RabbitPal - rehome a rabbit from a Rabbit Shelter

Cranberry needs your help

2010-08-28T00:27:00.000-07:00

Hello there.
My name is Cranberry and I am a small and white mixed spayed rabbit. As you can probably already tell from my picture, I’m a little bit of Florida white and a little bit of a lion head. The volunteers say that I’m a curious gal, energetic and very eager to explore. I arrived at the shelter as a stray in November of 2009 and I’ve been having a bit of a rough time adjusting to shelter life. I’m am right now on the euthanasia list because the shelter has no more cage space AND because I’m quite sassy. Basically, I’m a bit moody and will sometimes be a sweet angel to the volunteers and sometimes throw everyone that comes my way a little bit of attitude.

The volunteers who have worked with me say that when I’m in a good mood, I enjoy being petted when I know I’m safe and secure in someone’s lap. I have spunk and I want to live. Will someone please find it in their heart to rescue me so that I will not be
euthanized? I have until this weekend, Saturday, August 28, 2010 to find a home. If you can spare space in your home, please email Jennifer at jenlee03@ yahoo .com).
We are in Northern California/Bay Area.

EUTHANASIA scheduled for sweet, healthy beautiful tiny rabbits

2010-03-07T00:29:00.000-08:00

THESE BUNNIES WERE RESCUED FROM EUTHANISATION !!
Anyone out there with a heart and a home? Or is it OK for them to die? Their lives are now in your hands

Look at this BEAUTIFUL chocolate-Siamese boy Roan! I thought he'd be adopted on his looks alone. I don't think he qualifies as a true-dwarf, but he is very small. He is the last of SIX rabbits dumped on December 6. His last friend was adopted 3 weeks ago (now TWO MONTHS AGO) ; he is lonely and becoming frightened and shy....which makes him less visible and less & less likely to be adopted. He doesn't deserve this. Please choose Roan as a loving companion!

Itty-teeny Mickey is a genuine dwarf with the BLUEST eyes you've ever seen. He, too, is the last of a "discard" of 4 bunnies on January 5. He's very small, very sweet, an easy, good cuddle! His cage-companion was just adopted two days ago (now SIX WEEKS AGO) , leaving little Mickey alone and lonely. Help me find this little doll-boy his own special home, PLEASE!

THANK YOU so much for helping these guys. I trust someone out there will have a heart to offer a home.

The rabbits are at the EAST VALLEY SHELTER, 14409 Vanowen, Van Nuys (818) 756-9323 but you can also contact me at:

Lightning needs loving home - Arizona

2010-02-13T07:17:00.000-08:00

A few weeks ago a couple bunnies (Lou & Lighting) were rescued and they were to be put down due to illness. Lou had an eye infection which was cured and Lou was adopted.

Lightning McQueen had the snuffles and he is almost over it and doing great.

I promised Lightning I would find him a good home and plan on following through. He is a good boy, kind, loving, likes to be held, does not chew on stuff, likes other bunnies, and I'm potty training him. Lightning is staying in Presscot

Lightning McQueen needs a home so if anyone knows someone that could give him one please mail mark at: vwmark @ cableone.net (delete space in the e-mail adress).

Charlie is RED LISTED - please save him (USA)

2010-01-27T12:10:00.000-08:00

This is CHARLIE, who is available from the East Valley Shelter,
14409 Vanowen, Van Nuys, CA

Charlie (nr. A1086333) is one of the friendliest, sweetest bunnies you can imagine. He is one of the few rabbits checked in as a "stray" who actually is. He came in skinny and matted. Still, we can tell he was a pet. He LOVES giving kisses, comes to the door of the cage and, when you pet him, wants to climb in your arms so much it's hard to get him back in the cage.

Yet even though he came in Jan. 13, 2010 , one of the most recent, he was immediately RED LISTED and he is in danger of euthanisation at any time.

Please help to get this love of a boy into a GOOD home.

You can either contact the Shelter directly via 888-4LAPET1 or 888-452-7381, FAX 818-756-9110 or phone Dina at 905-210-4599

Bunny Rescue in TN needs your help

2010-01-17T04:06:00.000-08:00

Bunny Rescue in the Nashville, TN area rescued 40 rabbits (in total) from a maggot filled hutch in Dickson. Litters of babies had their arms, legs and ears chewed off because the adult males were never removed.

We've spayed all the females and have rehabbed all back to good health over the past 2 months and now need to place the first 20 since we already had 40 buns in our bun room at the time of the rescue. (we can barely walk in there, and are desperate now)

Underneath just 2 bunnies (the right one is missing it ears as you can clearly see)

We desperately still need temporary foster moms and dads for 17 rabbits.

Please Consider Fostering A Needy Bunny!

Hangorenparadijs (Overijssel, NL) seeks homes

2010-01-02T23:17:00.000-08:00

A local small rabbit shelter called Hangorenparadijs in the Netherlands (to be precisely in Steenwijkerwold - in the province Overijssel) is seeking good homes for their adoptable rabbits. As they recently took in a few rabbits which later turned out to be all pregnant (people forgot to tell the rescue that the boys/girls were not separated) this resulted in a total litter of 11 youngsters (all French lops)

As this is a very small rescue they are now overfull and do need to get some rabbits rehomed to make room for the 11 youngsters. Underneath just 3 randomly chosen pictures of the available rabbits. Do consider adopting a rabbit from this shelter, so they can make room for other rabbits.

