Meet Bootsie! Bootsie has been spotted off-and-on since March 2025 in a neighborhood in Bellmore. He was tricky, evasive and fast. He outsmarted his rescuers at nearly every turn, until one fateful day when Bootsie was rescued by an experienced cat rescuer. He was affectionately named "Bootsie" by a child in the neighborhood due to his adorable white feet.
Bootsie was in very poor condition upon intake. He tested positive for three different types of intestinal parasites. Additionally, he had an incredibly large botfly that had embedded itself into his private area. He has since had the botfly removed and is receiving ongoing treatment for the parasites.
Since Bootsie was barely surviving on his own since March 2025, he is understandably a bit nervous around humans. However, he is very attentive when his nightly pellets are given to him. This indicates that he is quite food motivated and food will be the key to winning him over. With time, Bootsie will come around.
Take a chance on this warrior! He has the heart of a champion!
If you are interested in applying to adopt Bootsie, please email info@allaboutrabbitsrescue.org for an application. The adoption fee is $95.

Go meet their pets
We hold adoption events each month in Manhattan on 26th Street where we showcase about 20 rabbits. Folks can learn about rabbit care, meet and pet the rabbits. Rabbit guardians can bring their rabbits for grooming by donation. For those rabbit guardians who understand the bonding process, we conduct rabbit speed dates to see who gets the rose.
Our Manhattan events are always on a Sunday from 1130 to 230. They are held at a clean spacious dance studio.
It is open to the public.
