Meet the Rabbits of The Rabbit Tree

Welcome to The Rabbit Tree! If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to live among a group of quirky, lovable, and sometimes downright bossy bunnies, you’re in the right place. My rabbits each have unique personalities, backstories, and special bonds. Let’s start by introducing a few of them!

Nona – The Reformed Rebel

Nona arrived in 2021 from Berkeley County Humane Society. She was five years old and labeled “too aggressive” for adoption. But I had a feeling she just needed the right care. After her spay, Nona’s true personality emerged—she became a delightful, loving rabbit. She now shares her life with Jeffrey, and their bond is unbreakable.

Jeffrey – The Tiny Survivor

Jeffrey was born here on August 5, 2019, one of 18 babies in his litter. He was the smallest of them all, and I worried he wouldn’t make it. But he proved to be a fighter! I had him neutered at 16 weeks, and now he and Nona are inseparable. They adore each other in a way that’s truly heartwarming.

Charlotte the Smallest Bunny – The Tiny Trouble-Maker

Born on October 5, 2019, Charlotte was originally separated from her sisters because I thought they were picking on her. Turns out, she was the one picking fights! Now, at five years old, she has met her match in Milo. Together, they make quite the power couple.

Milo – The Gentle Giant

Milo is the same age as Charlotte, and their bond is something special. He’s a big, grey bunny, while Charlotte is a smaller Rex with soft white fur, black spots, and helicopter ears—one straight up, the other flopped down. They are bossy, confident, and completely devoted to each other.

This is just a small peek into the world of The Rabbit Tree. Stay tuned for more stories about my rabbits, their antics, and what it’s like to care for such a unique family!

Since i can not do any more “hands on” rescue work because of my brain accident, i have decided to turn our website into a blog of sorts. This is going to be my first entry. I want to spend the first of it introducing the world to the bunnies we have left. I will use this opportunity to inform the public of what i have found that works for my situations.
I still have a lot to do with the website etc. I am still working on things, any suggestions are appreciated

Do Rabbits Like to Cuddle?

The short answer: sometimes!

Some rabbits will happily melt into your arms and let you love on them, while others prefer to keep things on their own terms. Just like people, every rabbit has a unique personality, and you won’t know if you have a cuddler until they let you know!

In general, female rabbits tend to be more independent—especially before they’re spayed. Spaying and neutering not only prevent unwanted litters but also help with behavioral issues, making rabbits more relaxed and social.

Take my Hershey, for example! Many of you have been lucky enough to know her. I was contacted by the Warren County Humane Society because she was considered too aggressive to be placed. After getting her spayed, she became my best friend! But even now, she still nips and lunges most days. That’s just who she is, and I love her for it. She was already 5 or 6 years old when she was spayed, so I think some of her habits were just ingrained.

If you’re thinking about adopting a rabbit, it’s important to understand that not all bunnies will enjoy cuddles. Some will tolerate them, while others will outright fight you over it! Rabbits are little individuals with their own personalities, and the best way to find the right match is to meet them first.

So if you’re looking for a snuggle buddy, be patient and choose wisely—but no matter what, a rabbit will always bring joy into your life in their own special way!

Hershey was snacking and I tried to film her little mouth chewing!! Of course as soon as she caught me filming her, she stopped the cuteness and stared at me like I needed keeping an eye on.

Hello friends! I received a call today from someone who needs a home for a female rabbit. I do not know any details, I’m just wondering if there is any help out there.
As you all know, I am unable to take in any more animals because of my medical emergency last year (ruptured brain aneurysm). I will still help bunnies whenever I can.
The rabbit that needs a home is in Cross Junction VA I’m going to ask for a picture to post. We have no details on the rabbit as far as any immunizations or if she is spayed. The owner of this rabbit has passed away and the grand-daughter is trying to find a home for her before shee has to go back to Arizona
I have included a picture of Austin, he used to be one of our bunnies but he was adopted by the greatest family I ever met. I put this picture here because he is just too stinking cute. I cannot stand how cute he is.
Austin is not up for adoption, but look at how cute he is.

We are not taking in any new surrenders. I can not take care of them since my brain accident. If you call or email, I can try to help you find a way to rehome them. I am so sorry that it has come to this.

🌟 Exciting Changes Coming to The Rabbit Tree! 🌟

Hello, wonderful bunny community!

After a lot of thought, I’ve decided to make some big changes here at The Rabbit Tree. As you all know, I’ve always been passionate about helping bunnies, and while I won’t be taking in any more surrenders at this time, I am dedicated to finding new ways to support our furry friends and their humans.

This transition is all about empowering people to keep their bunnies happy and healthy or find them a loving home when necessary. Our goal is to help you with answers, resources, and advice to ensure that every bunny has the care they deserve.

Stay tuned for updates on the website and feel free to reach out if you have any questions or ideas to share. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of bunnies everywhere! 🐰❤️

Hello, friends of The Rabbit Tree,

This year has been one of immense challenges and change for us. As many of you know, I survived a ruptured brain aneurysm that left me hospitalized and in rehabilitation for six months. During that time, many of our beloved rabbits were relocated to other rescues to ensure they received the care they needed.

After much reflection, I’ve come to the difficult decision to stop taking in surrenders. My health no longer allows me to physically care for the bunnies, which has been heartbreaking to accept. However, The Rabbit Tree will continue to hold its 501(c)(3) status, allowing us to assist rabbits in need in other ways.

To all our incredible supporters, I cannot thank you enough. Your kindness and generosity ensured that the bunnies were cared for during my absence, and your continued support means the world now that I am recovering and without a job to sustain this project.

Helping abandoned, abused, and neglected rabbits has always been my mission. While I feel I’ve fallen short in some ways, I know that together we’ve made a difference in the lives of so many rabbits. For that, I am eternally grateful.

Thank you for standing by me and these wonderful creatures during this difficult time. I hope to find new ways to contribute to this cause as I rebuild my life and regain stability.

With love and gratitude,
Kellie
The Rabbit Tree
Please remember that I couldn’t have done any of this without your continued support. I thank every one of you from the bottom of my heart.

I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to everyone who has shown kindness and support for these precious bunnies. Yesterday, we received some much-needed food, and it feels like a huge weight has been lifted. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart! ♥️♥️

If I could, I would invite every one of you here to shower these sweet babies with kisses, hugs, and smooches—they deserve all the love in the world.

There are moments when the cruelty in this world makes me lose faith in humanity, but then people like you remind me of the goodness that still exists. Your generosity and compassion have filled my heart with hope and gratitude. Thank you for stepping up to help these vulnerable little souls in their time of need.

As I’ve shared before, I’ll be closing my doors as a rescue. This has been a deeply emotional decision, but it’s not sustainable for me anymore, especially since I am unable to work. I do hope to maintain my 501(c)(3) status, so I can continue helping one or two rabbits in the future in a smaller capacity.

For now, I simply want to say thank you for helping me care for these bunnies until I can figure out the next steps. Your kindness means everything.

I’ve added a picture of Scrump and Nelson. Scrump is sporting the awful haircut that I have given the poor thing 😂 I am not a professional groomer. Look at her poor feet 😂

Bunnies are a lot more than most people think.
