Rabbits

   Rabbits are an athletic, curious herbivores that can make great housepets, and many owners let them run around the house like a dog.  However, they are frequently misunderstood and often need time and patience to become friendly in new situations.  Rabbits don't typically like to be picked up and prefer to be met on their level.  Although spaying and neutering tends to help them be calmer and use a litterbox, they can sometimes be destructive and messy.
  Many rabbits tend to enjoy a same-species companion, but can be picky about who they bond with.

Hall and Oates were rescued strays, like many of Lost Woods' rabbits.  They are playful and friendly buns and are usually happy to be petted, especially Hall.  They always use the litter box for #1 but can be a little messy with their cocoa puffs.

Henry and Black Beauty were owner relnquished due to housing changes, but they are some friendly and well-loved buns.  they are bonded and must be adopted together.

1. Fill out an Adoption Application
                                                               Even if you're not sure yet which animal is best for you, this                                                               opens up the conversation and allows us to help you prepare for your new pet.

Our Adoption Process

2. Decide which animal you want to adopt
                                                     You might meet them at an event or make an appointment to                                                             come to the Sanctuary to meet your potential new forever friend.

3. Set up the enclosure, and send us a picture!
                                                     It is important to have everything ready when you bring the new pet home so they everyone is comfortable and happy.

4. Pay the adoption fee, sign the adoption contract
                                                     This is the official exchange of "ownership" of the pet from us to                                                           you. Adoption fees help offset the cost of the pre-adoption health care that each animal receives.

5. Take home your new best friend!
                                                                  Now that the paperwork is done, you can enjoy your new pet and                                                                    feel good about supporting a nonprofit animal rescue instead of a                                                                    pet store.  Now that you have adopted a pet, it makes room for                                   another animal who needs help. Thank you!
