Get Listed: Add Your Group to Our Local Resources Lists

We're not a rescue organization - we're not in competition with you. We're here to highlight the fantastic rescue and adoption work that you and hundreds of other local rescues and shelters are doing all across the world.

Our goal is to connect potential adopters, donors, and volunteers with the people doing rabbit work in their area.  The state-by-state rescue/shelter lists we use are hosted and maintained by WabbitWiki, an volunteer group of rabbit advocates. Check below to be sure your organization is listed in the local resource guides that we use throughout our site.

Don't see your group listed, or is your information out-of-date email resources@everybunny.org and we'll make sure to get your information added or corrected.
