My story

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

Must adopt with bond mate, Cider

Hi! I’m Maize—a 7-month-old Lionhead bunny with a special little twist (literally). I’ve got something called head tilt, which makes me look at the world from a bit of an angle. It started when I was about two months old, but don’t worry—it doesn’t slow me down or stop me from living a full, happy life! I may stumble sometimes or do a few extra circles, but with a gentle and supportive hand nearby, I’m good to go.

The most important thing you should know about me? I must be adopted with my mom, Cider. She’s my rock, my protector, and my snuggle buddy. We’ve been through a lot together, and I feel safest when she’s by my side.

I’m a food connoisseur. Fresh hay is delish and occasional dried apple is the best treat around.  I’m working hard on my litter box habits—they’ve gotten way better since I was neutered! When it’s playtime, I love to dig and have fun. A digging box would be a dream!

If you're looking for a sweet, special guy with a big heart—and an even bigger bond with his amazing mom—We might just be the perfect pair for you.

*RRMN requires all children be 10+ years old for first time bunny owners and 8+ for those with previous bunny experience.  All applications are reviewed   on a case-by-case basis.* 

If you're interested, please fill out an adoption application at: http://www.rabbitrescueofmn.com.

Gender: Male (neutered)

Approximate birthdate: 9/12/2024

Approximate weight: 2.12 pounds

Adoption fee for Pair: $150.00 (+tax)

RRMN bunnies are all vetted, spayed/neutered, and microchipped. All bunnies are fostered in private homes where they are socialized and ready to become indoor companion house pets. RRMN is a non-profit rescue group operated 100% by volunteers, and 100% of donations/adoption fees go to the direct care of our animals. Due to their very special behavioral needs, we do not advocate for our rescue rabbits to serve as Emotional Support Animals (ESAs).  We are unable to provide any documentation or certification for an ESA.     

If you have any questions or are interested in meeting or adopting this bunny, the first step is to complete an adoption application found on our website:  http://www.rabbitrescueofmn.com.  For the safety of our rescue bunnies, our protocol requires a home-visit before placement.  Therefore, we are unable to facilitate adoptions that exceed an hour and a half of travel time from the Twin Cities area.

Go meet their pets

We are a foster based Rescue and do not have a shelter location. You must have an approved application on file before an official meet-and-greet can occur. However, we regularly hold public events where anyone is welcome to stop by and meet some bunnies! All events can be found under the "Events" tab on our website.

More about this rescue

Rabbit Rescue of MN is a 501(c)3 non-profit rabbit rescue. Our mission is somewhat different than that of many other rescues as we take in sick, abused, neglected, abandoned and unwanted domestic rabbits, as well as rabbits from the public that are no longer wanted. We fundraise in order to get proper vetting and then focus on rehabilitation to ready our rabbits for their forever homes.


We are 100% volunteer-based and have no paid staff. All of our rescue rabbits are cared for in private foster homes where they are properly housed and receive love and socialization. We do not advocate housing our rescue rabbits in pet stores of any kind. Prior to adoption we screen our applicants thoroughly including a background check and a visit to our applicant's home to ensure that our rescue rabbits will be properly housed in a well-ventilated, well-lit and space appropriate area. Our mission includes educating first time rabbit families on the proper housing, exercise, diet and medical care.


Our rescue rabbits are all wellness checked, spayed/neutered and microchipped prior to adoption. We pride ourselves on informing the public that domestic rabbits are “exotic” pets/family members and require very specific care, medical attention and housing, as well as a space in the home where they can be part of the family.
