OLDEST RABBIT

This is our oldest resident MARSHMALLOW who is close to 10 years old now.  She is a Netherland Dwarf breed of rabbit. 

She was a QLD magician's rabbit.  She grew too old for the magic act so her owner surrendered her to The Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary.  In Queensland the magicians are allowed up to two rabbits. Because she grew too old for the show the magician wanted to replace her with a younger rabbit which she did by buying one from a pet shop over the QLD border in Tweed Heads. 

We figured that MARSHMALLOW had done enough to service people with all her life spent entertaining children and adults so we provided her a permanent residence status at the Rabbit Sanctuary. 

She spends her days mostly sleeping and lazing about.  Other rabbits show great respect for her as if they know she is old and needs her peace and quiet to live out her days.

Rabbit Enclosure


This is a photo of a playpen on the lawn at The Rabbit Sanctuary. Archie and Jorden are two male bunnies up for adoption to loving homes where they will be part of the household and valued family members. The rabbit playpen can be set up in the family area of your home and carried outside on the lawn when you have time to supervise. The little RabbitHouse by HoundHouse makes a wonderful hidey hole.

Solution for Rabbits Digging

Problems with your rabbits digging? Nothing that rocks can't fix!

Our Rabbit Roustabout Evan is placing rocks around the boundary fences in the Big Rabbit Runs today. Good work to get done before the heat of the day sets in. Bunnies love watching their slaves at work. Peacock watches on too.
Big rocks stop rabbits digging near fences

See the deep rabbit tunnel in construction. Rocks will fill that and protect the fence line. Rabbits are allowed to dig at The Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary but we fill them in regularly and they get the fun of starting a brand new rabbit hole.
