Meet Blank!

Another rabbit safely rescued.

Thanks to a caring community member, he recognized little Blank didn't belong outside and took quick action. He was able to gently pick him up and bring him indoors, where our rescue volunteer in the area responded promptly to assess and transport back to Snickerdoodles'.

He is indeed a Dwarf bun & is even smaller than he looks in these photos, and may be older than he appears. Just a tiny little man with a sweet disposition.

Now safe in foster care, Blank will soon receive a full wellness exam and neuter before beginning his journey to find a loving, house rabbit knowledgeable forever home.

His super foster says:

“Blank likes his face and eyes rubbed. He laid down on my bed and I got him to enjoy the eye rubs while laying on my bed. He has learned what petting is, perhaps”.

If you'd like to support Blank on his adventure to health and full potential:
(For just his neuter it's ~$400. that doesn't include his pre-well check)

Overnight Oats has been waiting over 6 months (that's 185 days!) in foster care for his forever family.

Oats is the happiest little construction worker you’ll ever see on four paws…As you may recall, he was abandoned outside and at risk of being placed out into the woods where he wouldn't have survived.

Our field rescue coordinator went out late at night to meet with a compassionate community member that helped with his rescue & to transport him back for intake and care.

We've since gotten him neutered, vetted and litter box trained. (He's a champion at using the toilet!)

His foster has been incredible - putting in so much work to keep his space tidy, but Overnight Oats knows what he likes, and he’ll quickly re-arrange things to fit his personal blueprint.

(We think he secretly works in construction - moving furniture, reorganizing accessories, making sure everything is just so).

Did we mention that he binkies across his Foster's couch like he's on a trampoline??

He'd make a wonderful companion, and we provide free education & support to help with the bonding process if your bun is looking for a friend.

All that’s missing is the family who will see what a treasure he is and give him the loving forever home he deserves.

Alumni Update!

Our little alumni bread bun, Pita, is thoroughly enjoying her time with her forever family and bonded companion, Raisin.

Can we talk about how SWEET they look together?!

When introducing bunnies, it's important that both are spayed & neutered, and to start in a neutral space where neither bun feels territorial.

One method can be to use the bathtub for short bonding dates - providing a safe, neutral area and easily supervised for intervening when needed.

Pita’s family put in the time, patience and dedication to help these two buns get to know each other and communication with our team , and we think the buns would agree that it's been successful!

Her family says:

“They free roam in the area we usually hang out in the evening to watch TV and they just cuddle up with each other! 🥹”

Cheers to more adventures together & a lifelong bond!

Kirby, welcome to Snickerdoodles' 🩷

Here's some late night shenanigans for you. This little lady was abandoned in someone's yard, left to navigate a world of danger.

Including cats nearby…sure, she may have wanted to inhale them and turn herself into a cat, Kirby style, but that would've been a very short, hazardous fight.

Fortunately, a compassionate individual intervened, who recognized that domestic bunnies don't belong outside.

Kirby shared a special moment of trust and she was able to scoop her right up.

Our rescue team responded quickly to coordinate and transported her back to our rescue foster placement for initial intake.

Upon assessment, we discovered a distressing situation: numerous nails were torn, blistered over, or otherwise damaged, while others had overgrown and begun to curl.

This is terribly painful for rabbits. Our professional bun nail trimmer cleaned her right up, providing comfort & much needed relief.

Kirby handled it all so well like the ultimate mini bun hero she is. Next on her journey: a wellness check and work up with our vet & a spay, before she’s ready for a loving, house rabbit knowledgeable forever home.

WOW. Just… WOW. Our 2nd Annual Pet Memorial Golf Outing blew us away – together, we raised $3,630 for the bunnies at Snickerdoodles’! That’s TWO TIMES what we raised last year, and every single dollar is going directly into their care.

Think about what that means: a dozen spay/neuters, urgent medical treatment for abandoned bunnies, and the safety net that allows us to say “yes” when another rabbit needs rescue. YOU made that possible.

