Mini-lop rabbit, aka Holland lop
Oryctolagus cuniculus

Field Notes
Description:
Hector weighs about 1.7 kilos, is the color "chocolate otter", and makes a very personable and hilarious house-pet. He trains dogs and reads Proust in his spare time.
Habitat:
Our house, which he begrudgingly shares with two Pyrenean Mountain Dogs (and two humans).
Notes:
We call him our "eco-pet", as, other than two bought bales of grass hay per year, he only eats vegetables from our garden and grass, dandelions, etc. we gather from our yard. We don't feed pelleted food as it has been linked to several diseases in domestic rabbits. He's not allowed outside because we have myxomatosis virus here which is deadly to rabbits.
