We are a Seattle-area house rabbit rescue and we have lots of great, healthy bunnies for adoption. We are also experts when it comes to special-needs house rabbits, and we want our website to become a resource for special-needs bunny owners. We care for 60-80 bunnies at our shelter, and we provide permanent sanctuary for bunnies who need specialized care. We are an all-volunteer, registered 501(c)3 organization.

We have a total for our auction! (Alfred fell asleep waiting for it). We kept getting additional donations from folks who couldn't attend in person, and we couldn't be more blown away by all the support you guys give us. Brace yourself...including the anonymous match, corporate matches, ticket sales, the silent auction, and the raise-the-ears donations, you helped us raise $22,448! Every penny will go to the care of the bunnies (and we'll have to buy one box of tissues, to sop up the grateful, happy tears of our volunteers). Thank you, thank you, thank you. And please remember to go back and visit the Rusty Pelican Cafe Mill Creek and the Rusty Pelican Cafe Edmonds for delicious food and to support their business, because they do so much for local rescues (and the food is amazing).
If you missed the auction, make sure you follow us on Facebook so you are among the first to know when we have events. And of course we always welcome donations from anyone, any time. :)
Wednesday, September 2, 2015 at 1:13PM We are officially SOLD OUT! See you lucky ticket holders on October 24 at 5pm at the Rusty Pelican, Mill Creek!
And check out the incredible catalog of auction items that you'll get to bid on!
Thursday, March 19, 2015 at 12:44PM Hi bunny lovers! If you are in the general Seattle area and are looking for part time work, have we got the gig for you!
Specifically, we are looking for help on Wednesdays and Fridays from 10-2.
Here are the details:
Hello Everyone! We need you to...COME WORK FOR SPECIAL BUNNY! We have a couple of PAID opportunities at our Carnation, WA shelter (an easy 30 min drive from Seattle).
Hours: 10am - 2pm every Wednesday and/or Friday (or we can discuss times, as long as work is done by 3pm).
Pay: $13/hour. We really want someone who can commit and be consistent.
The job is mostly cleaning. We are proud to take excellent care of our animals and we insist on keeping them very clean and comfortable:
--Empty/refresh bunny litter boxes
--Refill water containers.
--Vacuum bunny cages and pens.
--Replace soiled towels and rugs, shake out laundry.
--Vacuum/sweep the barn at the end of the shift.
--Refill the clean litter can. This requires you to lift a few 40-pound bags of litter. This is the heaviest work of the shift, and is handled with ease by our volunteers (none of whom are super-strong).
YOU must be:
--> over 16
--> able to transport yourself to and from work
--> able to commit at least one day a week for at least 3 months
--> someone with references who will confirm that you are reliable and trustworthy
--> willing to buckle down for four hours and get 'er done
--> happy to be around wonderful sweet animals
STUDENTS WELCOME if you are a good worker.
