Featured Adoptables: Clyde the Rabbit

The Lawrence Humane Society always seems to house the cutest small and furry rescue animals!

Case in point: Clyde, one of seven rabbits currently up for adoption at the Lawrence HS.

Clyde is a very sweet bunny who was found abandoned by his owners and brought to the Lawrence Humane Society by a caring citizen. He’s a very strong-willed bunny and is a little shy, so he may need a patient owner to take time to get him used to being loved and handled by people.

There is a $15 adoption fee for this bunny.

While spaying/neutering of pet rabbits upon adoption is not legally required in Kansas, the Lawrence Humane Society strongly advocates spaying and neutering all pets.

Spaying/neutering can have a number of benefits for pet rabbits – improving health and temperament, reducing problem behaviors, and ultimately helping to reduce the rabbit overpopulation problem. Read more about the benefits of spaying and neutering here. Since well-cared for rabbits live anywhere from 8 to 12 years, spaying/neutering is an excellent investment best discussed with your veterinarian.

This is just one of many rabbits at the Lawrence Humane Society who are looking for a home right now. Come visit this bunny and many others in the handheld pets room!

Each Wednesday, the Kansas City Freecycle blog will feature one adoptable animal from a local KC rescue group or animal shelter.

We do this for several reasons:

- To highlight the plight of abused, neglected and/or homeless non-human animals in the Kansas City (and surrounding) area.

- To remind members of our no-animal policy, and provide an alternative venue for members who wish to adopt an unwanted animal companion.

- To encourage members to adopt a furry, feathered or scaled friend.

- To help out out local animal rescue groups and animal shelters, many of which are overwhelmed by the sheer number of animals in need.

- To illustrate these animals’ unique personalities and characteristics, thus underscoring the fact that they are not objects and should not be “freecycled”.
