Rabbits for Adoption

Just arrived and looking for a loving home, LIL BUN & PIXIE shown here in the travel cage they came in. Lovely gentle friendly bunnies would make great pets. They lived as house rabbits in Queensland but their owner got a new Neighbour who she thought might dob her in to the government so for their safety she surrendered them to The Rabbit Sanctuary.

We can recommend this pair as very good pet bunnies.

Rabbit Adoption

Thank you for considering adoption. Every rabbit adopted makes a space for us to rescue another abandoned rabbit. 

Adopt a Rabbit from our available rabbits gallery.

Most of our rabbits are young because most rabbits are abandoned before their first year. This happens due to impulse buying of tiny baby rabbits in pet shops. Rabbits make wonderful house pets if care is taken to understand their needs and behaviours. 

We love to assist with that and provide ongoing support. Our bunnies come to you Desexed and vaccinated. We can deliver to most places. If you live near us or are passing through we welcome you to book a visit. 

Black Rabbit for Sale

BINDI is available for adoption to good home. She is a jet black girl rabbit. She is (like all Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary rabbits, Desexed, vaccinated etc). See Prices on our Available Rabbits page.

This gorgeous black lop rabbit girl loves pats and enjoys chatting with you over a cuppa. She is currently at The Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary near Grafton NSW and looking for a loving home. She would be a good friend for your desexed boy pet rabbit or you can adopt her with a desexed male rabbit friend of your choice. Bunnies love to cuddle with a friend when you are not around and at night. They hate being all alone for any time.

Adopted!

Rabbits VIOLET & Peter Rabbit have a loving new home in Casino NSW.
We encourage families to provide basket handling of bunnies as tiny children don't have the strength or dexterity to correctly lift and carry a rabbit. Many rabbits are dropped by little children and suffer severe injuries.

It is best to put bunnies on a table with baskets to sit in and children can brush them, stroke them, cuddle them and kiss them without getting scratched or bitten through poor handling.

Adults should always supervise children with their pet rabbits.

Rabbits

Thinking about buying a rabbit? Looking at rabbits for sale advertisements? We'd ask you to consider adopting a rabbit instead:) Why buy when in pounds and shelters around Australia rabbits are being abandoned and in many cases put to sleep. Opt to adopt!

www.rabbitsanctuary.com.au

Rabbits and Children

If you are thinking of buying a rabbit for childen please consider that we expect the adult to have responsibility for the health and well being of the rabbit.  Children can certainly bring and prepare foods and water for the rabbit but the parent must supervise and check to ensure that the rabbit will be safe, comfortable and have the correct amount of each type of food and plenty of fresh cool, clean water available as well as shade and room to run if outside and good ventilation if left inside.

RABBIT ADOPTED

SQUISH HAS BEEN ADOPTED!!!

SQUISH is a very friendly orange rabbit boy up for adoption to a good home. He is 9 months old.

He arrived from Sydney surrendered by his owners who said their lifestyle had become too busy with work and travel to give him the attention he deserves.  

SQUISH has found a little bunny girl friend at The Rabbit Sanctuary called PANSY who is very timid but loves cuddles. We would like them to be adopted together.  What a gorgeous pair of bunny pets you would have. He gets on very well with other rabbits too so if you want a Desexed male rabbit friend for your girl rabbit he would be great.

They had lived their lives up to coming to The Rabbit Sanctuary in steel cages with artificial light and air conditioning. Now they can be free to smell the air and experience wind and rain and sunlight and friendship with other bunnies and people.

Another very sad Queenslander parts with a bunny she rescued in that state. It is amazing how attached people get to rabbits even when they have had them only a short time.

Linsay and her partner James rescued this beautiful rabbit and cared for her until they found out about The Rabbit Sanctuary and brought her down. Once her vet work is done she will be available for adoption. She is very tame and friendly. Her coat colour is sable with a broken pattern.

Garden Bunnies

Garden Bunnies

What's a Garden Bunny?

