My story

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

Twila is a little curly black lion who needs some one to love! She dumped was by a dumpster and was living there, confused and scared for several weeks when someone finally picked her up.  



She's understandably a little shy and likes to retreat to her carrier when she's nervous but has no problem relaxing in her space most of the time. Twila is a sweet little girl and loves pets, and is good being held!



She was recently spayed and cancer was found on her uterus which was removed. She will need an xray in August to recheck that it hasn't returned. We don't know her age but think she's may be an older adult. Twila would be thrilled to have a bunny friend or even just a hoomin who will shower her with love!

The adoption fee helps to offset the spay/neuter cost. It's important to do to prevent cancer and improve litterbox habits. Our vets provide a very discounted rate so this is a great deal! Our buns also receive a wellness check and parasite test.

About bunnies:
First time rabbit adopter? We can send you information about housing and care. You should also know:

- They are NOT starter pets. They need (indoor) space and attention like a small dog would. They need hay, pellets and greens daily. And any health issues (not eating, etc.) require immediate attention.

- Because bunnies are fragile, startle easily, and usually don't want to be handled, they are not a good fit for small kids.

- They can be somewhat skittish but they are also fun. If patient and understand that bunnies get comfortable with people on their own terms, you'll make a bunny friend. Spending time on the floor with them and offering treats is a great way to bond with them.

- Bunnies MUST be housed indoors. RHDV-2, a highly contagious and fatal wild rabbit disease in now in Florida and transmitted in the ground. Domestic rabbits cannot tolerate the heat. They also need to be safe from predators and parasites like ear mites. They will be much happier being a part of the family, inside.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster-based rescue. We do not have a shelter. Get in touch to set up a meeting to see our bunnies!

More about this rescue

Our rescue started in 2019 when an out of control breeding situation required help. We helped a homeowner get 100+ bunnies fixed and into homes. The need is so great in our county that we kept rescuing.

We adopt to indoor homes because:
- your bunny should be a part of your family! They will be happy, safe.
- Florida temperatures are too extreme for domestic rabbits.
- a hutch is not enough! Buns need space for exercise, social interaction, protection from the elements, mites, fleas, predators, and diseases.
