House Rabbit Society is a national, nonprofit animal welfare organization based in Richmond, California. Our mission has two parts:
Through our fostering program, volunteers rescue abandoned rabbits and find permanent adoptive homes for them.
Through education, we seek to reduce the number of unwanted rabbits — and to improve bunnies' lives — by helping people better understand these often misunderstood companion animals.
In line with our mission, we are against the exploitation of rabbits
Since HRS was founded in 1988, over 15,000 rabbits have been rescued through our foster homes across the United States. Many of these bunnies had run out of time at animal shelters and were scheduled for euthanasia; others had been deemed "unadoptable" because of age, health, or disposition.
Because there is no time limit on our rescued rabbits, HRS foster parents are able to spend time getting to know each individual bunny and can then match him or her with an appropriate home. We neuter/spay all incoming rabbits, obtain any necessary veterinary care, and attend to their social needs.
In caring for so many diverse bunnies, our all-volunteer organization has learned a tremendous amount about their social, behavioral, and medical requirements. By sharing the collected information these rabbits have taught us, we are able to help other people improve their relationships with their rabbits. HRS provides educational materials to veterinarians and humane societies and helps individual rabbit people solve behavior and health problems, primarily through our web site, www.rabbit.org, and our quarterly publication, House Rabbit Journal.
Over the past 15 years, HRS has grown from 300 to more than 8,000 members, with local chapters and educators in over 30 states. Our web site, www.rabbit.org, is accessed over 100,000 times a day by people in dozens of countries around the world.
The Philosophy of the House Rabbit Society
The House Rabbit Society believes that ALL rabbits are valuable as individuals, regardless of breed purity, temperament, state of health, or relationship to humans.
The welfare of all rabbits is our primary consideration.
In line with our mission, we are against the exploitation of rabbits.
Except for unique situations, in which wild animals are being nursed or rehabilitated, it is in the best interest of wild rabbits that human intervention be held to a minimum.
Domestic rabbits are not the product of natural selection, but rather of human interference by means of breeding programs, and the product is a human-dependent animal who needs protection. It is therefore a human responsibility that these animals be cared for in a manner appropriate to their needs.
It is in the best interest of domestic rabbits to be neutered/spayed, to live in human housing where supervision and protection are provided, and to be treated for illnesses by veterinarians.
Domestic rabbits are companion animals and should be afforded at least the same individual rights, level of care, and opportunity for longevity as commonly afforded to dogs and cats who live as human companions.
Rabbits are intelligent, social animals who require mental stimulation, toys, exercise, environmental activity, and social interaction (from, as appropriate, people, other rabbits, or other animals).

Hey House Rabbit Society,
***** ACTION ALERT!!! ***** NEED E-MAILS/CALLS!!! COURT ON JUNE 16th ARIELLA NEEDS TO BE HOME BEFORE THEN!!!
Please sign to demand Ariela to be released to her owner R/R
This elderly lady went to hospital for surgery... Put Ariela in kennel. She had to stay 7 weeks in hosp.
She paid mostly everything but 200. Ariela was not to be released. She then paid that amount, but bill went up. She paid $1,500 to kennel, now 3 months later kennel still won't release but also says she owes $2,000 now. The dog has been there over 5 months. No bath. Now has large cyst, getting bigger. The old dogs spirit is being broken living in small cage with no walks. This dog is used to being spoiled, the kennel will not even let the owner look at dog through window!!
THIS WEEK HAS ALREADY BEEN NUTS FOR ME.. SO I'VE I HOPE YOU ENJOY THE REST OF YOURS!! HAVE A GREAT NIGHT! OH YES AND TOMORROW IS HUMP DAY WOOHOOO.. HALF WAY TO THE WEEKEND!!
Vick a PETA Spokesperson!? Target:PETA & Commissioner, NFL, Roger S. Goodell Sponsored by:Advocate for Saving Dogs PETA helping Vick get back into the game by making him an animal-rights spokesperson! We dont think so!
NEW YORK (AdAge.com) -- Michael Vick is in talks to become the new spokesman for PETA.
Yes, you read that correctly. The disgraced one-time NFL superstar serving prison time for funding an illegal dog-fighting ring is primed to do public-service ads for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals upon his release later this month. According to three people with knowledge of the matter, the proposed endorsement is part of a comprehensive PR scheme aimed at rehabilitating the quarterback. Other image-changing moves
That's not all Mr. Vick will do to try to rehabilitate his image. People with knowledge of his comeback plan said it will also include mea culpa TV interviews, PSAs and charitable donations to other animal-rights organizations (or perhaps the formation of his own foundation), along with the possibility of working with PETA. But this might be the mother of all PR jobs. Mr. Vick's obstacles are many: a hard-line NFL commissioner who wants to see "genuine remorse" before reinstating Mr. Vick to the league; individual franchises that might be wary of the backlash and potential damage to their brands from signing Mr. Vick; and an incredulous public that remains shocked by the story. And what a grisly tale it is.

I spoke with the kennel owner. She tried telling me Ariela's mom went to the Bahamas and never came back for her dogs for months. That Ariela's mom was homeless, ect. Ariela's mom did produce paperwork stating sh had surgery, and she has lived at her place for some time. FYI, it does not really matter, Ariela is her and the KENNEL HAS NO RIGHT TO KEEP ARIELA!!!!
Happy Birthday! Thank you for all the work you do!
I rescued four sweet female mice on March first. I uploaded an album of 23 pics on my page, if anyone wants to see. And my rescued guinea pig, Miles, is four and a half.
