Rabbits &
Guinea Pigs for Rehoming
Below you will find photos, names
and details of the rabbits we currently have in need of homes. For full details of the adoption process, please
click here.
PLEASE think carefully before
taking on a rabbit as a pet. Rehoming Centres all over the country
are absolutely over-run with unwanted bunnies. We have a massive
waiting list of rabbits to come in to the care of the Branch - we simply
cannot take them all as we do not have the facilities. There is a
tendency for people to think of rabbits as good pets for children, they
are quite simply not. They have a tendency to scratch and bite
(especially if mishandled) and as we all know 'the novelty' soon wears off
and the rabbit is condemned to a life of misery in a hutch at the bottom
of the garden. Rabbits deserve better than this. Of course,
rabbits can make lovely pets for responsible owners, if you are sure that
you can give one of our bunnies the kind of life it deserves then we'd be
very happy to hear from you. Click

animals for adoption are added to this website, please to Email
us - just ask to be added to our mailing list - you can ask to be removed
at any time. We will not, of course, pass your Email address on to
anyone else.
