  • You DO have to find your own #bunniness but you DON'T have to find your own bunny! We have many adoptable bunnies who were found by other people so that you can enjoy *their* bunniness in your own life. Take a look at our adoptables at https://tbhrr.petfinder.com and let us know which one(s) seem to fit best with your human nature. #BunnyBuddhism #AdoptARescueRabbit #HouseRabbitsAreTheBest #BuyABunnyALittleTIme

  • Tomasz is an amazing photographer who volunteers to take pictures of our foster buns for us- and boy did he have his work cut out for him with the babies this weekend! Despite their best attempts to distract him, he got some amazing shots- go take a look at his blog to see (and maybe check out our other fosters)!! 🐰📷 https://www.disapprovingbun.com/2019/09/youg-disapprover-tbhrr.html?m=1 #tampa #florida #AdoptAHouseRabbit #adoptdontshop #Rabbits #Rescue

  • TBHRR would like to acknowledge a generous donation from Bill Fitzgerald that was made in memory of David Blair, Class of 1972, McComb High School, McComb, Mississippi. May David's spirit binky free with the bunnies in the lush, green meadow by the Rainbow Bridge 🌈! David will be truly missed by his beloved family, friends, classmates, and his bunnies. David was a generous contributor to our rescue who visited us at events and even dedicated his recent birthday fundraiser to our rescue.

  • Adult rabbits need to eat Timothy Hay, Orchard Grass, or other appropriate hay to keep their ever-growing teeth down and as roughage to pass the fur they ingest from cleaning themselves! Alfalfa should be reserved for babies and nursing mothers.

    As Hurricane Dorian takes aim at Florida, many families are facing the possibility of having to evacuate their homes and seek shelter in a hotel.

  • With Hurricane Dorian on its way, humane societies and shelters on the Atlantic Coast need to evacuate their bunnies post haste. We cannot take any bunnies without YOUR help! We will provide you with all necessary supplies, except fresh veggies and love; however, in order to help, we need some foster homes for an indeterminate period of time. Please send us a private message or email us at info@tbhrr.org if you are willing to help!

  • While we obviously are bunny people, we try to help other species when we can! A board member pulled this little guy out of a coworkers wheel well in Seminole Heights. A vet confirmed he is not microchipped- please share so we can try to find his owner! #Tampa #Florida #Lostpet #Foundpet

  • Ivy

    Tampa Bay House Rabbit Rescue's cover photo

  • Introducing IVY!!! While we've posted about her before, she's now officially over her post-spay hold, and she's ready for her forever home! If you didn't see our earlier posts about her, Ivy was abandoned by the entrance to Lettuce Lake Park in north Tampa, and several concerned people contacted us about her. We were able to put together a small team (a HUGE thank you to Rachel, Patrick, and Christopher for coming to help!!!), and made all sorts of elaborate preparations for catching her involving multiple x-pens and other items. Ivy, being the smart rabbit she is, skillfully avoided all of those! In the end, it was a simple piece of fruit inside of a carrier that lured her into our clutches! 😀 We were able to get her to a vet for a quick checkup that evening, and then on to her foster home (after a weekend stay with our president). She was spayed on July 18, and only a few days later her foster noticed a discolored bump on her neck. We were pretty sure it was a botfly under her skin, and got her in to the vet a day later, who confirmed our suspicion and successfully removed it. Now fully healed from both the botfly and her spay operation, she's looking for that special human to call her own. Are YOU special enough for her??? Contact us here on Facebook or via e-mail and make your case! And just a fun bit of trivia about her name.... The board member who led the rescue mission for her initially wanted to name her Poison Ivy, because she was convinced that she had contracted it romping around in the bushes trying to keep Ivy out in the open while we got things organized (turns out she didn't). But, in the end, we just shortened it to Ivy.

  • Hello, I have three sweet rabbits that need a forever home. I have looked at many places but unfortunately everywhere is at capacity and I was wondering if someone could help me with rehoming. The original caretaker will be going out of the country later this month and we have to sell our house as well. If anyone knows of a sanctuary or a place that will take very good care of my rabbits please let me know! They are all spayed and healthy.
