You will save a life
When you adopt a rabbit you don’t just save one, you also save a new rabbit. But
adopting, you are opening a space for another rabbit to be saved. Large shelters
don’t have the space for rabbits and will either euthanize them, or not accept any
new intakes. There are a lot of domestic rabbits whose owners have released
them to the outdoors because they had no other option. Domestic rabbits often
don’t survive outdoors.
You’ll get a healthy pet
All rabbits at Hoppy Hearts have a physical exam done by a veterinarian, they
are spayed and neutered, and we know their temperaments and will make sure
that we match you up with the rabbit that matches your lifestyle and experience.
You’ll save money
Adopting is a bargin! Hoppy Hearts has built strong relationships with our
veterinarians and they offer us special rates to keep them all hoppy and healthy!
All the rabbits are spayed/neutered and vet checked prior to adoption. The
adoption fee covers their medical expenses, and I bet your buttons that you can’t
find a regular veterinary clinic to match those numbers!
You won’t be supporting breeders or pet stores
Breeders and pet stores put “profit” before the welfare of any animal. Often times
the rabbits are very sick. They don’t receive proper socialization or exercise, and
it shows. A lot of people see that cute bunny and buy one on impulse not
realizing their needs, lifespan or behaviors. A lot of those rabbits end up being rehomed or surrendered.
Compete an Adoption Application Form
All applications will be considered. The best application gets to move forward,
not the first. Further questions may be asked to clarify your responses on the
application. We will contact your veterinary clinic for a quick reference.
Meet and Greet
Depending on the rabbit, location and situation... some meet and greets will
be held in my home, others will be done at the applicants home (if done at
your home, that would cover the home check portion of this adoption
process). This is your opportunity to meet the rabbit you have applied for to
ensure that it is the right fit.
Home Check
Home checks are done to ensure suitable living conditions for the rabbit and a
chance for you and me to talk further about the rabbit you are applying for. If
you have a rabbit already and are trying to find them a suitable companion,
this is a great opportunity for them to meet.
Adoption Agreement and Fee
Congratulations! You are the right fit for the rabbit(s) you have applied for.
This agreement is to ensure that the best care is given to the rabbit for the
rest of their lives. The fee is only accepted in cash form and is nonnegotiable. This fee covers the cost of spay or neuter.

Amy is a very sweet little girl! She has a wonderful and gentle personality. Amy came to HHRR
when her owner felt that they could no longer meet her needs. She is very curious and loves to
explore her surroundings. She cannot wait to get out of her cage to hop around the living room
and enjoy the company of others! Amy is very good with cats and dogs, but can be territorial
around other rabbits. She seems to be okay with neutered males when provided a large area to
interact.
Amy will be spayed prior to adoption.

Details:
Luna is as cute as a button! Still a young rabbit, Luna is learning about manners and working on
not feeling territorial about her cage. It takes Luna a longer time before she trusts someone due
to her previous living conditions and care. With a gentle hand, patience and lots of love... this little
sweetie comes around in no time! Luna was surrendered to HHRR when her previous owner
didn't feel like they had the time to properly care for her anymore.
Luna will not be placed in a home with children due to her size and her cage aggression.

Due to no fault of her own, Lily is back in the care of HHRR. Lily is undergoing a weight loss
program with her new foster mommy. Lily can be a bit cage aggressive. However, after being
spayed and once trust is built between her and her caretaker(s), her aggression will diminish.
Lily will be spayed prior to adoption.

Details:
Remmi is a timid little guy. He does have some trust issues and is quite cage aggressive at times.
But, with lots of love and patience Remmi will make a nice addition to a caring rabbit experienced
family. Here at HHRR Remmi continues to improve and soon enough this behavior will be far
behind him.
Although Remmi is just too cute and is adored by many, we find that placing him in a
home with somebody whom has experience handling rabbits with behavioural issues is in
his best interest.

Details:
Marie is a curious little girl, and always on the lookout for more toys to play with. She enjoys
throwing things around and exploring new hiding places. Marie is a chubby little monkey, but she
seems more than happy to play the pounds away. She can be territorial and often feels the need
to protect herself. Marie needs someone who understands the language of rabbits in order to
appreciate her.
Marie will be spayed prior to adoption. Marie will not be placed in a home with children due
to aggression tendencies.

Sassy is reserved with people, but is slowly gaining trust and confidence. Her past life was far
from ideal for any domestic rabbit, and it has left her with a strong and bold personality. Despite
that, she is warming up and has even started reaching out for a pet. Sassy loves a gentle
brushing and is very inquisitive and loves to explore her surroundings.
Age: 7 months
Sex: Female
Breed: New Zealand Cross

been through, she is a gentle and loving soul. She loves to have her face massaged and enjoys
snuggling. She enjoys getting out for hop time and exploring her surroundings. She has a
beautiful, soft coat and seems to enjoy a gentle brushing as well. Still young, Lyla has a bit more
growing to do (will reach 8-10lbs).

up to you in no time at all!

Ying and Yang are two of five rabbits pulled from a shelter in Quebec. They've experienced a lot
on their short lives and they are fairly reserved. They are nervous of people, but with patience
and love they would both make wonderful companions. Rabbits do best in pairs, and they don't
require any more work than a single rabbit. Do you have the space in your heart for these two
cutie pies?
Ying and Yang are a bonded pair and must be adopted together.

Nicky was one of the five rabbits we pulled from a Quebec shelter. She was abandoned at the
shelter because her owner had allergies. Nicky is a young, active rabbit when hopping free and is
also very social. At her foster home in Quebec, she lived with cats and dogs with no problems.
She loves to sleep on top of a high box with a soft blanket. She likes to be pet. She is litter
trained, sweet and really adorable!

Irina was one of the five rabbits we pulled from a shelter in Quebec. Irina and her rabbit friends
were abandoned at the shelter because their owners had too many pets. Irina is a dominant
rabbit who will need someone who is not afraid of her attitude. She will impose herself and can
bite. Irina can't handle being caged in well. She needs some space to feel at ease. We see some
progress concerning her temper since she arrived but still needs someone who understands the
language of rabbits in order to appreciate her.
