Foster

Have you been watching our Social Media and are wondering how you could help a rabbit in need of a home? As a rescue it is our mission to help our rabbits find a forever home. We prefer to have them in a foster home where they can learn proper home etiquette.

We request that fosters:
-Provide indoor housing (cage or playpen can be provided if needed)
-Care for the rabbit daily, including time out of cage/pen, daily pets and cleaning up after rabbit.
-Feed the rabbit daily including hay, pellets, and greens/fresh produce daily
-We request you to use a bowl for water
-Most of our rabbits have started or are litter trained, so a litter box should be available to them.
-Help to promote the rabbit for adoption by taking pictures of your rabbit and posting on, commenting on, and tagging our Facebook page (We do Foster Friday posts weekly)
-Be willing to bring the rabbit to meet and greet events
-Communicate with potential adopters and make the rabbit available for them to meet it.
-Join our foster Facebook group and chat to stay up to date with communications.


If you have considered getting a rabbit as a pet, this is a great way to test the waters before adoption.

If you have rabbit experience, and are willing to foster for us, please fill out the application.
