How’s it hoppin’?

My name is Seraphina. I am a feisty female who has learned a lot since arriving at the shelter.

I can be territorial when you approach my space, but once out of my cage, I warm up quickly. I’ve had a lot of socialization with the nice folks here at the shelter, and I have learned that I sure enjoy delicious snacks!

I’ll need a home experienced with rabbits to continue with all the hard work I have been doing at EHS. With the right family, I know I’ll fit in and be a bun-tastic addition! Help me find a home for the holidays.
