After the sessions with Sarah, he has become a
new and much more fun bunny.
Keeper Adam Rogers said: "He came to the
home as a stray and he was a very aggressive rabbit.
"But he's the most intelligent animal I
have ever worked with and we think he had been stuck in a very small cage and turned
aggressive because he was bored."
The charity is hoping to find a permanent
owner for Monty and his new mate, Purdy, but the new owner has to be somebody that
understands rabbits.
Adam said: "Although Monty's behaviour is
much improved, he's definitely not a plaything, he has to be treated as a special needs
rabbit."
Both dwarf lop rabbits have been neutered.
Monty is litter trained so he could be homed
as a house rabbit or kept outside in a large permanent enclosure with plenty of
stimulation, such as activity balls or climbing structures.
