Houston Rabbit Resource (2025)

21/04/2025

We just welcomed five tiny, 5-week-old baby bunnies into our care through an emergency intake. These babies, and their mom, were dumped outside due to misinformation about rabbit care, but thankfully, our incredible rabbit wranglers were able to safely catch five of the babies. Their mom and one sibling are still out there, and we’re doing everything we can to bring the whole family to safety.

This time of year always brings a heartbreaking trend: we've already been flooded with emails and messages about bunnies being abandoned, and we know even more are coming in the next few weeks. It's the unfortunate aftermath of Easter, but we’re here to meet it with compassion and action.

If you’ve ever thought about fostering, now is a wonderful time to start! We’ll provide everything you need to get going, just bring the love. Fill out our foster application and we’ll reach out with next steps.

Not able to foster right now? You can still make a huge impact by checking out our wishlist. Your support helps our foster bunnies grow up healthy, happy, and ready for forever homes.

Together, we can turn these stories of abandonment into hopeful new beginnings.

Bobo was found as a stray and came to us in need of some extra TLC. He had severely overgrown teeth (you can see in the photo just how uncomfortable that must’ve been) and an ear infection that likely made things even more painful.

Thankfully, he’s now on medication and has had his teeth trimmed. He’s already feeling so much better and starting to enjoy the comfort and care he deserves. 💛

Thank you to Emily B. for suggesting the name Bobo through our Name-a-Bun form—we think it suits him perfectly!

Bobo’s story is a reminder that rabbits have specific needs, and sometimes those needs aren’t widely known. Dental health, diet, and regular vet care are all really important parts of keeping bunnies happy and healthy.

And as we come out of Easter season, we always like to share a gentle reminder: Easter is no fun for a real bun. While bunny-themed gifts and decorations are everywhere this time of year, real rabbits require a long-term commitment. If you’re ever curious about what that looks like, we’re always happy to share resources and answer questions!

[Arthur update] His foster tells us he is eating his veggies like a champ, and he's perfect at his litter box. He's taking things day by day, but overall he's a happy bunny enjoying being loved on.

🧸✨ Our foster bunnies need a little hoppy enrichment! ✨🐰

While we always encourage homemade toys (toilet paper rolls, cardboard castles, and other crafty creations!), we also love being able to treat our foster buns to a special toy or two—just like any other spoiled bunny would get. 💛

Right now, our toy stash is running low, and our foster bunnies could really use some new goodies to keep them curious, happy, and entertained while they wait for their forever homes. 🐇💕

If you’d like to help, check out our wishlist! Even one toy can bring a lot of joy to a bunny in foster care.
🛒 Houstonrabbitresource.org/donate

Already have some new or gently-used toys you’d like to donate? Message us! We’d love to coordinate a drop-off or pick-up.

Thank you for helping us keep our foster bunnies living their best (and most playful) lives!

✨Forever Home Friday: Honeybun’s Happily Ever After✨

Formerly known as Landon, this sweet bun now goes by Honeybun and he’s living his very best life with his new mom, Ayda 💛

When Ayda’s daughter moved out and took her bunny with her, the house felt a little too quiet. She missed the daily joy of having a bun around and the special bond she had seen between her daughter and her rabbit. So she decided it was time to find a bunny of her own to love, care for, and spoil. Honeybun turned out to be the perfect match!

From what we’ve heard, Honeybun is thriving in his new home. He’s a little social butterfly who always runs up for pets and even grooms hands in return 🥹💕 He’s also got a silly side. He loves to photobomb and get up close and personal whenever someone tries to take his picture 😆

His family says:

“I’d advise any rabbit owner to really spoil and love their buns. They deserve as much time, space, and pets as you can offer them.”

We couldn’t agree more 🥰 Congrats to Honeybun and Ayda on finding each other. Here’s to a lifetime of nose boops, zoomies, and cuddles!

👑King Arthur Update

We recently received the biopsy results for the mass our sweet Arthur has been carrying. While it wasn’t the news we were hoping for, it confirmed our biggest concern: Arthur is facing cancer, and it appears to have already spread.

With this diagnosis, Arthur will now be one of our beloved hospice bunnies and the first to hold that special place in our care. From this point forward, his days will be filled with comfort, gentle care, and all the love and treats he could ever want. He is surrounded by people who absolutely adore him, and we are dedicated to making every moment as peaceful and joyful as possible.

