Name: Riley
Age: Young adult
Sex: Male
Breed: Lionhead
Ref number: 82
Personality:
Riley had a bit of a bumpy start to life with a lot of relocation, therefore even though quite curious, he is a little timid. He is looking for a neutered female rabbit to be his companion, where he can feel safer when exploring new spaces. And share his love for dandelion leaves!
Behaviour:
Since arriving at the centre, Riley has shown that he can be a bit nervous and unsure with close contact or quick movements. He is slowly finding his paws and confidence with his surroundings. Riley’s new family will need to provide a patient approach to build trust and familiarity of being handled when needed. He will require at least one meeting where staff can discuss his requirements and the bonding process.
