About us
Wellington Rabbit Rescue is a registered, not for profit charity that takes on abused, neglected, sick, injured, abandoned, and unwanted rabbits. We are 100% volunteer run.
While rabbits are in our care they receive any veterinary treatment they may require. They are housed in large enclosures so they can exhibit natural rabbit behaviour, and are fed a high quality diet.
Once the rabbits are healthy and ready for adoption they are desexed & vaccinated with filavac.
We inspect any potential homes. We require the rabbits to be housed in a large area where they can run and jump. We also encourage new owners to include enrichment toys. Our minimum standard is an area of 2 metres by 2 metres with at least 1.5 metres in height. This area is in addition to a warm dry house of at least 60x60cm.
We do not send rabbits home on their own as they are social creatures. If the potential new family has an existing rabbit then we help mix/bond before the adoption can be processed.
We do not advise same-sex pairings, as these are often volatile bonds that result in fighting.
Any rabbits that cannot be rehomed will remain in our care. We only resort to euthanasia in extreme cases such as very ill, or severely injured rabbits. In this case we will have them humanely euthanized by our vet to prevent further suffering.

It's best to get 2 bunnies, not 1, if you don't spend a lot of time at home. They are very social animals.Georgie K. replied:Please don't impulse buy rabbits, do some research first. And if you really do want one adopt from SPCA or Wellington rabbit rescue, they need homes and have already been desexed.
