Meet Koniji (bonded to Trixie)
Koniji is a very friendly and outgoing rabbit who is about 2-3 years old. He is always curious about what his people are up to and loves to sit with his bonded friend Trixie. He enjoys being pet but is also happy to sit quietly beside you while you do work or relax. He does well in a free roam environment or a large x pen and has excellent litterbox habits. He's great with people and does well with his friend Trixie, but struggles to bond with other male rabbits. It is unknown how he does with cats and dogs.
Koniji loves to come over to people and lay on the floor with them! He enjoys exploring and will start running around and binkying when he's allowed access to new spaces. He also likes to jump up onto your lap to see if you have any treats for him! He's very cute with his bonded partner and likes to flop on the floor next to her while she grooms him.
Koniji is a great hay eater and particularly likes timothy hay! He is also meticulous with his litterbox. He loves bananas, freeze dried strawberries, blueberries, English cucumbers, and hay chews. He loves his greens but particularly enjoys romaine lettuce and kale. He prefers timothy hay to orchard but will happily eat both.
He loves cardboard! He has a cardboard dig box and a house made out of cardboard, both of which he enjoys chewing. He loves any toys that are food related like his hay ball (a small ball filled with a little bit of alfalfa hay which he gets occasionally as a treat) and his bamboo chews. He also likes his forage mat, which he digs his pellets out of every morning.
Koniji is an exceptionally easygoing rabbit who would thrive with just about any owner. He's not a big chewer and has never chewed on baseboards or furniture. Koniji needed to have his teeth trimmed in late July of 2023 and may need to have them trimmed again in the future. However, he did not show any signs of malocclusion at his last vet visit.
If you are interested in adopting Koniji and Trixie, please fill out the application at https://friendsofrabbits.org/adopt/adoption-application/ and someone will call or email you to schedule an interview. Their adoption fee is $200 (for both) plus a mandatory $50 RHD vaccine fee per rabbit.

ABOUT FRIENDS OF RABBITS
Friends of Rabbits is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit animal rescue operating in the greater DC-metro area. We take rabbits at risk of euthanasia from shelters in Maryland, DC and Virginia. We also rescue abandoned and neglected rabbits and assist with large confiscation cases. We provide foster homes and veterinary care for our rabbits, have them spayed/neutered and find them new forever homes through our adoption programs.
Please note: We are not licensed to handle wildlife.
Come Meet Our Pets...
We have adoption events multiple times a month. Events take place at headquarters located in Columbia, MD and once a month in Fairfax, VA. We also have regularly scheduled events in local pet stores throughout the metropolitan region.
Our Adoption Process...
Prior to adoption, we ask that people fill out an application: https://friendsofrabbits.org/adopt/adoption-application/
1. The adopter must be a responsible adult, which is at least 18 years old. If a family adopts the rabbit, the primary caregiver must be an adult or a responsible older teen. Younger children may do the work necessary to care for the rabbit under the daily supervision of an adult. All adults in the family must agree on adopting the rabbit.
2. We do not adopt our rabbits out as classroom pets. Exceptions would be adoption to the teacher who may bring the rabbit into the classroom on a regular basis.
3. Rabbits are social animals. The adopted rabbit(s) must live indoors in an appropriate size space where they will receive daily interaction with the family. The best possible space would be freedom in a rabbit proofed room. If that is not possible, a dog exercise pen with rabbit safe flooring works well. Other options include a large dog crate or a roomy cage. The best cages are at least 42 to 48 inches long by 24 inches wide. The 24 inch width allows for use of the widest and deepest jumbo litter boxes, which work well for most rabbits. A custom space can also be constructed using shelving material. Caged rabbits need daily exercise time outside the cage.
4. If you are renting your home, please have written consent from your landlord before you adopt.
5. For new adopters, we conduct an interview to make sure that the rabbit will be going to a safe environment.
6. When they are ill, rabbits require a veterinarian that specializes in exotic animals. Be aware that exotic veterinarians can be considerably more expensive than one for your cat or dog. Plan vet visits into your budget accordingly.
7. If you are looking to adopt a companion for your existing rabbit, your rabbit must be spayed or neutered prior to any introductions.
8. The final step to the adoption process is filling out a contract, which is specific to Friends of Rabbits. The cost to adopt a rabbit from us is $150 for a single rabbit and $200 for a pair. The adoption fees include a goodie bag with rabbit care information, necessities, toys and a coupon for discounted rabbit supplies, and cover the cost of the rabbit's spay/neuter. As of January 1, 2022, there is also a mandatory $50 RHD vaccine fee per rabbit.
