application to adopt a pair of rabbits
Don't go any further until you've read through our adoption policy!
There, you'll understand our philosophy about rabbit adoptions, and if you're new to rabbits, you'll learn quite a bit about what life with rabbits is like. Caring for rabbits requires no less responsibility than owning a dog or cat. Rabbits are not starter pets -- they are forever pets -- and a serious time and financial commitment.​ But with that responsibility and commitment also comes the joy of spending time with these gentle, curious, and loving friends. That is why we do the work that we do here at RMHRR, and why we want to ensure all of our rabbits go to the best possible homes.​
Before you complete the application below, please note that due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the RHDV2 epidemic among rabbits, we have made some changes to our adoption process:
-
If you have a single rabbit needing a mate, your rabbit must be vaccinated against RHDV2 a minimum of one week before coming to be paired.
-
We will not be delivering the rabbits to your home. You will be required to come pick them up. We ask that you pick up pairs within a week of choosing them, singles being bonded to a new mate within three days of being notified that they are ready to go home.

Notice: Paired Rabbit Adoptions Temporarily on Hold
We’re taking a short pause on applications for pairs rabbit adoptions. We have adopted out almost all of our pairs at this time and remaining pairs already have applications. The high number of pairs adoptions in the last few months and the fact most intakes are singles and not pairs has resulted in this unusual situation. We are currently bonding internal rabbits but this does take time.

If you have questions before submitting an application, email adoptions@rmhrr.org.
