My story

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

This little, happy, bouncy brown-eyed boy J.T. (James Todd) is about 1-1.5 years old and weighs 5 pounds. He spent his 1st year living on someone's outside, open-air second floor balcony, mostly neglected of food and touch, then 'set loose' in an apartment parking lot. He was found 2/1/24 very malnourished while hiding under a car. He has since adjusted to living in a climate-controlled home with doting attention morning and night, lots of nourishment, and toys. He is back to his healthy weight, neutered, vaccinated, and his only anxieties are wondering how long he has to wait until he gets more cuddles and finds his fur-ever home.

J.T. exemplifies how a happy, hoppy bunny acts! Every morning and evening he uses his foster humans like a playground hopping on their lap to smell ears, hair, and higher areas, although like most rabbits, he dislikes being picked up. He loves his pellets and hay and hits the litter box 99% of the time. He likes to hop to higher objects, flop in the early afternoon, and get rubs all over his head and cheeks.

Go meet their pets

Most of our rabbits are in the loving care of foster families, so meetings to view the rabbits can be scheduled by phone or email.
GRR is also found every Sunday of the month at the Petsmart located on Archer Road in Gainesville, FL.

More about this rescue

We are a nonprofit organization accepting into its protection any rabbit that has been mistreated or abandoned. The organization does not deny shelter because of disability or illness. All rabbits, after being nursed into optimum health by knowledgeable volunteers and—when necessary—local vets, are spayed and neutered before being placed up for adoption. GRR volunteers screen all adopting families to insure these rabbits will be placed in a secure and loving home.
Gainesville Rabbit Rescue, Inc. is not a shelter; it is solely reliant upon the efforts of its volunteers and foster homes. We strive to place our rescued rabbits in the loving homes of foster families who see to it that the rabbits are litter box trained, fed and well cared for, with expenses coming more often than not from their own pockets.
Domestic rabbits are less able to save themselves than other companion animals. Classified as both pets and livestock, they are farmed, experimented on, eaten, worn, made into lucky charms; and some are kept as companions. Unfortunately, like other companion animals, they are also discarded by irresponsible owners. Thousands of rabbits are euthanized at animal shelters each year and we work hard to ensure the rabbits in our area do not fall victim to that fate.
