My story

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

See below for this rabbit's description. To apply for this rabbit, go to www.larabbits.org and fill out an online application form: http://larabbits.org/adoption-application/ All our rabbits are spayed/neutered, microchipped, vaccinated for RHDV2 and litter box trained!
UPDATE: Marmalade has grown up into an amazing rabbit! He gives his caretaker kisses. What a sweet orange bunlet he has turned out to be.

History: Marmalade was born in a back yard, one of many bunnies in a litter. The irresponsible humans who owned his parents then gave him and his brother, unaltered and unvaccinated, to a neighbor. They did not provide proper information on rabbit care and did not explain that unaltered males will fight as they mature. Sure enough, Marmalade and his brother started fighting at about 2 months of age. When the neighbor found out that rabbits cost money and require exotic veterinary care, she did the right thing and surrendered him to an animal shelter, where he was neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. After being adopted from the shelter to live with an older ladybun who has since passed away, he's now looking for a new home, preferably with another rabbit, if not right away, down the line. He's had trouble accepting a new bunny friend after everything he's been through.

Their adoption process

1.

Submit Application

https://larabbits.org/adoption-application/

2.

Interview

We match people with rabbits, rabbits with rabbits.

3.

Home Check

We call this a "home safety visit" because safety for rabbits can get complex---we want it to be safe but we are not intrusive.

4.

Meet the Pet

During the RHDV2 and COVID19 epidemic and pandemic, we are limiting contact with our rabbits to people who are seriously interested.

5.

Sign Adoption Contract

We have an adoption contract that acts as a safety net for the rabbit: if something happens to you, bunny comes back to us.

6.

Pay Fee

We have adoption fees ranging from $90-150 depending on our prior investment in the rabbit. Pairs are $150-250.

Additional adoption info

Our rabbit adoption fee includes the neuter, vaccination and micro chip (we do not adopt out unaltered rabbits under any circumstances). Rabbits must live in an indoor, cage-free environment. Exercise pens that are at least 4' x 4' with additional run time in a rabbit-proofed room are acceptable. Note: We do not adopt out of the Greater Los Angeles area unless the adopter has previously adopted from us.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We are adopting out rabbits by appointment only. Location of meeting place will be provided after potential adopters and organization have agreed on meeting specific rabbits.

Our weekly mobile adoption venue is ON HOLD for now
due to COVID-19.

All rabbits will have to be vaccinated for RHDV2 to meet there in future.
