“We are very pleased to be joining forces with Bristol Animal Rescue Centre (Bristol A.R.C.) to improve rabbit welfare in Bristol and the surrounding area. We will be providing funding to Bristol A.R.C. to cover the cost of neutering rabbits through Bristol A.R.C.’s outreach services. Eligible rabbit owners seeking support with neutering and vaccinating their rabbits can find our more on Bristol A.R.C.’s website here: Outreach Clinics “

Willow is a house bunny, 19 weeks old. She is in Salisbury and she needs a new home. Her owner Lea says she is generally lovely but can be a bit moody - that will likely improve once she is spayed. As she is not neutered or vaccinated, CottonTails will give £60 towards her spay and £40 towards her vaccination, payable in advance to the vet that will carry out the procedures. The new owner will arrange the neutering and vaccination to suit their location and vet preference.
If you can offer a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by PM (not comments) and we can go from there. Apparently her toys, food etc can go with her to her new home.

Waffles is a neutered male who was bonded to his brother but had to be separated due to fighting. He is in Bath and needs a new home.
If you can offer a suitable, permanent home to either rabbit, get in touch by PM (not comments) and we can go from there. Waffle is the lop with more grey on him. His temperament would indicate he may be best suited as a lone house bunny, but it is always possible with time, lots of patience, the right partner and luck he may eventually accept a new friend, but it is best to assume he may not and go from there.
Here is what owner Sam has said:

Name: Waffles
Sex: Male
Age: 6 Months (Approx)
Neutered: Yes
Microchipped: Yes
Vaccinated: Yes
Character:
Colouring: Grey, white and Black
Waffles is the dominant of the two brothets, he is a friendly and inquisitive, he would prefer to be a lone bunny and is pretty relaxed when on his own, he would be most suitably homed in a house where he has space alone or a hutch to himself.
He has a small chunk of fur missing from his ear from fights with his brother (Cinnamon)
Temperament:
Timid when alone or with humans, will not mix with other male rabbits