Thank you to:

-the players & teams that showed up ready & early to golf and support the buns.

-our fantastic volunteer crew that welcomed our guests, set up, educated by sharing our mission, brought caffeine to our early risers, our golf cart brothers that made sure folks were fueled and had beverages & snacks - every volunteer that supported.

-our golf outing mastermind and overlord, number cruncher, bunny loving champion and coordinator volunteer extraordinaire: the one & only TERRANCE - who made sure this event soared.

-the incredible MayFair Country Club for opening their doors, supporting our cause, and helping us host this awesome event.

-our generous Sponsors who also prove how powerful community can be, stepping up to help and celebrate animals and families in need.

and let's not forget… these unbelievable bunny TROPHIES. 🏆 Congrats to the award winners! Plus, our special celebrity guest, Avidity, made an appearance.

This outing wasn’t just about golf: it's about honoring beloved animal companions and creating change for vulnerable animals. Every donation, every hour volunteered, every swing on the course carried that spirit of remembrance forward.

It’s a direct line from your generosity to their survival and well-being, and we are deeply grateful to every single person who made this possible.

Update on our baby bun that was rescued from being abandoned outside after her companion passed away and her family no longer wanted her —

She now has a name: Midnight Sodapop!

Thanks to a generous donor, so far she has received young rabbit pellets, hay enrichment mats, a foraging snuffle pad, and stacking cups.

Midnight Sodapop has been busy hopping from one toy to the next, proving that this little soda pop really does fizz with joy when she has enrichment to explore.

For baby bunnies, enrichment isn’t just play - it’s vital for their growth and wellbeing. Activities like foraging, chewing, and exploring keep them mentally sharp, physically active, and help prevent destructive behaviors.

These donations allow us to provide exactly that, creating a safe and stimulating environment for developing buns like Midnight Sodapop.

Every item donated goes straight into action, and your support has a direct impact on their daily lives.

Welcome to Snickerdoodles', little Charlie ✨

Another baby bunny rescued outside this week.

A kind community member first spotted him hopping around the neighborhood - named after the area he's been roaming on “Charles Drive” - and kept a close eye as stray cats roamed nearby, putting him in real danger.

Thankfully, one of our incredible volunteers saw the report, jumped into action and immediately outreached, and used her bunny-wrangling skills to safely capture Charlie before any harm could come to him.

Charlie is incredibly small and young, with a matted bottom and signs he'd been outside for a while.

Now, he’s safe with us at the rescue and in the warmth & care of his Foster's home where he’ll receive a full veterinary check, and when he’s old enough, he’ll be neutered and vaccinated before being ready to find his forever family.

This little poof-ball will never have to wonder where he belongs. No bunny should be left alone outside.

If you’d like to help cover the cost of his future neuter and vetting, donations of any size make the biggest difference.

Everyone please give Hank Hill and his new family a big WOO-HOO!

As you may recall - Hank was abandoned outside, found covered in ticks & fleas, and healing from a painful leg fracture. Since coming into our rescue, Hank has received the medical treatment he needed, was neutered, and finally experienced the safety and care every rabbit deserves

We are celebrating his adoption into an incredible house bun knowledgeable home where he gets to free roam, enjoy endless enrichment activities, cardboard hidey houses, and a family that truly understands his needs.

He even has a little birdie friend named Banjo! 🎶 Maybe, once Hank gets more settled in, we’ll see a sweet friendship blossom between the two. For now, Hank is soaking up all the peace, comfort, and love.

A huge thank you to his new family for opening their hearts and home. Every adoption reminds us why we do this work - another happy step in their journey, another bunny safe and cherished forever.

She's here!

See our previous post about this little bunny abandoned outside, no longer wanted by her family shortly after her bonded companion just died.

She is a tiny baby girl; we estimate just about 3-4 months young.

We performed our initial intake exam, noting that her back nails were a bit long, and provided gentle grooming and nail trim all around.

