Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day

Today, we remember the rabbits and other beloved companions who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. 🌈🐇

Though their tiny paws no longer hop beside us, the joy, comfort, and love they brought into our lives remain forever. We are grateful for every bunny who has been part of our journey and for the memories they left behind.

Run free, sweet friends. You will always be loved, always be missed, and never be forgotten.

Betsy has some great news to share!

She had a recheck with Dr Swantz on Friday, August 21st.

Her wounds are healing.
She has put on .6 lbs!
Her lungs are clear!

She will continue to be on medication until all her wounds are fully healed.

She is ready for a foster home or a foster-to-adopt!

This dainty gal is so sweet! She keeps her area so clean! She happily takes her meds!

Reach out to us if you have space inside your home for her to relax!

🐰 Important Rescue Update 🐰

Hoppy House Rabbit Rescue is closed to new intakes until further notice.

We are currently dedicating all of our resources to rescuing and safely capturing a countless number of stray domestic rabbits in the Barron area. We thought we had caught them all but more reports are coming in! These rabbits did not choose to be abandoned, and they desperately need our help.

At this time, we have no available space left in our rescue. Every enclosure, foster spot, and resource is stretched to the limit.

💛 We urgently need temporary foster homes. If you can provide a safe space, even for a short time, you can make a life-saving difference for a rabbit in need.

🏡 We also have several wonderful rabbits ready for their forever homes right now. By fostering or adopting, you are not only helping the rabbit you bring home, but also opening up space for another rabbit waiting to be rescued.

When you foster or adopt, you save the lives of two rabbits.

Please share this post to help us reach potential fosters and adopters. Together, we can give these rabbits the second chance they deserve.

For information about fostering or adoption, please contact us.

🐰 Help Us Continue Helping Rabbits in Need 🐰

Our medical fund has been completely drained, and we're reaching out for help.

Every rabbit that comes into our care receives a thorough health check and preventative treatment for fleas, mites, ticks, and internal parasites. These treatments are essential to ensure each rabbit has the healthy start they deserve, but the costs add up quickly.

Right now, we have several outstanding veterinary balances that need to be paid:
🐇 Pine: $194.81
🐇 Pancake: $114.95
🐇 Betsy: $123.54
🐇 Cedar: $58.00
🐇 Tamarack: $58.00
🐇 Hemlock: $58.00

No donation is too small. Every dollar helps us provide medical care, take in rabbits in need, and continue our rescue efforts.

💙 Donations can be made directly to Lake Wissota Animal Hospital at 715.726.8811.

Simply call the hospital and let them know you'd like to make a donation toward our rescue's veterinary account.

Thank you for supporting the rabbits in our care and helping us give them the bright, healthy future they deserve. We truly could not do this without our amazing community.

I am tired.

I am tired of seeing animals abandoned. I am tired of watching innocent pets pay the price for irresponsible decisions. And I am especially tired of people acting like dumping a pet is an acceptable solution.

There is never a reason to dump a pet.
If you bring an animal into your home, you are making a commitment to care for that animal for their entire life. Pets are not disposable. They are not temporary hobbies. They are living beings who depend on us for safety, love, and care.

In just one month, seven stray rabbits have been found in one town alone. Seven. These rabbits did not end up outside by accident. Domestic rabbits cannot survive on their own. When they are abandoned, they face starvation, disease, predators, injury, and extreme suffering. Being left outside is not "giving them a chance." It is abandoning them to an uncertain and often tragic fate.

If your circumstances change, there are rescues, shelters, and people willing to help. Reach out. Ask questions. Seek resources. But please, do not dump your pet and walk away from your responsibility.

We would not have caught these two without a compassionate person noticing these buns did not belong outside. She quickly took action by trying to locate the owners and by reaching out to us.

We would not have caught these two without the fabulous volunteers who stepped up to make sure these boys were safe tonight.

We cannot do what we do without volunteers!

🐰 Welcome to HHRR Tamarack and Hemlock!

These two young boys deserved better than being left without a safe place to call home, and we are committed to giving them that chance

Do you have room inside your home for a bunny in need?

Foster homes are an integral part of HHRR's mission. Without foster families, we cannot continue rescuing rabbits who have nowhere else to go. Foster homes provide safety, love, observation, socialization, and daily care while rabbits wait for their forever families. Every foster opening creates space for us to save another rabbit in need.

By fostering, you are quite literally helping us change lives. You provide the bridge between rescue and adoption, giving vulnerable rabbits the second chance they deserve.

If you can open your heart and your home to Tamarack and Hemlock, or another rabbit in need, please contact HHRR today.

Together, we can do better for these animals. They deserve commitment. They deserve compassion. And they deserve a lifetime of care.

💜 A Note from the HHRR Volunteer Team

Many people are surprised to learn that HHRR is run entirely by volunteers. Every rabbit in our care is supported by individuals who generously donate their time while also balancing careers, families, and other commitments.

For that reason, HHRR operates by appointment only. We are not staffed to receive unexpected visitors or walk-in rabbit surrenders.

At this time, we are also closed to intakes and maintaining a surrender waitlist. If you have a domestic rabbit that you can no longer care for, please contact your local humane association or animal shelter for assistance.

We know these situations can be stressful, and we truly appreciate your understanding as we work to provide the best possible care for the rabbits already entrusted to us. Thank you for supporting rabbit rescue. 🐰❤️
