Easter is a very sweet, calm bunny. He was abandoned by a family who got him for a child. When they moved away they left him behind in the garden in North Vancouver. Scroll down to see a video of Easter!
The neighbour saw that he was abandoned and kept an eye on him. She fed him and built a little shelter for him. However, she could not take him in as she has two large, predatory cats. So she called us when the weather got really nasty and one of our good volunteers went to pick him up.
Easter was super easy to catch. The good samaritan simply picked him up and our volunteer transported him to the shelter. He is a neutered male and a friendly boy. Easter will be a fine little house bunny and happy to be inside out of the cold. He’s good with his litter box and appreciates toys to chew and toss around.

Milton is a young, black rabbit with lots of attitude. He came as a small baby rabbit and was a real sweetie. As he grew up he became very territorial and we had to separate him from his male buddy, Truffle. Milton is a lively, interesting rabbit but he is prone to biting. He has become less so with the man of his foster family so it could be that he prefers men.
This rabbit needs a home with someone who understands rabbits and will enjoy his feisty nature. He is good with his litter and not a big chewer. When he was in the shelter he would accept petting on his terms so he is not all bad. Rabbits like Milton can be very rewarding and we hope a bunny lover will find him. If you would like to adopt Milton, please apply today!
Meet these adorable devoted sisters, Twilight & Stream!
These two girls date of birth is April 4, 2022. They came into VRRA July 20, 2022 with their mother and siblings. Twilight (black female) has a fun outgoing personality – she loves to come up to you and play for treats. She will nip/nudge is she feel you aren’t paying enough attention to her. Stream (grey/silver female) can be shy but likes to snuggle with her sister. Stream had to have one eye removed due to EC. She is completely recovered and healthy now. Stream will come up to you if you are sitting down, for head pets.
They are free roaming in their current home – a loving foster home with two children. They love to do zoomies and binkies in the evenings and run to the kids rooms to say goodnight. These two are confident and will run up and down stairs. They enjoy their chew toys and are very well behaved. They have very good litter skills. We would love for this pair to find their furever home! If you would like to adopt them, please apply today!
Marvel was heard screaming in a backyard and picked up by a kind person and brought to us. He had a terrible injury on his right hip area. Little Marvel was only about 5 weeks old and could sit in my hand. The wound was a bad one, deep and infected and smelled awful. The veterinarian and I started treatments with antibiotics and wound cleaning. It was touch and go, but little Marvel kept eating, and slowly the terrible wound healed. I called him Marvel because it was amazing that he lived. Scroll down to see some photos of Marvel when he was first found.
He is now a happy, healthy, very active bunny with lots of attitude. His right hind leg is useful to him but not very flexible and prevents him from cleaning or scratching his right ear. So that is his extra care need – cleaning his ear. Marvel deserves a caring and fun home with someone who really loves him. If you can give him that home, please apply today!
Here are some photos of Marvel as a little baby. Without examination you could not see the terrible wound – probably from a cat/racoon/dog bite. He was heard screaming and the homeowner scared off the predator but couldn’t see what it was. These photos were taken once the wound was shaved and first treated.
Garrott is a very lucky boy. A good samaritan took him to the Cottonwood Clinic in Maple Ridge when they found him outside. HIs foot was bleeding and seemed twisted. The clinic called us because they do not see rabbits so we took him in. His leg was bent inwards but did not seem injured but his toes on that foot were bleeding. Garrot had one joint missing on one toe and the other toes were missing nails and all bleeding and sore. The veterinarian cleaned up his foot and bandaged it. We gave him pain medication and waited to see how it healed. After only a few weeks and a few bandage changes his foot had healed. He uses the foot and it has lost most of the twist now. We have no idea how this could have happened.
Garrot is very friendly and loves to be petted. He is litter trained and in good health. There should be no more problems with his foot. As his nails were lost he may need some help cleaning his left ear. Garrot got his name from a combination of “Gary” and “Carrot”. Some lucky person will get a marvellous pet!

Mandy and Soleil are not sisters but they have chosen each other. Both were found in parkades downtown, Mandy, the black one, in the Manulife parkade and the harlequin, Soleil, in the Hotel de Soleil parkade. They were only about 2 months old and probably rode there in the undercarriage of a car.
They were kept separate but Mandy jumped in with Soleil very soon after she came, and they have been good friends ever since. They are not big rabbits. They use their litter box well and are curious, friendly bunnies once they know their people and place. Mandy tends to be the leader with Soleil right behind!
If you would like to give Mandy and Soleil a home, please apply today!
Simone and Norman are best buddies. Norman was rescued as a baby bun with his brother Nathan. Sadly Nathan died but then Simone came along and she’s been Norman’s friend ever since. They are both about 4 yrs old. Norman is white and is more laid back than Simone. She is black and white probably a Dutch cross. Both are overweight and need space to run around and reduce their weight.
They are not hard to handle though they prefer to stay on the ground. They use their litter box and are not destructive. They have recently lost their long term foster place so are a bit sad. If you would like to give Simone and Norman a home, please apply today!
Jellybean was rescued as a small baby and has always had some kind of neurological trauma that causes her to be a bit unsteady. When excited she turns in circles. However, she is a very sweet and friendly girl who loves petting and attention. She is good with the pee in the litter box but tends to leave some droppings around.
Jellybean needs a home and to get out of the shelter. She really will be a loving pet. Jellybean is 2 yrs old in August. If you would like to adopt her, please apply today!

Bruce and Clark bonded a long time ago, and enjoy one another a lot. They are both neutered, litter trained and very independent as long as they are set up with a cardboard box, hay and water!
Bruce is the alpha. He is the one with the oatmeal coloured coat. He is a very caring bunny that loves to lick, play and be petted. He especially loves shoulder and jaw massages, as well as a tunnel to run through.
Clark is a bit more shy and slightly smaller. He loves to throw plastic cups and sticks, and chew on cardboard boxes. Clark isn’t always a fan of being petted, but will let you as long as Bruce isn’t looking!
Both boys are very well behaved, and tidy with their litter boxes. Give them pets and treats and they will love you back! If you would like to adopt them, please apply today.
