These delightful 5-month-old rabbits are the best of friends and are being adopted out as a pair.

Indigo is the more confident one and she looks after Lilac if she is feeling shy.

The inseparable friends are sweet-natured and enjoy sitting on laps and being patted.

The black-coated rabbits are looking for a home where they will be loved and cared for.

SPCA staff describe Lilac and Indigo as a "darling duo" who are as close as sisters.

They would be best suited to adults or older children.

All SPCA rabbits are temperament-tested, desexed, microchipped and vaccinated.
