We love learning and we love that so many bunny owners do too!

Our free, virtual, 45 minute education course was originally made to help adopters and people new to rabbit care…but more and more folks have been taking it just for fun. And we’re here for it.

Someone recently asked: “Is there a way to take the education course for fun? We have a rabbit we got from a friend. We've had her for 2 1/2 years now. I think we've done well educating ourselves, but I'm open to checking out what you guys provide to owners. Our little ole lady gets the whole house to openly roam 🥰”

YES. YES. A thousand times, yes.

If you’ve got a free roam bun, a million questions, or just love brushing up on rabbit care, then this course is for you.

Whether you're new to bunnies or have been in the fluff game for years, we promise you’ll learn something helpful.

And peep this adorable student…pictured is her, the lucky house roaming bun whose humans just want to be the best they can be. That’s what this is all about.

Hop on in, anytime.

**Meet Maeve & Mozzey – Acrobatics Duo Seeking Forever Stage!**

This 2lb mother-son team doesn’t hop—they *launch.* Living room? Parkour gym. Hallway? Speedway. Maeve and Mozzey are pint-sized, cheek-rub-powered lovebugs who will melt into snuggles the moment you so much as *think* about petting them.

They’re bonded, brilliant, and ready to bring synchronized zoomies, dramatic flops, and heart-melting cuddles to a home near you.

Full disclosure: their litter box skills are a *work in progress.* Think of it less like a mess and more like abstract art—by two tiny, fuzzy Jackson Pollocks. But hey, what’s a masterpiece without a little creative freedom?

Apply now. Your cheeks—and theirs—will thank you.

Meet Orley & Pru: A Love Story in Fluff & Litter

If you’ve been dreaming of a velvety snuggle buddy who thinks you hung the moon, allow us to introduce Orley—a full-on dog disguised as a 4 lb rabbit. This boy is all-in on humans. He lives to be snuggled, kissed, cradled, and fawned over like the lap royalty he knows himself to be. Rescued from the streets by animal services, we estimate he's about 2–3 years old and 100% committed to being your tiny, upright-eared shadow.

His joy is as obvious as it is contagious—the moment you open his apartment door, Orley launches into high-speed binkies like he’s trying to win gold in the Bunny Olympics. He’s the fastest, happiest hopper in the house, and nothing delights him more than showing it off. Once he gets going his bun wife takes to the air too and you can't help but relish in their joy.

Now, Orley does have a little bit of a... gastrointestinal mystery. Despite visits to multiple vets, numerous medications, all the tests, and enough probiotics to qualify as a yogurt commercial, his gut's still doing its own thing. Translation: you’ll be scooping or refreshing his litter box a couple times a week. In return, he offers infinite cuddles, deep eye contact, and the quiet dignity of a rabbit who knows love is messier than we like to admit.

Enter Pru, his beloved bun wife. She came into this world in dramatic fashion—her mama, Padma, gave birth the day she was rescued. Pru was briefly a bottle baby and is now the kind of girl who prefers to observe the humans for a beat before melting like butter in your arms. She's gentle, affectionate, and very attached to her snugglebug husbun. She weighs in at a petite 3 lbs and is all heart.

These two are a bonded pair of soulmates who’ve been adored during their time with us—but it’s time they find a forever home with someone who doesn’t mind the occasional extra litter box chore and is ready to be worshipped by a small, overly affectionate bun.

Are you the lucky human for Team Orley & Pru?

**Marsley & Mosely– The Tiny Tornadoes of Binkies & Zoomies 🎭⚡**

Looking for some quality bun-tertainment? Meet Marsley & Mosely, a 2lb sibling duo of Hotot hilarity who bring the drama, the action, and the *cheek-melting cuteness*. These two are your personal reality show—“Buns of Chaos”—airing daily in your living room.

They *compete* in high-stakes binky-offs.
They *zoom* like tiny wind-up toys.
They *hop over each other* like circus acrobats.
And they *melt* instantly with a cheek rub. That’s the off switch. You’re welcome.

