Big Bunny

Meet Big Bunny! He’s up for adoption, which we never really thought would happen. He has always hung back while we fed the other cats and we were never able to pet him, let alone touch him. He never seemed the least bit friendly – we were pretty sure he was feral, as we’ve seen him around for a long, long time.

Two weeks ago, after we narrowed the colony down to 2, he decided to let us pet him – and suddenly he became of the most affectionate cats we’d ever met! He absolutely loves to be petted, especially if you scratch his big old cheeks. He is a really great cat, and he’s not the least bit scared or skittish. He’ll come right to you and start rubbing on your hand – he’ll even jump up on his hind legs to reach you. He is an absolutely fantastic cat who deserves a great home.

Big Bunny got his name because of Bunny – you can read about her here. She has something wrong with her back legs and hops like a Bunny. Big Bunny is very clearly related to her – we assume her father, so the name just stuck. They look almost identical (Big Bunny is older, though).

BB, as we like to call him, has some marks and scratches and old bites on him, but they all seem to have healed just fine and are covered over by his thick fur (Although the vets had to shave his cheeks to make sure an old wound was ok, so he looks a bit silly these days!) We think he’s around 3 years old, so he’s got a long life of living inside and taking it easy ahead of him!
