Adorable Edinburgh rabbits search for forever home after 200 days in shelter

Two Edinburgh rabbits are searching for their forever home after 200 days in a local shelter.

The Scottish SPCA is seeking a new family for the adorable bonded pair of rabbits in the care of its Edinburgh and Lothians Animal Rescue and Rehoming Centre.

Despite advertising the girls, Marsha and Bear, the SSPCA have been unable to find anyone to take the "sweet" and gentle pair for months.

With Marsha a stunning white and Bear a sweet brown fluff ball, the two have become well-attached to each other and will need a large hutch for them to share.

Senior Animal Care Assistant, Gemma Barbour, said, “We would love to find Masha and Bear a loving home.

“These gorgeous girls have been in the Society’s care for almost 200 days. They are very sweet and well-bonded with each other too. They are friendly and enjoy interaction with their human friends.

“Bear is the more confident of the two with Masha often hiding behind her sister.

“They require an enclosure or hutch large enough for them both to hop around in, with plenty of enrichment and toys to keep them busy.

“Like most rabbits, Masha and Bear prefer to keep all four paws on the ground so we feel they’d be best suited to a home with teenage children, if any.”

People interested in rehoming Masha and Bear can apply on the Scottish SPCA website here.
