Making Monday extra hoppy with Articuno!🤍🐰

Articuno is a domestic grey female rabbit who is approximately 1 year old. She is spayed and up to date on monthly doses of Revolution.

Meet Articuno! A gentle, easygoing bunny with a calm presence and a quietly curious nature. She’s a larger rabbit with a relaxed attitude toward life, often choosing comfort over chaos. One of her sweetest quirks is her love of flopping, she’ll frequently stretch herself out completely on her side, especially when she finds a cool, comfortable surface to rest on.

Articuno enjoys exploring her surroundings at her own pace. She’s curious and will happily hop around to investigate new spaces, enrichment items, and anything that catches her interest. While she is still developing confidence with handling, she is improving and can be picked up with care, though she may still feel a bit unsure at times.

She is a sweet girl who does allow pets and is becoming more comfortable with gentle interaction from people. She’s still learning her litter habits, but with consistency and patience she is expected to continue improving.

Articuno is an excellent hay eater and enjoys having space to move, stretch, and express her natural behaviours. She would do best in a home that appreciates a more relaxed bunny personality while continuing to support her confidence-building journey.

Articuno’s adoption fee is $100. If interested, please submit a rabbit adoption application.

Shane is a brown/black tabby domestic shorthair male cat who is approximately 3 years old.

Meet Shane! Shane is a gentle, affectionate boy who enjoys companionship and quiet affection. He can be a little reserved at first, but once he feels safe with you, his personality opens up, he’ll flop over happily for attention, gently nudge you for more pets and greet you with soft, happy little meows.

Shane is most comfortable when life feels calm and predictable. He may start off unsure in new surroundings and he relies on his bed as a comforting retreat when things feel overwhelming or unfamiliar. With patience and consistency, he gradually builds trust and begins to seek out his person more confidently.

As he settles in, Shane shows his sweet and relaxed nature. He enjoys being near people he trusts and will often choose to stay close, quietly soaking up attention once he feels secure. He simply needs time to adjust at his own pace before his affectionate side fully comes forward.

He also enjoys gentle play, especially with feather wand toys. Shane likes a more laid-back style of play, batting and reaching while staying cozy rather than energetic or intense. Most of all, he appreciates a peaceful environment where he can feel safe and unhurried.

Shane will do best in a patient home that allows him to come out of his shell gradually. Once he does, he becomes a soft, affectionate companion who enjoys calm company and quiet moments with his people.

He would likely do well with other cats and dogs with a proper slow introduction.

He is neutered, fully vaccinated with RCCP and rabies, FIV and FeLV negative, microchipped, and on parasite prevention. His adoption fee is $300. To adopt, please submit an adoption application found in the drop down menu on our website.

Thelma is a domestic shorthair calico female cat who is approximately 10 years old.

Meet Thelma! Thelma is a calm senior lady who enjoys a peaceful lifestyle and the comfort of a cozy bed. She has the sweetest meow and you may even hear her soft little snores when she is enjoying a deep, relaxed sleep.

Thelma is a gentle soul who needs a slow and patient introduction to new environments and people. At first, she may be reserved as she takes time to feel safe, but with kindness and consistency, she gradually begins to settle in and show her affectionate side.

Once Thelma trusts you, she becomes a very sweet companion who enjoys stretching out comfortably and soaking up gentle attention. She loves curling up in her bed, often tucking herself into a cozy little ball for long, restful naps.

When she is feeling secure, Thelma is happy to accept pets and will even encourage more once she is fully comfortable. While she is mostly a relaxed and easygoing girl, she does occasionally show a playful spark and will happily engage with a feather wand toy in short, gentle bursts.

Thelma is looking for a quiet, loving home where she can take her time adjusting and enjoy her golden years at her own pace. She is not the biggest fan of being carrier for long periods of time. With patience and care, she becomes a soft, affectionate presence who enjoys calm companionship and cozy moments with her people.

She was declawed prior to arriving in our care. She would likely do well with other cats and dogs with a proper slow introduction.

She is spayed, fully vaccinated with RCCP and rabies, FIV and FeLV negative, microchipped, and on parasite prevention. Her adoption fee is $250. To adopt, please submit an adoption application found in the drop down menu on our website.

