Introducing Moonbeam, who came in as a stray to our local shelter. As she didn’t do well in the shelter she found her way into a VRRA foster home. She’s estimated between one and two years old and is a white and black lionhead cross.
Here’s a few words by her foster mom describing her personality:
Moonbeam is a sweet, quiet little soul. She likes to explore her immediate surroundings and settles down for a nap when the spirit moves. She enjoys a snuggle on your chest while being gently petted. It will take a bit of time to get her used to a new environment and household activities but she is used to respectful dogs and other rabbits nearby. She has a dainty diet and is selective in choices both in greens and pellets but has been vet checked and she is healthy if a bit slim.
Moonbeam is easy to handle and prefers free roaming but settles well in her bedroom (pen) at night.
Moonbeam is looking for a gentle home where she can blossom even further. If you can give her that home, please apply today!
On June 20 it was extremely rainy and Pinky was found hiding underneath the back stairs of a home in Kitsilano. The kind rescuers were able to gently guide Pinky into their home for her safety.
Once inside, the rescuers contacted the City shelter to ask if they would take in the rabbit as they were unable to keep her long term. They were then directed to VRRA who were able to help with Pinky’s care!
The rescuers fostered Pinky through VRRA for 2 months and got to know her very well. She was only about 4 or 5 months old when rescued and is a lively, friendly young bunny! She loves her fresh carrots and greens for treats. She ALWAYS uses her litter box and enjoys helping to top it up with fresh hay.
Pinky is curious and adventurous, and she will try to chew on cords/wires if they are in reach. She can jump out of a 3 feet pen, so is best to be supervised in a taller pen or contained in a crate with a top when alone. She loooves to be pet but is not very fond of being picked up for long periods of time. She will keep you forever entertained with her countless bunny zoomies!
Pinky is spayed and ready for adoption – if you would like to give her a new home, please apply today!
Madison is a slim and attractive little rabbit who resembles a wild cottontail. She was an abandoned rabbit on Madison Avenue in Burnaby. She had been living wild for a few months and the condo building manager was becoming annoyed that she was eating their plants. Volunteers picked her up after a bit of a chase!
Madison has shown herself to be a friendly but bit timid girl. She is very good with her litter box and not a chewy rabbit. Madison will be a good companion bunny and house pet. She may like to have a bunny friend. If you are interested in adopting Madison please apply soon!
After being found on Main Street, dumped, scared and alone, at just a few months old, little Tiger Lily was caught and brought to the VRRA by a kind person. She was named for her beautiful “tiger stripes” that make her quite a unique and gorgeous little harlequin bunny!
Whether you’re looking for entertaining binkies or lots of sweet snuggle time, Tiger Lily could be the perfect bunny for you! She loves to play, jump and run, but will happily flop down next to you for a nice, long rest. She enjoys being pet, getting forehead kisses, and will even groom you to say thank you or to get your attention. She also likes having enrichment activities such as toys or hay mats to play with. Tiger Lily has excellent litterbox skills, a silly and adorable personality, and is learning to tolerate being held. She would love nothing more than to be your best friend for life!
She will be happiest as a free range rabbit. She will jump out of a 3 foot pen so needs something taller to be contained.
Tiger Lily will be ready for adoption once she is spayed. If you would like to adopt her, please apply today!
Snap was born Feb 8 at a local shelter before joining VRRA with her mom and twin siblings.
Snap is a beautiful white and gold rabbit with Dutch markings. She’s a strong girl and would do well in a rabbit savvy home or with someone who wants to introduce her into rabbit agility. She’s an elegant rabbit.
Snap is clean, curious and active. She can be quite vocal, hopefully hormones dying down. As she is young she is quite a busy bee.
Want to meet this beauty and experience her unique personality? Please fill in an adoption application form today!
Bellissama, or Belle for short, is a beautiful, big bunny. She can be quite opinionated and very interesting! She loves attention and will sit for ages to be petted. Belle doesn’t like to be confined and makes all sorts of demands to be released. She will do best as a free range bunny. She is excellent with her litter box and an accomplished jumper. She did well at rabbit agility and also easily jumped out of a 3 foot pen.
Belle is very possessive of her space. She’s quite vocal about not liking her things messed with and will behave aggressively. It’s best to clean her area while she is not in it. Bellissama is a lovely, dark agouti with tall ears. She will be an amusing and personable rabbit to live with. She is probably best in a rabbit experienced home.
She’s in foster in Surrey but can come to Vancouver for meetings. If you would like to adopt Belle, please apply today!
Meet our dear little Maisey, who was found as a stray fending for herself. She found herself in a local shelter where she gave birth to a litter of babies. A shelter was no place for a mama rabbit and her babies, so she was welcomed into the Vancouver rabbit rescue family. Not only did she raise her own but was surrogate mom to another baby.
Maisey has completed her maternal duties and is now looking for a forever home of her own.
She’s a shy, quiet, gentle rabbit and would prefer a home that matches her personality. Children may be overwhelming for her, but she probably would like a rabbit friend. She was in a foster home with cats, a dog and other rabbits. We are estimating her to be between one and two years old.
She’s clean, has her favourite toys and will gently take a treat from you.
Please give this little rabbit a chance of a stable home after her difficult start in life. Apply today!
Meet these adorable devoted sisters, Twilight & Stream!
These two girls date of birth is April 4, 2022. They came into VRRA July 20, 2022 with their mother and siblings. Twilight (black female) has a fun outgoing personality – she loves to come up to you and play for treats. She will nip/nudge is she feel you aren’t paying enough attention to her. Stream (grey/silver female) can be shy but likes to snuggle with her sister. Stream had to have one eye removed due to EC. She is completely recovered and healthy now. Stream will come up to you if you are sitting down, for head pets.
They are free roaming in their current home – a loving foster home with two children. They love to do zoomies and binkies in the evenings and run to the kids rooms to say goodnight. These two are confident and will run up and down stairs. They enjoy their chew toys and are very well behaved. They have very good litter skills. We would love for this pair to find their furever home! If you would like to adopt them, please apply today!
This darling little girl is shy, but brave. Once she’s comfortable, she’ll come up and boop you with her nose. It’s her way of saying hello. Frances absolutely loves to be hand fed. It’s so cute to see her little tail twitch with excitement!
While Frances likes company, she prefers to be the one to initiate any petting. She’s comfortable with gentle nose pets, however she prefers not to be picked up or have full body pets.
Frances enjoys exploring her space. She recently moved things around so she could have a better route for her zoomies! Frances loves games and puzzles when there’s a reward. She’s an expert with her stacking cups and her treat dispenser ball!
No worries with the litter box, as Frances is very clean and tidy. She definitely prefers privacy while doing her business, so I had to move the hay bin to make a bit of a partition.
Frances does startle at loud noises, so she may not do well in a home with young children, or dogs (loud barking). If you would like to adopt Frances, please apply today!
Bailey was found as a stray in Chilliwack, summer of 2024. Her age can only be estimated as she was an adult when she came to us. The vets think she’s in the 2 to 3 years age group.
Bailey is a bit of a diva – beautiful, with some spirit. Can be protective of her space. She’s extremely clean with her litterbox and loves toys. She’s a real foodie and demands her food first.
Bailey is looking for a home where she has space, freedom and attention. No young children please, and she would probably do better in a more experienced home.
Bailey is a lovely rabbit and will truly blossom in a home rather than a shelter. Are you that home? If so, please apply today!
