Buttons

Buttons was an owner surrender in September 2023 due to the kids no longer having an interest in her. Buttons is a beautiful, young Mini Lop. She is only around a year and a half old. She was born on April 10, 2022. She loves exploring and exercising. She is easy to hold and pet. Her previous owner had kids, so she is used to them. She can be independent times, and will let you know when she wants to be unbothered. She would make a great bunny for a family who will respect her and her wishes. All rabbits must have an adequate exercise area, whether it is a supervised exercise pen or an area in the house. The most important component of the rabbit's diet is hay, a roughage that reduces the chance of blockages and malocclusion while providing indigestible fiber necessary to keep the gut moving. Grass hays such as timothy are generally preferred. Lastly, always remember that your bunny needs to have some type of rabbit approved wooden chew toy, so that they may wear down their teeth to help prevent malocclusion (abnormal tooth growth) issues. IndyCLAW Rescue is founded on the premise of 'Creating Life-long Animal Welfare'. We do have an adoption contract and do home visits to ensure that this pet will be achieving a life-long home. There is also an adoption fee. Each rabbit is spayed / neutered prior to adoption and the adoption fee only partially reimburses our expenses in preparing your new pet. Because of the home visit, we must limit the adoption distance to within one hour travel from our shelter. We do not ship our adoptable pets nor do we adopt unaltered rabbits. Having trouble deciding which bun will be your companion? Consider being an IndyCLAW volunteer. You will clean bunny cages and provide socialization to the many rabbits we have in our shelter and can learn their many different personalities to be able to make an informed choice. You'd still be welcomed to continue being a volunteer. We have a few fosters, all of which are volunteers, for some special rabbits ranging from buns needing TLC or meds to those that just need time away from the shelter to be a house rabbit with individual attention. Also, for a reasonable donation to IndyCLAW, we can house your rabbit or place it with a foster while you are away on vacation, business trip, hospitalization or other short term event causing you to be away. *Due to most rabbits being rescued as strays or brought in from animal control, most rabbits' birthdays are unknown and ages are a best guess.* Please email [email protected] with any questions and a completed application.
