Ebony and Siobhan

Ebony first found herself in care at the Surrey Branch in October 2010; after spending time in foster care Ebony was adopted with another bunny (Patrick) to a home here on the Sunshine Coast in May 2011. Sadly that home did not work out and so Ebony and Patrick were once again looking for a home.  Initially it was thought that they should be placed together, but after several months it became clear that though they lived fine together Ebony and Patrick did not interact with each other so the decision was made to rehome them separately if it helped find a home faster for them both.  

Which it did, with Patrick being one of the first adoptions of 2012 http://sunshinecoastspca.blogspot.com/2012/01/first-adoptions-of-2012-twilight-and.html

Yes, when you look at Ebony's picture you are seeing right!  She only has half of one ear.  If rabbits could talk Ebony would be able to tell us what happened to her ears, but as rabbits can't talk we'll never know . . . . but it certainly doesn't seem to bother her. A curious bunny, Ebony loves cardboard boxes to play in and a stuffed toy to groom. Whether it's with children's toys or shredding newspaper Ebony loves to play! A happy and affectionate rabbit with a curious personality Ebony is quite gentle and will take treats from you, she also loves her food and is litter box trained. What more could anyone ask for in a rabbit friend ?  But even with all those amazing qualities Ebony still waited almost four months for a new home; but the big day has finally arrived and Ebony has now gone to live with a very nice gentleman who has bunny experience. 

 
Siobhan originally found herself with us due to her previous owner having a few too many cats; after a short time Siobhan was adopted but was returned due to requiring extensive dental work.
 
Siobhan was once again adopted and her new people looked after her dental work . . . . . but sadly after just over a month returned Siobhan as she was too vocal during the night - and with one of the people in the home on shift work it was not working out.
 
As Siobhan is not vocal in the Communal Room and she was used to living with a large number of cats in her original home we felt that maybe Siobhan was lonely as an only cat ?  
 
Stunning and exotic looking, Siobhan caught the eye of anyone visiting the Communal Room, but people really do need to do their research on the Bengal breed as they have a lot of personality, are amazing athletes and yes, can be quite talkative.  Not one to snuggle in for extended periods of time - there is just too much to do during the day what with playing, exploring and leaping from cat post to cat post - Siobhan did enjoy short petting sessions but was soon off on another adventure.  But once again, it didn't take long for Siobhan to find herself a new home.

Siobhan has now gone to live with a couple who have done quite a bit of breed research and say they are fine with her vocalization and will work on any issues that may come up!  There is another playful cat on the property along with a small poodle to keep Siobhan busy.  Hopefully third time is a charm for this stunning girl.