Sleepy-snout Sunday staring Oshawatt🐰🤍

Oshawatt is a 1 year old domestic male rabbit who is neutered and up to date on his monthly doses of Revolution.

Meet Oshawatt! Oshawatt is a very easygoing, gentle boy with a playful side. He loves to explore his surroundings and is always curious about what is going on around him. One of his favourite pastimes is tossing his toys into his litterbox, turning cleanup time into his own little game. He absolutely loves foraging for treats and will happily munch away while taking in all the attention he can get.

Oshawatt is starting to accept pets and, with continued patience and positive interactions, will only grow more confident and affectionate. He is not quite litter trained yet but is definitely learning and making great progress. Oshawatt would thrive in a home that encourages his curiosity, supports his litter training and appreciates his sweet, playful personality.

Oshawatt’s adoption fee is $100. If interested, please submit a rabbit adoption application.

Incoming Happy Tail 🐈‍⬛💜

Old Spice, formerly known as All Spice was adopted a year ago in May 2025!

“My partner and I moved into a basement apartment together at the end of April and Old Spice has quickly made it her home. She loves the couch the most and spends most of her time napping there, especially on lazy weekends when we’re watching the tv half the day. Bedtime is her favourite time of the day, she’ll lead us to the bedroom and wait for us at the end of the bed so that she can receive our sleepy affection and then lay in between our legs when we get into bed.

I’ve been working on slowly harness training her so she can enjoy the warm weather but for now she loves basking in the sun on the windowsill. So far, she’s also naturally learnt come and I’ve taught her to sit and (sometimes) give paw.

She’s a very good girl and very well loved, we’re very grateful to have her in our lives.”

Thank you for sharing Old Spice’s photos with us! We are so happy to hear from you and know that Old Spice is thriving in her forever home!

Meet Polar Bear! A big, beautiful girl with a sweet nature and a playful side. She has a nice balance of energy, she enjoys staying active but also appreciates the comfort of her space and downtime in her kennel. She loves to toss her toys around, dig, and forage, making enrichment an important part of her daily routine.

She’s very food-motivated and has a great appetite, happily enjoying all treats, pellets, and veggies offered and she’s excellent at finishing her hay. Polar Bear is doing well with her litterbox habits and would benefit from a larger setup with multiple litterboxes to keep her comfortable.

Polar Bear is a gentle, affectionate bunny who enjoys pets and is continuing to warm up to handling. She’s comfortable being picked up and will often sit calmly on her back in your lap, which she seems to prefer. She’s also quite social and appears unbothered by other rabbits, often approaching for curious sniffs through the bars, so she may do well with a bunny companion.

Polar Bear’s adoption fee is $100. If interested, please submit a rabbit adoption application.

Frolickin’ Friday with Sasha Velour!✨🐰

Sasha Velour is a black domestic male rabbit who is approximately 1.5 years old. He is neutered and up to date on monthly doses of Revolution.

Meet Sasha Velour! He is a calm, easygoing boy who enjoys a clean and cozy space to call his own.

Ayano is a male black and white domestic shorthair who is approximately 1.5 years old.

Meet Ayano! Ayano is a soft-natured, gentle boy with beautifully soft fur and an adorable little spot on his nose that makes him instantly memorable. He has a tender personality and tends to be shy and unsure when first meeting new people, so he will need a calm, patient home that allows him to build confidence at his own pace.

Once Ayano starts to feel safe, his affectionate side slowly begins to emerge. He enjoys being near his people and will quietly seek out head rubs, gentle attention and soft little nudges to ask for more. He also has a cute, endearing habit of happily showing off his paws when he’s feeling relaxed and comfortable, adding to his charm once he trusts you.

Ayano thrives in a peaceful environment and especially benefits from the presence of calm, low-energy cats who respect his space and help him feel secure as he adjusts. Having a steady, quiet routine will help him continue to blossom into his best self.

While he may be reserved at first, Ayano has a lot of love to give once he opens up. He becomes a comforting, loyal presence who enjoys simply being near the people he trusts most.

He is neutered, fully vaccinated with RCCP and rabies, FIV and FeLV negative, microchipped, and on parasite prevention. His adoption fee is $300. To adopt, please submit an adoption application found in the drop down menu on our website.
