Our adoption procedure includes a phone interview, home visit, and any necessary education of potential adopters.

We need your time as a volunteer for loving and socializing bunnies, cleaning cages, cleaning litter boxes, feeding and watering, taking bunnies to vet appointments, helping with adoption events, and fundraising. 

We can only rescue rabbits if there are indoor-only foster spaces for them. Help us save the lives of rabbits by giving them a place to go after being rescued.

WHO WE ARE

Long Island Rabbit Rescue Group is an all-volunteer organization based on Long Island, New York. Our mission is to rescue abused, neglected or abandoned rabbits; have them medically treated and spayed/neutered; and place them in loving, indoor homes. We educate the public on the special care and health needs of domestic rabbits, and are sustained by your donations.

2021 Revised!

Check out the revised Rabbit Food Pyramid. *Note we now recommend adult rabbits be served no more than 1 cup fresh leafy green vegetables per day.

ADOPTING A FRIEND

Our adoption procedure includes a phone interview, home visit, and any necessary education of potential adopters. There is an adoption fee to help defray the cost of veterinary care and spay/neuter of the bunnies we find homes for. For more information about adoptions, please email us.

MEETING THE RABBITS

We don’t have a physical shelter building. The rabbits are fostered in our homes. If you are interested in any particular bunny (or bunnies), we will make arrangements for you to meet them once you are approved to adopt. If you would like a companion for a bunny you already have, we will arrange for several “meetings” and a bonding session to ensure your bunny will be happy with his/her new mate!