De kleinschalige konijnenopvang het Hangorenparadijs in Steenwijkerhold (NL, provincie Overijssel) is naarstig op zoek naar nieuwe baasjes voor een aantal van hun opvangkonijnen. Onlangs werden zij verrast door een geboortegolf van maar liefst 11 konijntjes, omdat opgevangen konijnen onverwachts zwanger bleken te zijn (men had "even vergeten" er bij te vermelden dat de dames/heren bij elkaar hadden gezeten). Om deze kleine donders ruimte te bieden, is men dringend op zoek naar nieuwe baasjes voor de konijnen die thans wel herplaatsbaar zijn.

Hieronder een drietal willekeurige gekozen foto's van beschikbare konijnen.
En eerlijk is eerlijk; het zijn prachtige konijnen waar je best wat voor om mag rijden!

Added rabbit shelters in the UK

2010-01-01T09:09:00.000-08:00

Just updated the list of rabbit shelters in the United Kingdom for the counties F through N.

If you happen to know shelters in those counties which have rabbits up for adoption and are not yet stated here, then please do not hesitate to send us an e-mail with the information.

We hope to add the remaining counties as soon as possible, but as it is all voluntary work done in our spare time, it can take a few more weeks before we have accomplished that.

Flemish Giant seeks home

2009-12-21T11:50:00.000-08:00

I am a parrot rescue that has inadvertently gotten a few bunnies in. We have a Flemish Giant that has been displaced due to the owner being removed from her home. I am going to take her in temporarily until we can find a home, but we need to get this 3 year old spayed.

We do not have the money to do so. The owner is going to give us a little to go toward the surgery, but I doubt she can give much. If anyone can help us out, you can make a gift in our name to the vet directly, Dr. Essig at 304-375-2676 Williamstown Animal Hospital.

Or if you have a place for this Flemish Giant then please contact Sheri from Raven's Haven Exotic Bird Rescue

Mum and her daugther seek home (UK)

2009-12-07T13:26:00.000-08:00

This mum and her daugther are seeking a good and loving home.

Mum is an Agouti - here on the right. Her daugther is now 3/4 months old and as you can see her ears were overgroomed by mum at birth. Mum is very protective of her daughter and therefore they need to be rehomed together.

They are in a shelter already for 6 months and often overlooked.
Who gives them a chance?

Both girls can be found at:

Kirkby Pet Welfare
Kirkby in Ashfield
Nottinghamshire (UK)
Tel: 01623 753883

Please ask for Celia, who is running the shelter, for more information on these two.

Kirkby Pet Welfare has over 80 bunnies in the rescue at the moment as well as guinea pigs, hamsters and mice.
If you are thinking of adopting please, consider a bunny from Kirkby

Magic needs Rescue

2009-12-01T11:54:00.000-08:00

We got a call from a volunteer today who was at the shelter and was told that due to space and that this bunny will be euthanized. We learned that the shelter she is at has an abundance of New Zealand's. Her death was to occur Friday at noon but a temporary stay was granted as we were working on her rescue.

We managed to get Magic into a temporary fosterhome but she still needs urgent rescue, medical care and ofcourse a permanent home.

Magic is a big, gorgeous New Zealand rabbit. She's a bit on the shy side but likes volunteers, being held and attention from people.

Can you please help this sweet girl find a permanent home? We need to get her out of harms way. This rabbit is a large bunny and playful - she needs lots of space, and lots of fun toys to play with. What a dramatic face and her expression says it all, no wonder they call her magic!

Or if you would like to contribute to her funds, which are used for all her medical costs (she needs to be spayed rapidly), please make either a donation via PayPal (see button on the website) or send a check to:

New Look and Feel RabbitPal.com

2009-11-27T11:35:00.000-08:00

Already for a couple of years RabbitPal is present on the internet to help shelters rehome their adoptable rabbits by listing them for free on the website.
However, nowadays there are many many other websites where shelters can list their rabbits. From own experience we can tell that it is a very time consuming task to have all these website updated on a regular basis.

And thus we understand that shelters use those services which have a broader community and tend to generate the most traffic for their cause.

It is therefore that we had to reconsider the effectiveness of RabbitPal and have come to the conclusion that we have to go into another direction. RabbitPal will remain dedicated to rehoming rabbits all over the world and will list as many links as possible which are related to rabbit shelters. We want to become the most extensive linksdatabase with regard to rabbit-related links. As we do this in our spare time it will take some time. So be patient.

Besides that RabbitPal would like to be the place to post rabbit pleas: rabbits who are in desperate need of help (like rabbits in high-kill shelters), rabbits who need immediate rescue, or maybe just transportation is needed or maybe a place to stay for a couple of days before there is a spot available in a rabbit shelters. RabbitPal wants to act as a kind of intermediar between shelters and people who could help out.
