A pair of rabbits who have found each other despite tragedy are after a new home.

Currently being fostered in Alsager after not ideal previous owners, the two bunnies can be adopted from RSPCA Macclesfield.

Rachel White, Communications Co-ordinator of RSPCA Macclesfield, had to say about the duo who are currently living in safe but temporary hands in Alsager.

"Augustus and Muffin, two very beautiful bunnies," she said.

"Augustus (Gus for short) looks a bit hare-like in shape but quite small like a Mini Rex.

"He was adopted and bonded back in 2018 but his partner has since died so he was bonded with Muffin from another branch so he was no longer bereaved, but the owners already had plans to move and do not want to continue with rabbit ownership, so they are looking for a new home.

"We are rehoming them directly from their current home.

"Prior to this Gus had a terrible life, along with 50 other rabbits, all with no food or water, living in filthy conditions.

"It is no wonder he was so frightened of everything way back when. Muffin was advertised on social media and the other branch stepped in because of the conditions she was kept in. They are neutered, microchipped and vaccinated. They need a young child and a dog-free home.

"If you'd be interested in sharing your home with this lovely pair please contact our Rehoming Co-ordinator on [email protected] or leave a message on 07846 539500."
