Very unfriendly rabbit- Holland lop

Battle Ground WA

Description

This rabbit is both very cute and very psycho. She is a blue eyed white. She is a 6 month old female and we have had quite a few instances of aggression so extreme I wondered if she was rabid. In the first instance she lunged at my 3 year old, jumped on top of her and was biting while scratching and kicking with both sets of paws. I was not present for this instance (my spouse was) and (certain this had been some sort of misunderstanding) I opted to simply keep the two separated. In the second instance she was hopping around our fenced yard, I went inside for a moment and came back out and walked towards my garden at which point she rushed me and was jumping and attempting to bite my (barefoot) feet. I ran 20 feet away and looked back to find her down at my feet trying to scratch/box my legs. I then ran into the house and as I closed the door she literally slammed into it chasing me. I look out the back window to see my three year old standing there watching the hole thing and she begins to cry. I grab my broom which I use to run out and scoop up my toddler while blocking the rabbits attacks. I used the broom to corral her back in her pen. I have had a lot of rabbits, and none have ever behaved anything like this. This WAS a "well bred" pet but she's gotta go. My youngest child and myself are a bit traumatized. I'm happy to send pictures of her upon request, but she's a standard blue eyed white. Save the judgement though- while she was attacking me I had the creeping thought that one little kick would quickly end the situation but I didn't have the heart. If you have ANY use/ or home for her at all, please connect.
