevents dangerous tangles and protects them from internal health issues.Why grooming is essential:• Rabbits groom themselves often, and ingesting too much fur can create deadly blockages.• Unlike cats, rabbits cannot vomit, so hairballs can develop into serious conditions like GI Stasis or bloat.• Long-haired breeds are especially at risk since their fur mats and tangles more easily.• Daily or every-few-days brushing is ideal to keep them healthy and comfortable.Their skin is very delicate, so mats must be removed carefully to avoid tearing. Regular grooming keeps long-haired rabbits safe and happy.What Milk Needs in a HomeMilk will thrive with space to run, jump, and stretch — movement is essential for rabbit health.Housing Options:• A large puppy pen• A custom bunny condo• A fully bunny-proofed roomTraditional wire cages are too small for his needs and should only be used as a home base.Flooring:• Use solid, non-slip flooring• Avoid wire mesh, which can cause painful soresReady to Adopt Milk?If you’re experienced in rabbit care and can commit to Milk’s grooming and enrichment needs, he would love to become part of your family.Please visit in person to meet him.THE 3–3–3 RULE3 Days to decompress3 Weeks to learn routines3 Months to build trustAdoption DetailsAdoption Fee: 20Location: 430 Bristol Drive, Statesville, NCHours:Mon–Fri: 12–5 PMSat: 11 AM–2 PMFirst come, first served • In-person adoptions onlyMilk • A3190545 months old • Neutered male • 3.50 lbs#adoptfromicas #myicasrescue
