 If you are interested in adding one of our beloved bunnies to your family, you've come to the right place.  We deeply care for our bunnies, they are fed excellent diets, get lots of play time outside and are loved on by us

constantly!  Just because they are cute pets, doesn't necessarily mean they are a good fit for every family. Bunnies require a lot of work and can be quite disastrous. Its our responsibility as breeders to help educate every potential family for the real life (not Instagram) reality of owning a bunny. I always joke that I tend to talk people OUT of adopting a bunny rather than into adopting. I care about each of the babies born here and it matters to me where they live out their lives. This is why we screen every potential family and take precaution to ensure a bunny is a good fit for you. That being said - PLEASE don't hesitate to reach out and every question IS worth asking, always!


God Bless

Adoption

Bunny's Current Care

How do I reserve?

  • We require photos of your bunny's housing at least one week prior to adoption.
  • We might offer suggestions if we determine a change in your bunny's housing needs to be made. This is just to ensure the transition from our home to yours goes smoothly for the new baby.
  • We reserve the right to deny a sale if bunny's housing is inadequate or if adoptee is unwilling to make changes.
  • Although bunnies are cute, they are not best suited pets for young children. Generally, although with exception, we will not sell our bunnies to households with children under the age of 3. This is where I, sadly, have personally witnessed the most turn over with bunnies.
  • All of our bunnies are sold to pet homes only. We do not sell to breeders.
  • We will not sell a boy and girl together. However, we will sell two boys or two girls together. 
  • We make every attempt to determine gender and check multiple times as they age, but we are human and mistakes can be made. If by chance you received the wrong gender, we will take the bunny back and refund you, or you can switch it out for another bunny. You have 24 hours to notify us that the gender is wrong. So please check your babies' gender immediately if you are specific on a gender you want. 
  • You are required to provide a pet carrier for your new bunny at the time of pick up.

Bunny Health

Bunny's Current Care

Bunny's Current Care


  • All of our bunnies are healthy upon leaving our rabbitry. We won't sell a sick or underweight bunny. 
  • If a deposit has been placed and a bunny falls ill, your deposit will be refunded.
  • Upon leaving our care, we inspect noses and bottoms for any sign of illness. As well as monitor their eating to ensure they're thriving. 
  • Upon leaving our care, all babies have been properly and fully weaned and are fully eating on their own.
  • We do not vaccinate our bunnies and we do not recommend it either. Bunnies have very delicate ecosystems and from my experience vaccines have caused more harm than good long term. 
  • We do treat every bunny (as precautionary) for mites and parasites before leaving our care. 
  • The bunny's health is your responsibility once you adopt him/her. 
  • I recommend getting your bunny spayed/neutered when they reach sexual maturity at 6 months. Fixing eliminates all the extra hormones that can cause excess chewing, angst, digging and false pregnancy, spraying, messiness, difficulty with litter training and even "attitude".

Bunny's Current Care

Bunny's Current Care

Bunny's Current Care

Currently here with me.. 

  • Your bunny is fed Timothy Hay 24/7 in abundance. I prefer the brand Oxbow.
  • Your bunny is fed Alfalfa Hay (Oxbow Brand) mixed in with Timothy or given as "treat hay".
  • Your bunny's pellets are Blue Seal - Show Hutch Deluxe 17 feed. 
  • Your bunny gets organic steel cut oats every morning with their food.
  • Your bunny drinks from a water BOWL.
  • Your bunny is using a large cat sized litter pan that is filled with natural pine pelletized bedding for litter. 
  • Your bunny's food bowl is placed INSIDE the litter pan and the hay is hanging over the litter pan, so that all eating is done while baby is IN their liter pan.  This is how we litter train.
  • Your bunny gets outdoor time to play and explore and loves to run around and nibble on grass and leaves.
  • Your bunny isn't eating vegetables alone just yet but has nibbled on moms' veggies and definitely loves them!
  • Your bunny is loved on by me and my children daily! 

Where will I pick up my bunny?

All bunny pick-ups are at Sheffield Park in Oldsmar. This is a safe, open, mutual place to meet.

The day of pick up..

Those first 24-72 hours with your new baby bunny are crucial!

How you go about handling your new bunny from the moment you get them into those first few days play a huge role in how him/her get acclimated to their new environment. Here are some of my tips for the first 72 hours:


  • On the day of pick up, bring a carrier for your bunny to be placed in with some hay to chew on for the entire car ride home.
  • Do not hold the bunny on the car ride home. This does not comfort him/her like you might think, but can actually cause your bunny to become more frightened. Car rides are scary enough in and of itself. 
  • If you have excited children, I understand it's exciting trust me I do, but try to refrain from passing the bunny around and forcibly holding the bunny. 
  • It is best to allow your new bunny to get acclimated to his/her new environment before you start trying to bond. In order for a bunny to bond or give/receive love he must first feel safe. Isn't that the same for us people? So why expect anything different from a baby bunny.
  • Let the bunny come to you, let the bunny see you are a safe, calm person and someone trustworthy.
  • Smell is huge for bunnies, so when they go to a new environment with all completely new smells everywhere it can be overwhelming. Allowing them the space to create a sense of security for themselves is imperative for the foundation of your bunny's ability to open up. 
  • "Bum-rushing" a new baby bunny because of your own excitement is always going to lead to a bunny who is more reserved and less likely to open up. Or will take longer for him/her to open up.
  • I suggest getting down on their level and petting them rather pick them up. 
  • You can offer some oats out of your hands to get them used to your scent and your touch. 
  • I suggest "reading" your bunny's countenance to gauge their needs. Are they binkying and doing zoomies within an hour of getting home? Maybe then you can be more interactive with them. Or are they a little bit scared and not sure what to do? Maybe give them some space to comfort themselves. 
  • Keep in mind they are little babies and all have their own unique personalities. They are not a toy for your child to be entertained. They are a prey animal and may respond accordingly.
  • One thing I know with bunnies is this- the more you try and force them to respond or act as you think they should, the more they will distance themselves from you. 


Enjoy your new baby bunny I pray both of your lives together are filled with lots of love!

Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. John 15:13
