My girlfriend would really like a bunny and if anyone has one for sale or is giving one away let me know. She would prefer a baby rabbit.

there are a lot of babies here, and the adoption price is reasonable. Don't forget to spay or neuter your bunny.

Also, The Pet Pad at the corner of Kildaire Farm and Cary Parkway in Cary sells bunnies, some very small and cute, and they always have some

the petco i work at got in a cute white one yesterday. 100 bucks, already neutered

10/3/2007 10:56:20 AM

I really hate the word "bunny".

10/3/2007 11:47:20 AM

$100 for a rabbit ??

I used to breed, show, and sell rabbits back in hs. $25-$50 was the average price for a purebred show quality rabbit..

$100 is crazy

Check http://www.raleigh.craigslist.com
there's always a few rabbits posted that need homes. The ASPCA often has rabbits. Check online for some local rabbit rescues.

I would not suggest getting one at the State Fair. While there will most likely be some babies for sale - the animals there are exposed to A LOT and are usually extremely stressed out. Many develop upper respiratory problems or suffer from heat exhaustion/stroke (if it's hot out).


If you end up getting a male rabbit - neuter it. Males will spray in the house.
Females are usually more tempermental and can become territorial of their cage.

^ Considering the spay/neuter can cost $300+, a neutered rabbit for $100 isn't a bad deal. And it's also important to spay a female rabbit (not just males) because they have a very high incidence of ovarian cancer if not spayed.

I had my male rabbit neutered for $80 (years ago).

10/3/2007 1:25:54 PM

aww you should get Bonnie, Dutch rabbits are the cutest..mine is black and white, she looks like a Panda Bear

10/3/2007 1:51:23 PM

^^ good luck finding a place to do it for 80 now

10/3/2007 3:39:09 PM

^ Yeah, my spay was 360. I found other places that would do it for ~275, but I wanted to go to Avian and Exotic. Of course, spays are more expensive, but not threefold more.

10/3/2007 6:04:05 PM

damn that is alot of money to pay for a rabbit GG. I thought they was real cheap like 5 bucks or free i mean they dont rly do nothing but eat shit sleep and stink

10/3/2007 8:45:17 PM

^actually my rabbit is really fun. She'll lay with me, if i pat on the ground she'll run up to me for me to pet her, i can rile her up and play with her like a puppy. BUT I am always playing with her and I treat her like a person so..

10/3/2007 10:40:43 PM

yea i mean they are cute as hell i just didnt know they could be so much is all i guess. cant you like litter box train them too like a cat?

10/3/2007 10:42:13 PM

yea, Snickers is litter box trained and i found this great litter from Petco that is made of all Natural things like Rose petals and stuff...and it really does smell like roses, even her fur smells like it.

this is my baby

I almost named my bunny Snickers ... but then I named her Bailey instead

10/4/2007 12:34:35 AM

i have a bunny just like ^^. except mine is named Moo b/c my mom isn't creative. then when i brought her to raleigh to live with me my bf renamed her twinkles and she got really confused about what her name was. i wish my apt allowed pets, i really want to bring her back up here.

10/4/2007 4:49:07 PM

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions, but apparently she's looking for a particular kind of rabbit. A lionhead dwarf to be specific. They look like little furballs. And as much as it hurts to say it, they're cute. I've looked at a few sites, and there seems to be a lot in New Jersey, which doesn't do me too much good in NC.

Again thanks for all the help so far.

i just think that anyone over the age of 4 sounds silly saying it (as opposed to "rabbit")

same thing with "tummy".

10/4/2007 5:56:30 PM

^^ we get lionheads from time to time at petco

10/4/2007 7:33:23 PM

I was just informed while making a few phone calls that if I happened to purchase a rabbit (happy duke?) that wasn't spayed or neutered, a place in Wake Forest can do it for around $100.

North Wake Animal Hospital
(919) 556-1121
2160 S Main St
Wake Forest, NC 27587

http://www.insiderpages.com/b/3717610042

The place seems to be highly recommended.

10/4/2007 9:06:27 PM

There's a place in Benson that sells them for like $20. I bought one for $15 around Easter....they always have rabbits.

PM if you want the location.

10/4/2007 9:37:34 PM

aww ... isnt that the cutest little bunny tummy you ever did see!

^^ i take my pets and fosters to North Wake Animal Hospital.
They're a clinic. You don't have to make an appt for a regular vet visit (vaccines and tests).
If it's a surgery (spay/neuter) then you do need to make an appt.

They are VERY reasonably priced. The vets are great. I've seen Dr. Darsch and another vet (can't remember her name).

It's a bit of a drive but worth it
