VERY sweet, high needs rabbit

Description

I have this wonderful little rabbit that I rescued from a lady basically giving him away because he has a condition in which his teeth grow way too fast. They grow like giant rings inside of his mouth, making it impossible to chew or swallow. The lady I took him from gave me instructions on how to conduct these trims and walked me through it once before I took him home with me. I did it myself a few times before I had a chance to get him in to see a vet, where they cautioned me against ever doing them myself again. The rabbit's teeth are the "worst" that vet has ever seen. They need to be trimmed every 3-4 weeks and it's about $25 every time. I simply cannot afford his care. $25 every three weeks would be expected for these trims, but you could stretch it to 4 weeks if you supplemented with a wet food called Critical Care. He currently eats rabbit pellets, raw oats, hay and occasional fresh treats. Now the other side- you know how bunnies are typically really hard to handle? This one is NOT. This bunny, while still shy like a normal rabbit, warms up quickly. I have him loose around me often and he'll come to my feet and chew on my shoes. He loves to play with the things he finds in my office. Once you catch him, which isn't actually all that difficult and gets less so every day, he's a joy to hold. Doesn't try to get away, just chills out and relaxes into it. Loves snuggles and pets. Will eat from your hand. Loves my five year old and ignores the baby when he's in here on the floor. He's honestly one of the sweetest rabbits I've EVER come across. Every time I take him in to the vet's the gush over how easy he is to hold and how unlike "normal" rabbits he is. I thought he would make a GREAT school pet before COVID made that basically impossible. He took a few months to be AS comfortable with me as he is; rabbits are slow to warm up to you. They're not like a cat or dog in that way. That being said, he's never been overly fearful and has been easy to handle since day one and remains so. He just trusts me the most. I wish he didn't make me sneeze and itch so badly. He weighs only a couple pounds I wanna say? He's a tiny runt. I believe he was unethically bred and that's what led to his miniature size and his teeth issue. He's easily held in one hand with no trouble at all. He's darling. Do you have a home setting that sounds perfect for him? Can you afford his upkeep and make an appointment soon with your vet or mine to keep his care on track? Do you have kids wanting a pet and you're looking for a gentle, quiet animal? Hit me up. I'll add photos to this post as soon as I get a chance. I have all the time in the world and I'll be VERY picky about where he goes. I don't have a cage to sell you because I'll be keeping my hutch for a pet I'm hopefully not allergic to. But I'll have a bunch of rabbit supplies to give you with the rabbit once I've decided you're the home for him. VERY picky about who he'll end up with. He's incredibly special. So please tell me about yourself, your family, what his life will be like, your previous pet experience... you know, that sort of thing. And also, don't love Trump. People who love Trump don't deserve sweet bunnies like this guy.
