The rabbits home

All my life, I have been misunderstood. You see, I'm a rabbit, and most people don't understand how to care for me. I live most of my days lonely in a cage outside. The cage is small and cramped and has wire as the flooring. The wire flooring is hard on my paws and causes pain.

Rarely do I get visited by the children of the home. It used to make me excited but I'm scared of them. They always try to grab me, pick me up, and touch me. I don't trust them enough for that and it scares me. I sometimes bite them lightly to let them know that I don't like it but then they think I'm a bad rabbit, and I get yelled at.

I wait lonely in my cage for days to have someone to love me but no one comes that understand my needs. No one comes that understands me. All I want is a bigger space to stretch my legs and a controlled temperature. Rabbits need lots of exercise in a day and in this cage, I'm not getting it. Plus, being outside makes it freezing in the winter and too hot in the summer.

I wait in the cage rotting for two years. I'm scared of every sound and occasionally wild animals come around. even if I don't see them I can smell them. One day I will die of a heart attack.

Every day is the same I wake up in fear and sleep in fear. One day a young woman comes over to the cage with my owner. "This is the rabbit," The man says. "Why are you selling him?" She asks concerned. "The kids wanted one but they got bored of it plus he's bit them a few times," he huffs. "how much?" she asks. "25 dollars," He replies uninterested.

After the exchange, the woman puts me in a carrier and into her car. My heart is racing and I have no clue what's happening. Eventually, she takes me to a building and lets me out inside.

The floor is wood which I need to get used to but it doesn't hurt my paws. There's a corner full of toys I can play with and a hideout that looks like a castle. I start exploring the area and eventually, I do binkies. The woman sits down and lets me come to her earning my trust. She never attempts to pick me up and she gives me lots of treats. I know I'm going to love living here.
