spayed female giant lop rabbit

The very first thing you notice about Izzy is her size - she's a Giant Lop, and yes, she's big! Weighing in around a healthy 15 pounds, she can easily outweigh the family cat! With her long, lop ears she is a striking gal whose photo does not do her justice. Izzy came to us with, entropion, or inverted eyelids. Hers were turned inside out, which is a painful condition that was corrected by surgery. This causes her eyes to look bloodshot and gives her a bullish look. While this condition is corrected and will not return, we recommend that her new family take her in for yearly check ups just to have the eyes examined and make sure they're fine. Izzy is very possessive of her cage and does not like it when we clean it or otherwise attempt to make adjustments to her interior decorating. It's hers, and she will grunt and lunge to make sure you know she does not appreciate the intrusion! Outside her cage, however, Izzy is very friendly, hopping around our feet, allowing visitors to pet her head, and enjoys exploring the room. Because of her size, she will require a large cage and an environment where she can spend many hours a day outside of it. Because of her aggressive tendencies, she will not be placed in a home with children under the age of 13. We don't know much about her past other than the fact she was abandoned in an apartment, but we are quite sure that she's waiting for the right home to make her future safe, sunny, and bright, and hopefully some of her cage aggression will melt away as she learns to trust the humans in her life. Are you ready for such a challenge? Come in and meet our "Big Bertha"!
