Here are ten rabbits in and around the Peterborough area that are looking for a new home.
The Peterborough Telegraph is running regular spotlights on pets that need new homes to support the work of animal charities in the Peterborough area.
The Peterborough and District Branch of the RSPCA do so much to rescue, nurture and subsequently rehome all kinds of pets in the area. They have continued to operate throughout lockdown and within a small radius are still permitted to rehome these animals.
Below are a selection of those that have been rescued and are in need of their forever home.
To find more details on each rabbit and to search for more rescue animals, visit www.rspca.org.uk/findapet/rehomeapet/process.
The RSPCA are funded entirely by public donations and receive no government money and therefore rely on the generosity of the public. Anyone wishing to support their work do so via www.rspca.org.uk/getinvolved/donate

This is Peanut and Blue. They both arrived at the centre after living in a multi animal house hold. They have always lived together which is the reason why we are looking for them to go to their forever home together. They are both a very adorable pair that really do devote on each other. They are both each others shadows and can always be found snuggled up with each other. They are a little shy when around people however they are both comfortable to be in our company. They are both fine to be handled even though they don't particularly enjoy it. Peanut does suffer from a blocked right tear duct in her eye. This has been seen here by our vet at the centre and sadly it is going to be something she will suffer with throughout her life. It is important that the person who is going to adopt them is going to understand that this is something that will need to be monitored constantly. Even with this issue Peanut doesn't let it bother her and will go about her normal daily life. Photo: Midlands

This is Dave! He arrived at the centre after being found abandoned with Dennis. Now that he have had some TLC, he is ready to find his new home. Dave is a very shy boy and does like to keep his distance from people. However, he is comfortable when people are around him. As Dave is still quite young he is still learning that it is okay to be handled. He will allow you to pick him up but may struggle until he settles. One thing you can catch Dave doing is sitting ontop of his cardboard box watching the world go by. We are looking for Dave to go to a home with a neutered female rabbit. As he is timid we think he will need somone that has plenty of patience with him. Once he is settled into his new home with his new friend we think he will have an big personality. Photo: Midlands

Dennis does like to get up onto plate forms so in his new home will need to have opportunites for him to do this. We are looking for Dennis to go to a home with a neutered female rabbit.
