Ways to help SaveABunny
Our mission is to give every rabbit we rescue the chance to be treated with the individual care they deserve.ย
But we canโt do this important work without your support!
NEW RESCUE! Meet โVolthareโ (pronounced โVolt Hareโ). โก๐
Heโs one lucky bunny.
Volthare was found as a severely matted, filthy stray. Our first hope was that another rescue would be able to take him, simply because we are already full with rescue requests, and a long-haired rabbit like Volthare requires extensive grooming and specialized care.
Unfortunately, no placement was available, and he was facing euthanasia at a Bay Area shelterโnot because he was sick or aggressive, but because he had been neglected and his coat had become so severely matted. That just wasnโt fair.
As luck would have it, another bunny was adopted that very day, opening a space for Volthare to come to safety with us.
He was so matted it was difficult to tell where his head ended and his tail began. As I carefully groomed his entire body, he sat patiently through it all, almost as though he understood that someone was finally treating him with kindness and gentle care.
Our veterinarian estimates heโs only about a year old. Heโs already neutered, and once he receives his vaccination, heโll be ready for adoption into a home that understands the special grooming needs of long-haired rabbits.
Volthare is smart, funny, quirky, and absolutely engaging.
Please adopt him before I fall completely in love with him. ~Marcyโค๏ธ #โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ #bunnyofinstagram #bunnylovers #bunnycare #rabbitstagram #rabbitsofinstagram #cutebunnies #rescue #rabbits #rescuerabbitsofig #bay #area #inn #bayareabunniesofinstagram
I had a fuzzy lop and just clipped his fur like a poodle every other month or so. He looked adorable. Little Mo (Short for Monster):
So fluffy!!!!
Volthare you are a handsome bun bun!! ๐๐ฐ
Thank you for saving Volthare and providing all the medical care that he needs.
Oh my goodness, how long did it take to cut his fur and groom him? Thank you for taking him in. He’s one lucky bun now! ๐
He is my type of Bunny!
Oh he is STUNNING ๐ They need daily grooming. I used to have to groom my double mained angora cross twice a day.
Long hair
Snuggle bunnies Vespa (tan girl) and her younger boyfriend Tricycle (spotted boy). They love each other very much and are quite the binky machines at play. They're fixed, vaccinated and must be adopted together.
What a love story! Tricycle is a tripod. Vespa ๏ฟผ has a โkickstandโ leg. We took them in to help another rescue group. ๏ฟผ They told us that Tricycle had jumped over an xpen into Vespaโs area and it was love at first sight!
where are you located and what breeds are they. also how much cost wise
Vespa and Tricycle you two are adorable. I pray you find your forever home soon!! ๐๐ฐ
Just adorable together!

Brook (tan girl) receives loving attention #LateBloomerClub style — squashed by Greyjoy and tail brushed by Zamboni.
how is grayjoy doing
Zamboni hit the cocoa puff dispenser button.
Was wondering how many of the original Late Bloomer Alums we have left I know when I started Greyjoy was one of them, I do miss the queen and her donut bed rules
LOL! ZamBunny was trying to scratch his own ear or face, but the reflex doesn't match up with the physicality. Hence, the butt-care for Brook. Cutest/funniest/Bunniest thing I've seen in a while.
Aww that is so cute. I love the tan and white trying to scratch it's self but scratching the butt of the tan instead
Omg I thought greyjoy was a stuffed animal. That's adorable!!!! ๐ฅฐ
Hmmm… i had bed bunnies… hmm… winlets knew jello belly bunnies… hmm… not sure how to feed
Love the LBC Club, so adorable! ๐พโค๏ธ๐ฐ
Sweet Zamboni. We love the Late Bloomer club
I would give anything to have treatment like this ๐ฅนโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ so lucky
Absolutely adorable
Love the LBC and these three are my favourites.
Omg how cute! โบ๏ธ♥๏ธ♥๏ธ♥๏ธ

Beautiful bunny
Now where did I put that one piece of hay I was saving for later? ~Zamboni
#zambonizunday #LateBloomerClub
It's good to know my grumpy old boy isn't the only compulsive sorter. Lol
I don't get what they're doing. They can't see the hay, just feel it in their mouth and yet they seem to reject or eat hay at total random. I have three and they all do it.
Adorable bunny ๐ฐ

I love you Zamboni
Cukiság vagy drágaság.
Zamboni is workin' that hay!
Beautiful
Thank you for helping the bunnies!

Annabelle is a very friendly and social Californian girl, spayed and vaccinated and ready to adopt through SaveABunny (Mill Valley, CA). She is a little over a year old. She and her foster mom wrote this:
"Hi I'm Annabelle and Iโm a big sweetheart and youโll get a LOT of bunny (almost 10 lbs) if you bring me home. I consider myself a professional splooter, expert jumper, and full-time explorer. Iโm also very smart, thank you for noticing. I have impeccable litter box manners and keep things tidyโฆ well, mostly tidy. Iโm social, curious, and canโt wait to take over your living room. Iโll be reviewing all applications so get yours in soon!"
