My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi there! I'm Coconut, and I’m glad to meet you! Although I may be a bit shy at first, once I get to know you, I can’t resist coming over to check you out. I don't care for touching yet, but that doesn't mean that I don't like attention! 

Loud noises and sudden movements tend to startle me. It could be because I was found outside as a stray bunny and had to fend for myself. I LOVE getting enrichment with food! A cardboard cyl inder filled with hay will keep my attention. And treat puzzles? I’m a pro - j ust put one in front of me, and I'll happily uncover all the yummy raisins hidden inside. 

My daily routine is pretty straightforward and flexible - pellets for breakfast and dinner, timothy hay throughout, and a salad with a slice of banana at the end of the day. Be sure you’re not late with my breakfast pellets, though! I will start rattling my ex-pen to help you remember.

While I may not be too keen on being petted, I do enjoy having your company around. I love being around my humans and having my time to explore. During my run time, you'll find me exploring and investigating everything around me. Make sure my area is bunny proofed in case I decide to do my own redecorating or find some shoes! Oh, and if you happen to be lying down, don't be surprised if I decide to take a stroll on your back. I'm always curious and like to check things out, although you probably won't catch me doing any crazy zoomies or binkies.

When it comes to the litter box, I’m a pro. And brushing? I’m not too high maintenance -  only about once a week keeps me looking sharp, and a little more when I’m shedding. If you ever need to pick me up, I’ll tolerate it without too much of a fuss though having all four feet on the ground is always the best. 

As for my interactions with other animals or children, well, that's still a bit of a mystery. I haven't had the chance to meet any yet, but who knows? I might just surprise you! Foster mom is unsure how I would do with a bonded companion, but it may be worth a try.

So that's me, Coconut, your friendly, treat-loving, curious bunny who’s ready to hop into your heart and home! 

*RRMN does not recommend our rabbits as companion animals for anyone under the age of 10*

RRMN bunnies are all vetted, spayed/neutered, and microchipped. All bunnies are fostered in private homes where they are socialized and ready to become indoor companion house pets. RRMN is a non-profit rescue group operated 100% by volunteers, and 100% of donations/adoption fees go to the direct care of our animals. Due to their very special behavioral needs, we do not advocate for our rescue rabbits to serve as Emotional Support Animals (ESAs).  We are unable to provide any documentation or certification for an ESA.     

If you have any questions or are interested in meeting or adopting this bunny, the first step is to complete an adoption application found on our website:  http://www.rabbitrescueofmn.com.  For the safety of our rescue bunnies, our protocol requires a home-visit before placement.  Therefore, we are unable to facilitate adoptions that exceed an hour and a half of travel time from the Twin Cities area.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster based Rescue and do not have a shelter location. You must have an approved application on file before an official meet-and-greet can occur. However, we regularly hold public events where anyone is welcome to stop by and meet some bunnies! All events can be found under the "Events" tab on our website.

More about this rescue

Rabbit Rescue of MN is a 501(c)3 non-profit rabbit rescue. Our mission is somewhat different than that of many other rescues as we take in sick, abused, neglected, abandoned and unwanted domestic rabbits, as well as rabbits from the public that are no longer wanted. We fundraise in order to get proper vetting and then focus on rehabilitation to ready our rabbits for their forever homes.


We are 100% volunteer-based and have no paid staff. All of our rescue rabbits are cared for in private foster homes where they are properly housed and receive love and socialization. We do not advocate housing our rescue rabbits in pet stores of any kind. Prior to adoption we screen our applicants thoroughly including a background check and a visit to our applicant's home to ensure that our rescue rabbits will be properly housed in a well-ventilated, well-lit and space appropriate area. Our mission includes educating first time rabbit families on the proper housing, exercise, diet and medical care.


Our rescue rabbits are all wellness checked, spayed/neutered and microchipped prior to adoption. We pride ourselves on informing the public that domestic rabbits are “exotic” pets/family members and require very specific care, medical attention and housing, as well as a space in the home where they can be part of the family.
