Double Mane Lionhead Rabbit Babies: Available for New Homes If you're looking for a pet that combines charm, beauty, and a gentle nature, our double mane Lionhead rabbit babies might be exactly what you need. These rabbits are not only a visual delight but also possess a temperament that makes them ideal companions. Below is an in-depth look at the characteristics, care requirements, and what you can expect from welcoming one of these unique rabbits into your home. Breed Characteristics The Lionhead rabbit is known for its distinctive mane of wool that resembles a lion's mane, which gives this breed its name. A double mane Lionhead rabbit carries two copies of the mane gene, resulting in an even more pronounced and luxurious mane. This mane extends around the head and can also appear around the flanks, creating a "skirt" of fur along the body. Appearance Mane: The double mane is the standout feature of these rabbits, with a thick, woolly texture that requires some maintenance to keep it free from mats and tangles. Coat Colours: Our double mane Lionhead babies come in a variety of colours and patterns, including: Tortoiseshell: A rich blend of black, orange, and cream, creating a beautiful mottled effect. Black Otter: A sleek black coat with contrasting tan or cream markings. Each rabbit has its own unique pattern, ensuring that no two are exactly alike, making them a truly special addition to any home. Temperament and Behaviour Double mane Lionhead rabbits are known for their friendly and affectionate nature. These rabbits are typically very social and enjoy interacting with their human companions. They are intelligent and can be litter-trained, learn their names, and even perform simple tricks with consistent training. Affectionate: These rabbits enjoy being petted and cuddled, often seeking out human interaction. Playful: They are active and curious, needing plenty of space to explore and toys to keep them mentally stimulated. Gentle: Known for their calm demeanour, they are well-suited for families, including those with children, as long as they are handled gently and with care. Care Requirements Owning a double mane Lionhead rabbit comes with specific care responsibilities, particularly concerning their grooming and dietary needs. Grooming: Regular Brushing: Due to their dense mane, these rabbits require regular grooming, to prevent matting. During shedding seasons, more brushing might be necessary. Nail Trimming: Regular nail trimming may be necessary to keep your rabbit comfortable and healthy. Diet: Hay: The main component of a Lionhead rabbit’s diet should be high-quality hay, which aids in digestion and keeps their teeth healthy. Fresh Vegetables: A variety of fresh vegetables should be offered daily, including leafy greens like romaine lettuce, kale, and spinach. Pellets: High-quality rabbit pellets should be given in moderation, as a supplement to their diet. Fresh Water: Ensure they have constant access to fresh, clean water. Housing: Spacious Enclosure: While Lionheads can adapt to life in an indoor enclosure, it should be spacious enough to allow for plenty of movement. A large cage with multiple levels or a playpen is ideal. Exercise: Regular exercise outside of their enclosure is crucial. This can be done in a rabbit-proofed room or a secure outdoor area where they can hop and explore. Health and Veterinary Care Our double mane Lionhead babies are raised with the highest standards of care, ensuring they are healthy and well-adjusted. They are in excellent health, ready for their new homes. Regular veterinary check-ups are recommended to maintain their health. Spaying/Neutering: We recommend spaying or neutering your rabbit to prevent unwanted behaviours and promote a longer, healthier life. Vaccinations: Certain vaccinations may be recommended. Consult with a rabbit-savvy veterinarian to determine the best care plan for your pet. Finding Their Forever Homes These double mane Lionhead rabbits are looking for homes where they will be loved and well-cared-for. They are a wonderful choice for individuals or families who can commit to their grooming and care needs and who are looking for a pet that offers affection and companionship. If you’re ready to welcome one of these special rabbits into your home, please contact us. We are dedicated to matching each rabbit with the right owner to ensure they go to a home where they will be cherished. Our rabbits are more than just pets—they are companions that bring joy, love, and a unique charm to any household.

Buyer's checklist for rabbits

1

Be responsible, do your research first

Getting rabbits is a massive commitment, so make sure you have researched all of their general needs, and those specific to their breed fully and have the time and commitment necessary to care for the rabbits. You can read our detailed information guide about rabbits for potential new rabbit owners. If you are looking for a rabbit to keep your rabbit company remember that they will both need to be neutered and that a male / female pair works best. Rabbits are a long term commitment as they can live up to 10 years.

2

Rabbits need a friend and space

Rabbits should never be kept alone, they need the company of other (neutered) rabbits. They need space to stand, hop, jump and run, and safe places for hiding. The absolute minimum space required 24/7 for up to 2 average sized rabbits is area 3m x 2m x 1m high.

3

Health check & welfare

It can be difficult for the average person to check if a rabbit is healthy or not. The seller should be willing to let you take the rabbit to a vet of your choice for a health check and return the pet within 48 hours for a full refund if there are health issues. If the rabbit has already been health checked, make sure you have this documented and phone their vet. Also remember rabbits need to be neutered so that they can live with other rabbits, and vaccinated annually to protect them against myxomatosis and RVHD1 and 2. Register with a rabbit friendly veterinary Practice. We would advise that you read the following article containing rabbit care and welfare information provided by the Rabbit Welfare Association and Fund (RWAF).

4

Report, don’t support!

If you believe a rabbit may be subject to irresponsible breeding, do not “rescue” the rabbit by rehoming it. Walk away and report the seller to us immediately.

5

Rabbits must be 8 weeks when collected

Rabbits must be at least 8 weeks old and fully weaned before they can leave their mothers. Most responsible sellers will keep their rabbits longer than this before they let them go to new homes. Make sure you take some of the food with you so you can change over to your own food gradually.
