Adopt a Rabbit
Adopt a Rabbit
If you are interested in adopting a rabbit from us, please read the following and then email us for an application form at stfrancisanimalwelfare@gmail.com.
- Rabbits must have access at all times to a minimum space of 3×2×1 m.
- When adopting a rabbit to bond with an existing rabbit, they should live side by side for at least two weeks before introductions.
- Side by side living can begin once both rabbits are 6+ weeks post-neuter. A divided enclosure is fine, provided their eventual shared accommodation meets the minimum space requirement.
- Neutral space introductions can begin at 8+ weeks post-neuter, starting with supervised 5–10 minute sessions and gradually increasing daily according to behaviour.
- Adoption can take place earlier if the rabbits can be kept completely separate with no physical contact.
- For further guidance, please refer to the Rabbit Welfare Association & Fund.
