Breadbox Farm Rabbit Rescue

We believe that as breeders, it is our responsibility to use our vast rabbit knowledge to also help the rabbits in need in our community. We know that every living creature deserves compassion and gentle care. It is our mission to find these rabbits their place in the world, spread awareness about proper rabbit care, and to help others make good decisions for the rabbits in their lives.

The following rabbits are looking for a loving family. They have either been dropped off directly to us, rescued by one of our local shelters, or have been raised at a rabbitry but have special needs. They will need attentive care and patience as they grow to trust you and learn to love again.

Each rabbit is carefully monitored for health concerns and aggressive behaviors before being offered for adoption, but we cannot guarantee the temperaments of these rabbits like we can our own. We believe that there is a family out there for every rabbit, regardless of their hard past, different ability levels, or trust issues.

When you are ready to adopt a pet, please fill out an Adoption Application Form and Robin or Lisa will contact you if approved to set up an appointment time. To reserve a rabbit you will be required to pay in full through an electronic form of payment.

PICK UP and TRANSPORT OPTIONS

LOCAL PICK UP is available once you are approved for adoption. We have many clients who drive in from the surrounding states. In many instances you may take home your bunny the day you meet them (check for a “ready to go home” date on bunnies under 8 weeks old.)

PRIVATE TRANSPORT and DELIVERY is available through third party transporters. A quick google search will bring up many options. You will be responsible for choosing a transporter you trust and securing your own transportation. We are happy to arrange pick up times with them. We trust Mabel with LC Animal Transport, her number is 347-819-4372. You can reach out to her for timing and transport rates.

DOMESTIC AIRLINE TRANSPORT is also possible through American PetEmbark. You can expect to pay approximately $550-750 total depending on how far the pet is going and miscellaneous fees associated with your pet flying, such as a proper crate for the flight ($60-80) and a required health certificate ($70-90) within 10 days of departure. We have sent many rabbits as far as California and Washington and feel strongly that American Airlines is a safe and trustworthy option for receiving your new pet.

Blue Eyed Baby Lionheads | Dancer, Prancer, Vixen - All Girls | $400 each

  • Breed: 100% Lionhead

    DOB: 8/7/24

    Size: about 2 lbs, but still growing

    Color: All white, with blue eyes

    Special Notes: Long Haired! So pretty!

  • These babies were an accidental litter, but have been extremely well cared for. They trust humans and are very friendly, although do not love being picked up. They will however jump right into your lap if you sit on the ground near them. We will continue to build trust around lifting them off the ground this while they grow here.

    Each one is just darling and they are stunningly beautiful. The sapphire blue eyes are enchanting. These little ones are kind of the perfect rescue situation for a few families out there. They were raised well, are still babies, and are healthy.

    They would do well in a variety of homes and can go home singly or as pairs or a group.

  • These babies have not been fixed! If you would like to home rabbits together, fixing them is the best option, so consider the costs of surgeries.

 
 

Sophie (on the left) | $200

  • Breed: Mixed

    Sex: Female

    DOB: 6/21/2024

    Size: Full grown size - 3 lbs

    Color Variety: Chinchilla

  • During a bunny cuddle event, Serafina, one of our Netherland Dwarfs, and Winter, a rehabilitated bad boy rescue bun with a dark and stormy past, found their way together. And yea, I mean together. One month later their new family was expanded into these three silver babes. Sophie is the last one available.

    We have raised them as we do all Breadbox bunnies with constant touch and affection and they have been involved in all of our Cuddle Events so they are very used to people and kids.

    Sophie has a reserved personality and needs someone that will be patient with her, understanding she needs to build trust over time. She would do well in a home with an adult or an older child that will be patient and able to continue working with her to earn her trust.

  • These babies are not fixed, so plan to get them spayed or neutered if you choose to home them with other rabbits.

Aria | Chestnut Female | $200

  • Breed: Mixed

    DOB: 5/27/2024

    Size: Full grown size- slightly smaller than a house cat.

    Colors: Chestnut

  • Aria is one of the surprise babies of Annie who is one of our rescues. At some point one of our males must have found their way to Annie at one of our events. If we were to guess, we think it would be Winter. He would always go over and visit her by her hutch and was in love with her. Hmmmm!

    We have raised her at Breadbox and she has been part of our cuddle bunny events. She is a very sweet baby. She has the silkiest fur. We think she will grow to be slightly smaller than a housecat. Take advantage of this miracle litter as it is very rare we have rescue babies at Breadbox.

