Bunnies aren’t just for Easter and to prove it we have found some cute little cotton tails, you’re going to find it hard to resist.
These are just some of the rabbits currently being cared for at the Taunton RSPCA in West Hatch who are looking for forever homes.
If you are unable to adopt an animal from them right now, you could consider making a donation instead.
But, if you are looking to add a long-eared, fluffy friend into your home, perhaps one of these could make the perfect match.

Age: 3-6 months
Hobnob is another young male lop who is looking for a new home with a neutered female rabbit.

Rio and Esther
Breed: Domestic
Colour: Harlequin
Age: Approximately 1 year
Rio and Esther are a pair of rabbits looking for a home together.
Esther, the spayed female, was signed over by her owner as she fought with her sister, while Rio was found to be living in unsuitable conditions.
It is possible that Rio may be a hermaphrodite with both male and female reproductive organs.
The rabbits were introduced to each other at the centre and they took to each other very well.
Both Rio and Esther are friendly, particularly Rio, who will come racing over for attention!

Hamilton and Kilkenny
Breed: Dutch crossbreed
Colour: Agouti
Age: 0-3 Months
Hamilton and Kilkenny are a pair of juvenile neutered male and female half-wild rabbits.
Their mum is a well-handled Dutch rabbit who was allowed to roam free in her owner’s garden, dad is most likely a wild rabbit.
They were very nervous when they arrived at the centre and may always have a skittish side due to their wild parentage. However, they have quickly gained a great deal of confidence and will readily hop over to take some nuggets from your hand and will accept being stroked.
The duo do not enjoy being handled though and prefer to keep their feet firmly on the ground!
To find out how to adopt Hamilton and Kilkenny, visit the RSPCA website.
Taunton RSPCA states a pair of rabbits will require unrestricted access to a space measuring 6ft by 10ft, totalling 60 square feet. This is equivalent to a 6ft by 2ft hutch with an attached 6ft by 8ft run.
A bunny home must also contain enrichment and furnishings to allow them to hide and exhibit natural behaviour.
A converted shed with a run or unrestricted access to the entirety of a rabbit-proofed indoor room would also be appropriate.
The charity asks for a £50 adoption fee per rabbit which contributes towards neutering, vaccination with the combined Nobivac Myxo-RHD Plus vaccine, microchipping, and a teeth check under anaesthetic.
