How to Choose My Bunny
Adopting a rabbit is a wonderful decision — and finding the right match makes all the difference. Here's what to consider before you choose.
What to Consider
Before falling in love with a face, make sure you're ready for the responsibility — and the joy — of rabbit ownership.
Personality Over Looks
Every rabbit has a unique personality. Some are bold and curious, others are shy and gentle. Spend time with the bunnies at our adoption events to see who you connect with — don't just choose based on color or breed.
Single or Bonded Pair?
Rabbits are social animals and do best with a companion. A bonded pair means they always have a friend, are less likely to get lonely, and often require less one-on-one attention from you. We highly recommend adopting a bonded pair if your home allows it.
Space Requirements
Rabbits need room to run, jump, and explore. A puppy exercise pen (at least 4×4 ft) is the minimum for one rabbit. They also need daily free-roam time outside their enclosure. Make sure your home can accommodate this before adopting.
Time & Commitment
Rabbits live 8–12 years and require daily care — fresh hay, water, greens, litter box cleaning, and social interaction. They are not low-maintenance pets. Make sure your lifestyle can support a long-term commitment.
Children & Other Pets
Rabbits can be great family pets, but they are prey animals and can be easily frightened. Young children must be supervised around rabbits. If you have dogs or cats, introductions must be done carefully and gradually.
Vet Care
Rabbits require a rabbit-savvy vet — not all vets treat them. Annual checkups, spay/neuter (all our rescues are already fixed), and occasional illness or injury care are part of responsible rabbit ownership. Budget for vet costs.
All our rabbits are already spayed or neutered.
Every bunny we adopt out has been spayed or neutered, vaccinated where applicable, and health-checked. You're adopting a rabbit that's ready for a loving home — no extra vet visits required right away.
How to Find Your Match

Visit Our Adoption Events
We hold adoption events every Saturday from 10 AM to 3 PM at Floyd Lamb Park, and by appointment on Sundays. Come meet the bunnies in person — it's the best way to find your match.
Spend Time With Them
Sit on the ground, let the bunnies approach you, and observe their personalities. Our volunteers can tell you about each bunny's history, temperament, and any special needs.