  • Aria is not fixed, so plan to get her spayed at 6 months if you choose to home her with other rabbits.

Annie | Mixed Breed | Chestnut Female | $200

  • Breed: Mixed

    Variety: Chestnut

    Age: Approximately 3 years

    Size: About the Size of a House Cat

  • Annie is a gentle giant, she is generally very calm and socializes well with people. She has some strong opinions on other rabbits but was a great mother and raised two beautiful boys. We think she could do well in a variety of environments with a bit of patience and trail and error!

 
 

Haley | Self Chocolate Female | $200

  • Breed: Netherland Dwarf

    DOB: 2/15/2023

    Size: Smaller than a house cat

    Colors: Self Chocolate

  • Haley is a beautiful chocolate bunny with a spicy side. When her previous family got a dog, Haley became aggressive and has been struggling to rebuild trust with humans. She does love affection and being pet. She was showing minor cage aggression when she arrived, but that has now been resolved.

    Haley needs a home where she can be the center of attention without dogs and small children. We do still think she would get along with another rabbit, but have not tried bonding her here yet.

    Since Haley was raised here, we have high hopes for her building trust with a special person over time.

  • Haley is not fixed, so plan to get her spayed if you choose to home her with other rabbits.

 
 

Lilac | Mixed Breed Female | $200

  • Breed: Mixed Breed

    Sex: female (not spayed)

    Age: unknown (over 1 1/2 years )

    Full Grown Size: Smaller than a housecat

  • Lilac is a beautiful black mixed breed rabbit that is a little smaller than a housecat. She is very outgoing and her foster home describes her as being similar to a dog. She loves to lick people and especially prefers men.

    Lilac is highly intelligent. She needs space to run around and loves toys for enrichment. She gets a little scared when being picked up, but does like being held once she is in your arms.

  • Lilac is not fixed so consider the cost of a Spay if you choose to home her with other rabbits.

 
 

Winter | Himalayan Male | $200

  • Breed: Himalayan

    Sex: male (not neutered)

    Age: Under 3 years

    Full Grown Size:Smaller than a house cat

  • Winter came to us emaciated and dirty coming from an unsafe situation. He was so dirty we couldn’t even tell he was white. Surprisingly, he was still friendly and will come right up to you for food and pets once you have won his trust.

    After a couple months at Breadbox, he has transformed! He is now a healthy weight with a white coat and shading on his ears and feet. Winter has ruby colored eyes and is a little smaller than a house cat.

    We have learned that he is confident and determined, and quite the escape artist. But he is loyal to a fault! He won’t ever leave you. Once he escapes his pen, he happily hops through our gardens munching away the lambs ear plants.

    Winter would do really well as a garden pet as he is most comfortable outside and would love to have space to run around.

  • Winter is not fixed so consider the cost of a neuter if you choose to home him with other rabbits.

*RESERVED For Candi* Jay | Orange Male | Netherland Dwarf-$200

  • Breed: Netherland Dwarf

    DOB: 3/18/2024

    Size:

    Color: Orange

  • Jay is a sweet, sociable boy who loves attention. He comes up to the front of the cage and loves to get pets when you feed him. There are days when he gets a little too excited and bites when we go to feed him. He likes to be held and is a people person and has a great sense of humor.

    He came to us when he was 8 weeks old from our partner rabbitry called Thornfield’s Heritage Farm. Jay has taken part in our bunny cuddle events. He would do well in a home with confident rabbit owners.

  • Jay is not fixed, so plan to get him neutered if you choose to home him with other rabbits.

Ways to Help our Breadbox Rescue Program

  1. Share. Spread the word about our available rabbits on social media. Find us @breadboxfarm. This helps more than you think!

  2. Donate your time. We are always happy to include new volunteers in cleaning cages, socializing shy rabbits, and feeding and watering the herd. Email us if you’d like to donate your time.

  3. Build. More cages and rabbit runs mean we can save more rabbits in a healthy, clean, and enriching environment! We currently need individuals willing to donate their time and carpentry skills building hutches and runs.

  4. Donate. The Breadbox Rescue Program is sustained on donations, community support, and A LOT of hard work and emotional moments behind the scenes. We try to keep a reserve of $400-600 at all times in our rescue fund for possible emergency health care costs. And we are currently saving to build 6 more hutches with a large attached play yard. 100% of your financial donation goes directly to providing for rescue rabbits. Our breeding program and all business related to it is a separate entity.
