This exciting campaign is backed by the RWAF and aims to raise awareness of the sad plight of the thousands of pet rabbits bought as presents at Easter and then abandoned months if not weeks later.
Rabbit Rescue
www.happyhoppers.org.uk
A friendly and informative site for rabbit owners and rescuers everywhere. We share a vision of a better quality of life & care for the domestic rabbit.
The RWF is an educational organisation; we don't rescue or re-home rabbits. Sadly we do get a lot of enquiries in this area so have put together some guidelines on finding good homes for unwanted rabbits.
There are over 33,000 rabbits in rabbit rescue centres all over the country. If you are looking for a pet rabbit to brighten your life or as a companion to an existing rabbit, try the following Rescue Centres:
www.rabbitrehome.org.uk
Rabbit Rehome UK allows rescue centres and individuals to enter details of
rabbits in need of new homes. Rabbit lovers can then search for rabbits to
adopt. We are not organising 'adoptions online' you will need to contact the
rescue centre to find out about their homing policy. This site is not intended
for breeders to advertise deliberately breed litters or for breeders to find
'stock'. The rabbits here are looking for loving homes as pets.
The Mayhew Animal Home
The Mayhew Animal Home has a vision of a world where
all companion animals are wanted. We aim to set the standards in animal welfare.