She is incredibly chill and did so well with us handling her during the exam, calmly squishing her nose into us as a tiny gesture that feels like a “thank you” and trust is already building.

At this age, proper diet is crucial. At the rescue, she's eating unlimited Alfalfa Hay like a pro, which supports development and provides essential nutrients for a growing baby bun.

She'll be receiving a full work up with our veterinarian, vaccinated, & spayed once of age.

We could use more Alfalfa and Timothy hay, and young rabbit pellets.

If you'd like to help us make sure this baby thrives - you can purchase an item for her here:

Welcome to Snickerdoodles', little one 🖤

Now… what can we name her?

17/09/2025

A new friend is on their way to Snickerdoodles’…

A community member reached out to one of our volunteers yesterday late evening after their neighbor literally dumped a bunny in their yard because:

“Her partner died the other day and we just don’t want her, so we just put her outside”.

Can you imagine the trauma and grief that this rabbit is experiencing? Not only did she lose her bonded companion, but she was then discarded and left outside like she meant nothing.

Rabbits form deep attachments. Losing a partner is already devastating. To be abandoned on top of that. Absolutely cruel. How confused and panicked this bunny must be.

And the area she was tossed into? Cats, goats, and other animals - not to mention the dangers of traffic, exposure to parasites and disease, and no access to safe food or water. A domesticated rabbit simply cannot survive those conditions.

Thankfully, one of our incredible volunteers immediately stepped in, providing her a safe place overnight. She is now on her way to our rescue for intake.

A huge thank you to the compassionate neighbor who made the report to coordinate safety, and to our dedicated volunteer who made sure she wasn’t left alone in such a vulnerable moment.

We’ll share more updates once she’s settled in with us.

Keep this little one in your thoughts.

Foster bunny Agave is one lucky gal.

Her foster knows her inside and out, and when he noticed behaviors that weren't like her usual self - he knew something wasn't right.

Agave was tooth grinding loudly, laying stretched out on her tummy, and hiding away in her hidey house.

Even though she was eating and pooping normally, these subtle changes can be big red flags in rabbits, and can often be signs of pain & discomfort.

Rabbits can naturally hide their illness and distress, so having an attentive foster or caregiver like hers who knows their bunny’s quirks are often a first line of defense in catching health concerns early.

We scheduled her an urgent appointment, and her foster even transported her there and sat with her through the exam. Our vet discovered the cause - it was indeed her teeth!

She has some unusual dental development. Likely born without one of her teeth, another growing out of place, and others have overgrown. In such young rabbits like Agave, early dental issues like this can sometimes point to genetic factors.

The vet trimmed her teeth and Agave is now taking vitamin supplements while continuing to munch on her hay like a champ. Her foster is monitoring her teeth as she develops and taking photo documentation every few weeks to track growth.

Her foster even drew up a quick illustration noting a visual of one of the areas.

If you ever notice your bun grinding their teeth, stretching out on their tummy, hiding more than usual and just seeming off.. those little signs can mean a lot. Take your bun to a rabbit-savvy exotic vet!

Agave's vet visit and dental care was unexpected, but needed to ensure she continues to thrive with health and proper treatment.

Can you please help us cover her total bill of $104.03?

Thank you for an amazing Tailgate Pawty!

We had such a wonderful time yesterday celebrating bunnies, football, and community. Hank was the MVP of the day - he got plenty of “awws,” gentle cuddles, and melted right into people’s arms like a sweet little ice cream cone. Several visitors were close to tears just feeling the warmth and affection he brings.

A big thank you to those who came by to make a monetary donation - that will go directly toward the next spay/neuter. We also received bags of alfalfa hay for our babies!

While Hank soaked up the spot light and now has pending applications, our other adoptables, Avidity and Overnight Oats, also got some sweet interactions and smiles. Though, they’re still waiting for their forever homes and don’t have any pending applications. Check out their bio cards in the photos!
