Adoptable rabbit Buntilda is ‘earresistible’

Published August 25, 2022 at 9:30AM

Buntilda the rabbit is up for adoption with the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria.

The 15-month-old female agouti-colored rabbit is shy at first, but AWLA staff and volunteers have been working with her on socialization via target training, and she is so much more comfortable meeting and approaching new people, according to AWLA spokesperson Gina Hardter.

“Buntilda is a champion chewer, but only when it’s appropriate,” Hardter said. “Whether it’s hay, veggies or a fun wooden toy, Buntilda loves to keep her gnashers in shape with some rabbit-appropriate munching.”
