Female rabbit to be re-homed

Sadly Miss April lost her bonded buddy a couple of weeks ago and with us looking to relocate houses she would benefit from a new forever home. April is lovely, very active and inquisitive therefore she would need a decent sized enclosure (we are happy to give away our large rabbit enclosure with her). Ideally she would go to a home that already has a rabbit(s) as she is quite social and misses having company. We have a bag of hay, pellets, etc to give to April's new caring owners. Please note that she is not de-sexed.
