My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

INDOOR ONLY HOMES PLEASE!

Gatsby was rescued on New Year’s Eve 2021 from living on the streets of downtown Riverside! We were tipped off about his plight by a good Samaritan.

Gatsby is adorably cute! The most remarkable thing about him is how loud and fast he chatters his teeth when you pet his head! It’s like his mouth is in overdrive simulating the old kid’s toy Clackers! He must be in heaven now that he’s no longer fending for himself!

He’s acclimated well since his rescue. He’s a fun and frisky bunny. He will snuggle in your arms for oodles of love and head rubs! He’s a hotot mix with a few black spots on his back. His right eye is half brown and half blue (heterochromia).

Gatsby enjoys his pen neighbors here at the rescue so he may want a female friend. He’s a docile, submissive, easygoing bun just waiting for someone to scoop him up and take him home.

Gatsby needs to live indoors either: 1) free roaming, 2) in a room or a section of a room, or 3) in an x-pen enclosure or homemade DIY wire grid system. A cage/hutch is not recommended unless the door is open and an x-pen can be placed around it.

Please be over 21 if inquiring about a rabbit.

Gatsby can be seen by appointment in Lake Elsinore after a questionnaire is completed or a phone consultation conducted. Delivery is also available to the greater southern California area. His adoption fee is $60 which covers his neuter surgery cost. Any additional donations to keep the rescue afloat are greatly appreciated.

BENEFITS OF ADOPTION FROM KRIBS FOR KRITTERS RABBIT RESCUE:

* Lifetime free nail trims and scent gland cleaning
* Unparalleled rabbit education before you adopt
* Ongoing support after you adopt
* Starter hay and toys
* Reasonably priced boarding when you're on vacation

Don't have the items you need to welcome a bunny to your home? No problem, I have low-cost x-pen enclosures, litter boxes, bunny litter, hay, food pellets and toys to make new bunny ownership easier for you. Your local big chain pet store is probably NOT the best place to buy rabbit supplies!

Or, if you prefer to get your bunny supplies ahead of time, PLEASE consult with me before you purchase them as I can direct you to the least expensive and most appropriate rabbit essentials.

We do have a phone screening process or printed questionnaire for potential adopters to fill out. We have an adoption contract and a reasonable donation fee for the adoption to help cover the cost of spay/neuter, vet check, etc.

Go meet their pets

Come find your new furry friend in Lake Elsinore at our private shelter by appointment or in Orange County or Los Angeles County at one of our foster homes. Rabbits can be transported to you in the greater Southern California region (including LA County, Orange County, San Diego County, Inland Empire, Ventura County).

More about this rescue

Kribs for Kritters primary focus is rescuing domestic rabbits that have been abandoned at parks, schools, golf courses, fitness trails and any other outdoor location. Kribs for Kritters also assists Golden View Farm Rabbit Rescue in their heroic efforts.

All rabbits are spayed/neutered prior to adoption.

We are both a rescue and a shelter. We have over 100 rabbits in our care. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, just ask. It is likely we have a bunny to suit your needs. New bunnies are being rescued every week. We don’t always have time/resources to post every bunny that crosses our path.

We have an exceptionally high success rate of bunny bonding on the very first date. So, if you’re looking for a mate for your existing bunny, give us a try.

Our operating costs are at least $1,000 per month so donations are always appreciated. Donations can be made to PayPal.me/kribsforkritters.
