Buddie cannot decide on whether his ears should go up or down.

Once he gets used to his human, he will hop to greet you and seek affection. He uses the litter box very well and likes to rearrange his hut and blanket.

He loooves head scratches. And shows it by getting nice and relaxed. Will jump on your lap like he is going to give a kiss lol. He loves playing with stacking cups when there are pellets hidden inside When he gets the zoomies he will run through his tunnel super fast.

Buddie is one fortunate rabbit. He was rescued along with several other rabbits after being abandoned on the side of a busy road in Ronkonkoma, Suffolk County.
Some of those rabbits did not survive the traffic.

The adoption fee is $95 / per rabbit and includes all rabbits being spayed/neutered

The Puppy Mill Pipeline Act—which bans the sale of dogs, cats, and rabbits in pet stores across New York State—is officially in effect as of December 15, 2024! 🎉

It’s imperative that we act to ensure the law is being upheld—we must shut down the puppy mill pipeline.

For Anywhere in NY State 🗽
If a pet store is selling dogs, cats, or rabbits:

1) Take pictures of the animals for sale.
2) Note the name & address of the store.
3) File a complaint with the NYS Attorney General: 800-771-7755.
4) Notify VFAR by emailing [email protected] with details

(For how to help enforce this law in New York City, please see our other NYC-specific post!)

Your reports are needed to ensure that this new law works. You can make the difference between life and death for puppies, kittens, bunnies and their parent animals.

Thank you for being diligent and speaking up for animals!

Freya is a gorgeous healthy BLUE EYED young adult who has been with AARR since she was 2 days old. She is the last of the 4 siblings waiting to be adopted. We have no clue why because she is amazing!

Freya is a wonderful girl, independent and fun, who loves people. She will entertain you for hours with her lovely binkes and zoomies.

She was always the brave one out of the 4 siblings, who approached people and came for treats and toys. She's the leader of the pack, and once you realize how awesome she is, she will be your cute little boss too.

Freya is litter trained, very clean, and not picky about food at all... although she loves her dandelion and banana, within limits of course.

Not only is Freya a stunning blue eyed beauty, but she also has a great personality to match her looks. She has done well on speed dates with other rabbits, so she has potential as a bonded partner. We know she will make a family or lucky bachelor bun very happy.

She enjoys exploring and playing with her toys, and hidey house. When she's tuckered out and resting, she enjoys head pets.

Donations needed for emergency spays & neuters!

Late Saturday night (12/7), someone cruelly and illegally dumped several defenseless domestic rabbits in the woods in Islip, Long Island. They were found terrified and huddled together in pairs by nearby residents. Cars fly up and down the dark street they were dumped on, where there are many predators including raccoons, hawks, and foxes.

Thankfully the finders were able to secure 6 rabbits. Our Long Island volunteer Karen and her search team went out to comb through the woods and surrounding areas to make sure there were none left behind. One of the residents was kind enough to hold the rabbits while we scrambled to find medical appointments and rescue placement. All 6 are young….not yet fully grown but old enough to reproduce.

Calls were made to secure placement, as all AARR foster homes are currently bursting at the seams.

Smithtown Animal Shelter in NY will be welcoming 1 of the 6 rabbits.

All About Rabbits Rescue was able to secure appointments for emergency spays, and got lucky to get neuter appts the same day for the boys. Following their surgeries (funded by AARR) transport is set for the 5 to go to Hopalong Hollow Rabbit Rescue in CT, who has graciously agreed to welcome them and handle their aftercare and adoptions.

Donations to cover spays and neuters are appreciated. Donate if you can, and please share this fundraiser. All donations, no matter the amount, help us continue our work helping the abandoned and unwanted.

We had another wonderful adoption event this past Sunday!
It was quite busy with 23 visitors that signed in.
Graham, Evan, and bonded sisters Ailess & Arie left for their forever homes with pre-screened adopters who were ready and completely set up to receive them.
**Please note that we do not do same day adoptions. Our process is very thorough.**

We hold these events regularly at You Should Be Dancing...! Dance Center
It is a nice way to spend some time meeting adoptable cuties and chatting with our volunteers in a beautiful relaxed indoor atmosphere. Keep an eye on our social media for the next one.

Meet Amelia

She is an adorable young full breed New Zealand with lots of energy and love looking for her new forever home.

She is young a bit scared but open to human attention including head pets and gentle kisses which she is receiving. A quiet home would be best at this time to help het warm up. She has lived with cats, so a home with some feline friends could work.

Amelia is a foodie and loves puzzle toys that keeps her mind engaged.

Amelia would thrive in a loving environment where she can play and explore safely, with plenty of space to hop around. A diet rich in fresh hay, leafy greens, and pellets will keep her energetic, happy and healthy.

To adopt sweet Amelia, please reach out to [email protected]

Stevie's rescue began when we found him at the home of a rookie wildlife rehabber who had also taken in domestic rabbits that had two surprise litters. We went there with the intention of assessing the genders of the babies when we stumbled on Stevie, hunched, gasping for air and on death's door i...

Spotlight on Daisy
She is another "long stay" rabbit that has been waiting way too long for no good reason.

Daisy is a sweet gentle 4 year old rabbit with brown agouti coloring. She weighs about 4 lbs., and is a mixed breed, possibly part Dutch with her white stripe. She is friendly and easy to handle. She will climb on you and sit on the couch for bit, preferring to be where the people are so she can observe and join the fun when inclined.

Her favorite pastimes are exploration and climbing up on things to get a better view.. She is athletic and fearless. Let her entertain you with her antics. She will run around your feet, binky and do zoomies. In her previous home she was called the boss rabbit....she is smart, expressive and has opinions. Given the opportunity, she will sleep on the corner of your bed like she owns it. It's hilarious!!

She would make a good free roam rabbit with proper bunnyproofing. Her litter box skills are superior.

Born in December 2020, spayed in October 2021 and very healthy. She was surrendered as half of a bonded female pair, but the girls had a disagreement and unbonded. Speed dating available to see if she could be a good match with a neutered boy, but she would most likely be happier as a spoiled single

She is vaxxed for RHVD2

The adoption fee is $95
Fostered in Bergen County, NJ

Another successful bonding!
Cocoa was adopted from AARR quite some time ago and then more recently his family added Onyx to be his ladyfriend.

Their humans write "I just wanted to give you both an update on Onyx and Cocoa. They are both doing great! They bonded within 2 weeks and are inseparable. They spend their days snuggling, eating and playing. It's such a joy to see them happy and safe and we continue to spoil them with yummy food and treats. We are grateful to All About Rabbits Rescue for introducing us to these wonderful buns."

Congratulations to all!
