Rescue FAQs

Tampa Bay House Rabbit Rescue Inc. ("TBHRR") is an all-volunteer-run, donation-funded, foster-home-based, no-kill, 501(c)(3) rescue. We strive to help domestic rabbits in the Tampa Bay Area of Florida as well as other rabbit rescues in Florida and throughout the USA, whenever possible.

TBHRR is committed to bettering the lives of house rabbits through education. We offer free education and are always willing to give advice according to the House Rabbit Society's guidelines, plus our years of personal experience with animal rescues and the house rabbits we have owned and/or fostered.
Primarily based in the Tampa Bay area, Florida, we also offer transport help and will occasionally do out-of-state adoptions for special cases.
