Henri is a Mini Lop breed of rabbit. He was adopted from TLC Rabbit Rescue in Tallahassee, Florida.
Henri is the sweetest one of our troop and probably the oldest. He loves to be held which is unusual for most rabbits.
He also likes to give kisses on occasion. Henri was taken into rescue from a shelter that had little experience with
rabbits. They were going to euthanize him when rabbit rescue stepped in at the last minute. Good thing because
he is the sweetest rabbit we have ever seen. He was first bonded with Collette and later with Thumps and Leopold.
In 2009 we almost lost Henri and he had to have emergency surgery to remove a bladder stone that was
about the size of a quarter! He practically tapped danced out of the hospital he felt so much better. That is
one big stone for a 6 lb rabbit!
Collette is our first French Lop and she has angora wool instead of fur. This is an undesirable
genetic rarity in French Lops and many breeders cull them from their herds. She came to us from a breeder/rescuer outside
of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She is the only one of our rabbits who has ever flew on a plane! We are saving her
wool which has to be sheared periodically in order to have it spun. She is a big friendly girl at 15 lbs and when full
with wool she looks like a Tribble with a head! She was first bonded to Henri and later also with Leopold and Thumps.
