These two are just the cutest bunnies you will ever see. Winston is the little Polish Dwarf and he just loves his girl Naomi and she loves him. they are about 5 years old and were supposed to be with us for only a couple of months while their human moved and sad to say she just could not take them back.

Timmy is a sweet bunny who was bonded with his lovely sister, Ollie. Ollie has passed and since he is an older bunny, we feel it’s best he stays in an familiar environment where he feels safe and secure. He is well loved and will live out his days doted on by our director.
Hi everyone, I’m Ruby and I was in bad shape when I was taken to a non rabbit vet in St. Augustine with some serious teeth issues. My family told her to euthanize me as they didn’t want to take me anywhere else. Good thing for me they called GRR. I’m about 9 years old and I need to have some vet visits for the rest of my life to make sure my remaining teeth are ok as well as a bit of a trim on one or two of them.

Karl is a male New Zealand and his girl Molly is a Florida White. They are about 18 months now. They were found loose in Orange Park but are now safe and sound in rescue. They love each other very much and it shows. Karl is the friendlier of the two. Molly tends to be a bit shy until she gets to know you. But both are sweet buns that are great litter box users.
Casanova, his name says it all. This boy was dropped off at the Alachua County Animal Shelter and we have no idea why. He is sweet, loving, and easy to pick up and hold for short periods of time. This rabbit loves attention and is one of the friendliest bunnies to ever come through our rescue.
Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with cancer this last March. He will be staying with a loving one-on-one foster family until it is his time to pass.
Rest in Peace, Sweet Pea.
Thank you for blessing our lives.

Ripley came to us three years ago with his sister, Newt. We got the call on Sunday morning from a young couple that had bought them from PetSupermarket. They tried to return them stating that one needed vet care from a neck injury as a result from fighting with his sister. After hearing this, we expected severe headtilt and not a ‘broken neck’ as they thought and we rushed to meet them. We were sickened to see this poor little three month old bundle of matted fur, sitting in pine shavings. We took them to the vet at once and were relieved we were not too late to save his life. The first thing we said after the vet visit was, believe it or not, he is going to live. This was how his name became Ripley.
Newt was adopted fast as she was a beautiful little lop ear but poor Ripley was left behind because of his health issues. His headtilt required trips to the vet and we were never sure how long he would last.
He is a very happy little boy and he receives lots of love from us. We can’t help but wonder what we could have done with tests and new therapy that might heal him completely or give him a chance at a normal life. However, the cost of those therapies is more than a non-profit can afford. So Ripley still waits for a miracle, and so do we.
Rest in Peace, Sweet Little One. Thank you for blessing our lives.

In January 2011 a rabbit was brought in to the rescue. Her name was Cocoa. We decided to rename her Scoobee. She is a permanent foster because she was fed a very unhealthy diet causing her to become obese. Due to her being obese and a bit older (about seven years old), she could not be spayed until she lost some weight. So instead of placing her at risk of surgery, we decided to offer her a Forever Home here with us. Scoobee not only has healthy food, a clean cage, toys and dogs she loves to chase, she also has our love and our promise to always take care of her.
RIP, sweet Scoobee.

Blondie suffers from an unusual and incurable genetic illness called “cowpoop syndrome”. She requires medication administered twice daily for the rest of her life. At the first sign of change (which would not necessarily usually be considered a red flag to most healthy buns), Blondie must be placed on a rigorous regimen of meds 3 times a day, along with critical care and subcutaneous fluids. She has required hospital stays up to 3 weeks long in the past to bring her back from near death. Blondie leads a healthy and happy life as long as she is diligently treated. She romps and plays, loves her treats and attention from her humans.
Rest in Peace, Sweet Blondie. Thank you for blessing our lives.