When the time comes for him to say goodbye, we will be right by his side. He will be held, comforted, and helped to cross over gently, wrapped in the love he has gotten to know.

Please keep our brave little knight in your thoughts. 💛

If you have any messages you'd like us to convey to him feel free to drop them below and we will make sure they make their way to him ❤️

[GRAPHIC PIC WARNING]
King Arthur was found abandoned outside, trying to survive in a world that domestic rabbits simply aren't built for. When he came into our care, it was clear he had been neglected for some time. He’s severely malnourished, underweight, and in rough shape. Even so, he remains gentle and trusting.

One thing was immediately obvious during intake: a large mass that was hard to miss. Thanks to Dr. Morales and the incredible team at Cypress Lakes Animal Hospital, King Arthur was able to receive emergency surgery right away. The mass, which contained both of his testicles, is suspected to be cancerous. We are currently waiting on biopsy results to learn more.

Right now, Arthur is hanging in there. He’s resting, healing, and slowly being reintroduced to proper nutrition. His road to recovery won’t be easy, but he is safe now and surrounded by people who care deeply for him.

We are so thankful to Dr. Morales and everyone at Cypress Lakes Animal Hospital for stepping in with such urgency and compassion. Their expert care gave King Arthur the chance he needed.

We’ll continue sharing updates as his journey unfolds. We also hope Arthur’s story helps raise awareness about the importance of spaying and neutering. It’s not just about preventing litters — it can also protect rabbits from serious health risks later in life. If you ever need help or have questions about rabbit care, we are always here.

💜 Welcome to your new kingdom, King Arthur.

☁️ Welcome to Cloud 9! ☁️

This fluffy little guy floated into our care recently, and while his name sounds like a dream, poor Cloud 9 was living anything but. As a Jersey Wooly, Cloud 9 has gorgeous wool-like fur that requires regular grooming, much more than your average bunny. Unfortunately, his previous owner became overwhelmed by the upkeep and surrendered him to a shelter.

In a busy shelter, Cloud 9 was just one of hundreds of animals needing help, and his special grooming needs were easy to overlook. Thankfully, we were able to transfer him into our care, where he could finally get the focused attention and specialized care.

When he arrived, his fur was severely matted. The mats had turned into a lil helmet under the floof causing him discomfort. After a much-needed grooming session (and a seriously adorable haircut), he’s finally feeling like himself again and is now cozy and content in his foster home.

A little reminder: Fluffy buns like Cloud 9 are high maintenance. Regular brushing, grooming, and the occasional haircut are a must to keep them happy and healthy. If you’re enchanted by these wooly wonders, it’s important to understand the care commitment they require.

💈 Don’t forget, our monthly Bunny Spa is a great way to help your rabbit stay clean, comfortable, and well-groomed. Nail trims, brushing, and expert tips are always available to help you care for your bun, especially those with special coats like Cloud 9.

Cloud 9 is now available for adoption, but he’s looking for someone who understands his grooming needs and is ready to keep him looking and feeling his best. ✂️❤️

For now, this sweet boy is truly living up to his name, finally floating on Cloud 9. ☁️🐇

Meet Penelope, a brave little bun with quite the rescue story! She was found abandoned at Hermann Park, but thanks to a kind family, she’s now safe and starting her new journey in a loving foster home. 💕

Since she’s new to us, we’re still getting to know her, but we can already tell she’s a special girl. As she settles in, we’ll be sharing updates on her personality and favorite things—so stay tuned!

For now, Penelope is enjoying soft blankets, tasty hay, and the warmth of a safe home. Let’s give this sweet bun some love in the comments! 🥕💖

Our foster bunnies, Nick and Cameron, had a very special weekend! Their foster mom’s mother-in-law absolutely loves bunnies, but since she hasn’t been feeling well, she couldn’t come meet them, so the bunnies went to meet her instead! 💕

Word quickly spread, and soon the whole family wanted to meet these adorable buns. Nick and Cameron soaked up all the love and attention, proving once again that bunnies bring joy wherever they go. 🐰✨

Nick and Cameron are still waiting to be neutered before becoming adoptable, but if you're looking to bring in a pair of sweeet boys into your family these two are it 🥰