A Garden Bunny is one that lives in someone's garden.  The requirements for care and housing are as follows:

The first thing you need for a pair of Garden Bunnies (yes, we recommend two so they have a friend) is a dog proof yard which has good fencing with no holes that a bunny can get through.

The second thing you need is a large weatherproof hutch or kennel under some shelter and shaded from midday and afternoon sun.

Thirdly you need a big bowl of water in a cool place which should be changed daily and a day and night's supply of a good quality rabbit pellet and premium grade hay. The dry foods should be kept in the hutch or kennel out of the weather.

Why have Garden Bunnies?

Having a couple of beautiful pet rabbits living in your garden helps make your private garden a joyous and peaceful place to be.  Some rabbits prefer to interact with their humans from a distance and will learn quickly to come right up for treats and pats too.

Would you like to have your own Garden Bunnies?

If you would like to try out some pet rabbits to live in your garden then contact The Rabbit Sanctuary and we can send you some if you have the correct garden setup as above.  Call or Text Kim on 0416 062 947 for more information. Give an abandoned rabbit or two a home. It will bring you a lot of joy.

We can deliver pet rabbits to most places on the Eastern seaboard including regional towns and Sydney and Melbourne. Dubbo, Grafton, Armidale, Port Macquarie, Taree, Lismore, Central Coast, Northern NSW and more.

Adopt a Rabbit in Grafton NSW

Rabbits in Grafton

Many people think pet shop when they think of baby rabbits for sale. Not everyone in Grafton knows about The Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary where abandoned pet rabbits come in from all forms of abandonment including vets, council pounds, animal shelters, RSPCA, lost and found rabbits etc.

Local Grafton residents are coming to know about The Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary in Rushforth via South Grafton. There are always between 50 and 80 rescued pet rabbits in residence awaiting loving homes.

Most of our rescue rabbits fly to Sydney or Melbourne or other places like Taree, Port Macquarie and other regional towns.

Local adoptions tend to be in Yamba, Maclean, Iluka, Couttes Crossing or Nymboida.

We encourage people to set up playpens in their homes so the bunnies can be part of the family.

To have your rabbit in the house with you the first thing you need is a nice LITTER TRAY.
The photos below show a big litter tray with Rufus and Coco Premium Pet Bedding to soak up liquid covered with edible premium quality lucerne hay. The hay encourages the bunny to sit on his litter tray more and also stops any inclination to dig in the litter. The bedding is the best on the market and can be purchased online. Just Google it:) Put extra edible premium hay on the side for munching. By feeding hay on or above the litter tray your rabbit will spend more time on it and use it more.

Rabbit Adoption

Rabbit Adoption to Good Homes

Many rabbits from The Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary are finding wonderful homes. Our two little bunny sisters, Bib & Bub went off to a good home today to South Grafton to a lovely granny who was adopted them for her grandson. The family had been planning bunnies for a while and had set up a big run with shelter for them in readiness.

SHOULD YOU GET A DESEXED FEMALE FOR YOUR MALE RABBIT?

We often get the question, "Can I buy a Desexed female rabbit to put with my undesexed male rabbit?"

While it would be a great kindness to get him a friend. Are you able to afford to have him Desexed first? 

Most folk aren't aware of the fact that putting a Desexed female in with an undesexed male rabbit would be subjecting her to constant harassment.

 She would become extremely stressed and depressed. The male would also spray sperm over her whole body and head. She would smell horrible to you and to herself:(

RAMBO DWARF LOP FOR ADOPTION

RAMBO is a tame and friendly Dwarf Lop looking for a loving home. He is tame and friendly and loves laying stretched out in the winter sun and munching on pears! He's had a tough life and fought a few battles by the look of his one gorgeous ear that has a tiny old battle wound. He is the kind of bunny that makes you laugh with his antics and wins your heart instantly. His adoption fee is $25. We deliver to most places.

Photo of RAMBO (right) with his friend

He would not be happy in a cage as he is used to running free in the Big Rabbit Run at The Rabbit Sanctuary. He would love a home where he has a female bunny for a friend. He can come with his current friend if you want two bunnies which we think would be a great thing for him and you.
