Cosmo - Lort Smith Animal Hospital

Hi everyone, my name is Cosmo

Cosmo is a sweet, gentle rabbit looking for a special home where he can be your one and only bunny companion.

Cosmo has a history of Encephalitozoon cuniculi (EC), a parasite that can affect rabbits in different ways. Due to this Cosmo has had his right eye removed, Cosmo is currently doing well and enjoys all the things rabbits love, exploring, relaxing in cozy spots, and spending time with his humans.

Because of their medical history, Cosmo must be the only rabbit in the household. Although many rabbits carry EC without showing signs, introducing another rabbit could pose health risks and create unnecessary stress. A rabbit-free home is the safest environment for Cosmo.

What Cosmo is looking for:

🏡 An indoor home where they can live safely and comfortably.

❤️ A family who will enjoy building a close bond with a single rabbit.

🥬 A healthy diet, plenty of enrichment, and regular veterinary check-ups.

🐾 Someone who understands that special-needs pets can make wonderful companions.

Being an only bunny doesn’t mean Cosmo will be lonely, he will thrive on gentle interaction with his people and will reward your patience with his own unique personality and affection.

If you’re looking to give a deserving rabbit a loving forever home, Cosmo may be the perfect match.

Things to consider before adopting an animal

Adopting an animal is a rewarding experience that will last a lifetime. But before you adopt a pet please take some time to consider the commitment you are about to make. Sometimes the excitement of pet ownership can overshadow factors that should be considered before adoption.

Adopting a shelter pet is a lifelong decision that will have a major impact to your normal, everyday life. Please remember that a cat or dog can live for up to 20 years and they will rely only on you for their wellbeing for their entire life.

Do I have time to exercise the dog every day?
Do I have time for puppy pre-school and time to socialise a puppy?
Do I have at least an hour every day to spend with my cat?
Do I have time for obedience training?
If renting, does the landlord permit pets?
Is the backyard big enough and is the fencing secure?
Does the whole family want a pet?
Will the pet be allowed inside?
Will I have to move interstate or overseas in the foreseeable future?
Will I have to move to another rental property where the landlord may not allow pets.