They’re pretty polite buns overall—100% reliable with their urine, and about 98% with their poops (unless other buns are around stirring the drama). They’d thrive in a free-roam, indoor space where they can stretch their little legs and perform to their heart’s content.

If you’re ready to adopt the fastest 1 year old fluffballs in town—and become their favorite cheek-rubber—slide into our messages. Marsley & Mosely are ready for their next act: *Forever Home Edition.*

Meet Arlo & Orla – Twice the Ears, Twice the Love! 🐰❤️🐰

This inseparable lop-eared duo has been bonded since the day they met, and now they’re hopping toward their second birthday—ready to celebrate in a forever home of their own!

Arlo & Orla are small in size but big on charm. Think of them as the cat-like bunnies of your dreams: affectionate when they want to be, snugglers when the mood strikes, and always adorable. They're well-behaved, fantastic with their litterbox, and would thrive in a free-roam, indoor setup where they can stretch, explore, and nap in sunbeams.

If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a pair of gorgeous, well-mannered buns with a bond as strong as their cuteness, reach out! Arlo & Orla can’t wait to meet their humans.

Magda and Murie are ready for their forever home! They were abandoned in a building with 7 other chins, all in tiny inappropriate cages, then collected by animal services where all of them were placed into one cage (with boys!). One of them had been chewing on her fur, she seems to have stopped now that they are spoiled rotton with toys, space, exercise, and kitchen shenanigans.

Now that they have passed pregnancy watch and been cleared by our vet, (believed to be 1-2 yrs young and healthy) they're ready to go to their permanant home.

They love to dust bathe and it's an easy way to get them out of their apartment (offer the bath in the cage, they climb in, pull bath out). They are friendly, inquisitive, accept head pets, approach excitedly for treats and are hilarious bouncing off the walls.

If you believe you can provide the right kind of environment for such a lovely pair, please reach out!

You will need to provide an adequate enclosure with chew toys, safe appropriate fabric, etc., we're happy to guide you!

Oxbow makes (or made) an accessories kit for chinchillas which is sold out most places, but we found some online and of course had to have them for the 4 rescue chins we currently have.

Here's "Kirby" a 4 year old rescue checking his out for the first time.

Kirby is a boy that was clearly loved by his young owner, and we're very grateful they surrendered him to Wasatch Wanderers as they recognized they couldn't afford to support his needs.

Kirby is going to hang with us for a bit as he unfortunately has taken to chewing the fur on his hips, presumably due to boredom.

He's now spoiled rotten and starting to enjoy parcouring around the kitchen. With his numerous toys, a routine, healthy treats and new life, we hope he quickly forgets his fur chewing habbit.

Soon, we'll see if he and another rescued chin (off the street!) want to be besties.

Turn the sound down! The ceramic tub is not level and rocks on his granite slab.

Did you know - you can go into your online Smiths account (or create one though I've had a smiths card (phone #) x20 years and no account) and select True Hearts for Healing Paws Rescue as your "Inspiring donation"? I DIDN'T EITHER!

It won't cost you a penny, but every quarter Smiths will donate a small amount to them. If we ALL do this, it could add up to covering a desexing, which is a HUGE help and took me about 3 minutes.

Tada! You are now helping a non profit rescue who works tirelessly to problem solve and rescue rabbits who have been let down, neglected, abandoned, harmed, rehomed, run over, paralyzed and left for dead to find a second chance at their happily ever after.

It feels good. What are you waiting for?

GREAT POST on cottontail nests in your yard. Bottle fed domestic buns also have a high mortality rate, and this post, though specific to wild cotton tails explains why theirs is so high. So interesting!

Between losing great figureheads in the rescue community, mascots of rabbit education (Lennon the Bunny), our own rescue friends losing their own beloved buns, and rescued buns long-loved needing euthanasia, this song is for you and all the rest of us who were touched by you.
It hurts - hard.

I know there’s no accounting for taste-but this is one of my favorite aborigionals. Hope you like.
