WMRR only adopts out rabbits that have been spayed or neutered. We routinely vaccinate our rabbits for RHDV2; if you decide to adopt a rabbit who is between their initial and booster, we will ask that you bring the bunny back for their booster day. Sometimes, foster bunnies might not yet be fixed, but we would work with the foster families to have that done while in their care, along with having them vaccinated for RHDV2. Bunnies may be housed indoors only.
We do not adopt out to schools, 4H, or breeders. However, we do have an awesome educational program we can bring to your classroom, scout meeting, birthday party, etc. to teach kids about bunny care and offer the opportunity to pet and interact with a friendly bunny!
Bunnies must be vaccinated for RHDV2 before they may be brought to the shelter for bonding dates. The vaccine has recently been approved in Massachusetts, so check with your veterinarian about getting your bunny up to date. Some of our rabbits are in the process of bonding with rabbits outside our rescue. Bonding can take time, and since not all bonding works, we keep rabbits listed up here until they have been adopted.
Bunnies Available for Adoption
The rabbits below are all eagerly looking for their forever homes! Any rabbits living in the shelter may also be fostered; rabbits are happiest in homes, even when waiting for their forever families.
Barnaby
Male, Adult
*AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION* foster bunny Barnaby was abandoned at Hampshire College in the spring of 2023 where he was left with his belongings and a sign that said, "help me I'm homeless". A very kind person rescued him and brought him to us. Whoever abandoned him had unfortunately not been taking care of him, as his ears were infested with mites which has been causing him great discomfort. One of our volunteers immediately brought him to the vet. Despite the ordeal he has been through, Barnaby is very sweet and in good spirits!
Barnaby is fully vaccinated for RHDV2.
Asparagus
Female, Young Adult
*AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION* shelter bunny This friendly little lady was discovered among the asparagus stalks at a local asparagus farm, and one of the pickers scooped her right up! Naturally, we named her Asparagus. She doesn’t seem to have been outside very long, and with the temps she was rescued from we are relieved. She immediately began munching on pellets and seems to be in good health and spirits!
Asparagus is fully vaccinated for RHDV2.
Bruno
Male, Adult
*AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION* foster bunny Bruno was brought to WMRR by TJO in late 2022. He was caught as a stray and has since adopted very well to indoor life! He is extremely friendly, loves exploring, and demands lots of attention. Bruno does not enjoy being picked up, but he will entertain you for hours with his silly antics. He would make a great addition to any family!
Bruno is fully vaccinated for RHDV2.

After having at least three litters, we are happy that Astrea finally has the chance to relax.
Astrea is fully vaccinated for RHDV2.
Naju
Female, Young Adult
*AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ADOPTION* shelter bunnyNaju was rescued in the same neighborhood where we found Jinju, who we believe to be her sister. She had been abandoned outside for a number of weeks but kept eluding our rescue team. Finally, on an extremely hot day in July, she allowed herself to be rescued. Suffering from severe dehydration and heat exhaustion, Naju quickly slurped up two crocks of water.
Naju wasn't eating or pooping, which had us worried, and we discovered a botfly in her neck. Once the botfly was removed she started feeling better and is now eating, pooping, and relaxing like a happy bunny. Naju is not yet vaccinated for RHDV2.
Galatea
Female, Adult
*AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ADOPTION* shelter bunny Pygmalion and Galatea came to WMRR through TJO, where they were turned in by a kind person who found them at a work site. Poor Galatea was covered in mats, which we carefully removed using pet clippers. Galatea is not yet vaccinated for RHDV2.
Assam
Male, Young Adult
