We have many rabbits from which to choose. We know their personalities. We’ll help you find just the right bunny. We’ll support you as you get your bunny settled into your home. Our adoption volunteers have many years of experience. The sales staff in pet stores are frequently unfamiliar with rabbits.
-
The rabbit you adopt from us will be spayed or neutered. The rabbit you obtain from most pet stores will need this procedure. The cost for this procedure can be $125 or more from private veterinarians. We have arrangements with veterinarians who perform the procedures for us at significant discounts because they support our work. By adopting a spayed/neutered rabbit from us you are, in effect, receiving that discount.
-
Our business model is to save bunnies and place them in just the right homes by working with you. The business model for most pet stores is to sell you pet supplies throughout the life of your pet. Selling you a pet is usually just a means to that end.
-
If the bunny you adopt from us doesn’t work out, we’ll take him or her back. We’ll help you select another one. But even if you don’t want to try again, we’ll take back any bunny you adopted from us - for any reason, for no reason, anytime. Most pet stores will not take back an animal they have sold.
-
Most pet stores obtain their rabbits from breeders. There are already too many unwanted rabbits in the world. Purchasing from a breeder only contributes to the number of unwanted animals in the world that suffer or are killed. When you obtain your pet from a rescue you help solve that problem and give a new chance for an animal to have a good life.
