That giant rabbit has found a home and he’s even got his own pram

That giant rabbit has found a home and he’s even got his own pram

A giant rabbit has finally found a loving home.

Atlas the continental giant rabbit – who’s roughly the same size as a dog – was taken in by the Scottish SPCA when his former owner could no longer look after him.

But now Atlas has been given a new home with Jen Hislop in North Ayrshire.

Jen, 43, a financial fraud investigator, was selected from hundreds of applicants to rehome eight-month-old Atlas.

She said: ‘I burst into tears when I got the phone call saying I had been chosen to rehome Atlas and I cried again when I collected him.

THE big bunny received hundreds of adoption offers from animal lovers across the world - including model Katie Price - but he has found a new home in Ayrshire.

ATLAS the giant Scots rabbit has found a new home in Ayrshire.

The Continental Giant, which is the same size as a West Highland Terrier, became a global sensation after the Scottish SPCA launched an appeal to find him a new family.

Atlas arrived at the charity's rehoming centre in Glasgow last month and were overwhelmed with hundred of offers from animal lovers all over the world to take him in - including glamour model Katie Price.

But the SSPCA were keen to keep the rabbit on Scottish soil and chose a family based in North Ayrshire instead.
