Please meet our tiniest little dwarfy babies - Dumpling and Tofu 🤍

These brothers are the most incredible, loving, playful little bunnies I have ever met! All they want in life is love and treats 🫶🏼

Dumpling and Tofu are dwarf jersey wooly bunnies. This means that despite their cuteness, they were bred to be extremely high maintenance. Their teeth will most likely develop issues later in life as dwarf rabbits do not have the jaw space available for proper dental health. They will also require a lot of brushing to keep their fur untangled. Neglecting regular grooming can cause a lot of pain for long haired bunnies as the fur tangles and pulls on their very thin skin.

These brothers are deeply bonded and they are constantly falling asleep on top of one another 🥹 they absolutely adore human attention and love climbing up my shirt to sit in the crook of my neck 🤍🥹

These little lovelies will need a wonderful home and only very serious adopters will be considered for their adoption. They will need an indoor home with a very safe outdoor space to play under strict supervision. They are so small that they can escape nearly any type of play pen and they could easily become prey for a bird or cat roaming around.

They are around 8 weeks old now and have a very healthy appetite 🌼 they will be neutered when they are around 4 months old (or over 1kg)

We carefully select the homes that our bunnies, especially our baby bunnies go to. They will live for the next 10 years so only very serious adopters will be allowed to adopt.

Meet Buddy and Bella - the cutest sibling duo 🐇

These cutie pies came to Hop Haven in search for a home to call their own! Unfortunately when their previous owner moved, they were left behind and have been waiting for a new home since 🌼

Bella and Buddy have both been sterilized through the Haven and are now ready to find their new family 🐇🤍🐇

About the bunnies:

🐇 Buddy:
- bunny is the darker bun
- male, neutered
- +- 6 months old
- friendly, loves to play and dig

🐇 Bella:
- lighter bun
- female, spayed
- +- 6 months old
- confident and friendly
- loves people and adores head rubs

These bunnies are still a little skeptical of people given their background but are coming out of their shells more and more each day 🤍

They both love celery, carrot slices and fresh grass as a snack in the day and have a healthy appetite for their hay and pellets.

Adoption fee: R600 for the pair

Moose & Marley are looking for a home 🤍

Moose and Marley are a tightly bonded pair of dwarf bunnies who were adopted from Hop Haven a while back. Unfortunately due to unforseen circumstances, they are needing to find a new home.

These buns are fully house trained, are extremely friendly and loving and are very loved bunnies 🐰

🤍 Moose:
He is about 2 and half years old. He absolutely LOVES his food, pellets, greens and his most favourite is hay. He’s just a chilled guy, who loves a good binky. He loves time outside as well.

🤍 Marley:
Marley is the sass queen! She’s 2 and a few months (they are close in age). She’s is curious and loves to dig! Marley’s favourite time of day is breakfast. She’s a little nervous of the outside, but she does enjoy it!

Both bunnies have been sterilized already 🌼

Adoption fee is a R500 donation for the pair.

🐰 Meet Penny – A Little Bunny with a Big Heart ❤️

Penny is looking for her forever home, and we know there's someone special out there who will fall in love with her just as quickly as we did.

Penny is a beautiful Angora bunny with the softest, fluffiest coat and the sweetest personality. After being rescued from the side of the road with a badly broken leg, she had to have one of her back legs amputated. But if you ask Penny, having three legs has never stopped her from living life to the fullest!

She's full of confidence, s***k, and a little bit of sass. She gets around brilliantly and doesn't let anything hold her back.

More than anything, Penny adores people. She absolutely loves attention and will happily soak up all the cuddles you can give her. Head scratches are her favorite, and she'll melt into your hands while you stroke her. She also loves having her beautiful long fur brushed, making grooming a lovely bonding experience rather than a chore.

As an Angora rabbit, Penny will need regular grooming to keep her coat healthy and tangle-free, so she'll thrive with someone who can give her the care and love she deserves.

Penny has already overcome so much in her little life. Now all she needs is a family who will see past her missing leg and recognize the incredible, affectionate, and resilient bunny she truly is.

If you think you could be the person to give Penny the loving forever home she's been waiting for, we'd love to hear from you. ❤️

Thanks to our Mandela Day donations, our next batch of cemetery bunnies have been sterilized, healed and have moved to our farm sanctuary where they will be reunited with their friends and live freely!

Our farm sanctuary bunnies are all sterilized, fed and monitored for any illnesses. They free roam and have plenty of sheds, hutches and hiding spots to sleep in 🌼 This is real paradise for bunnies who have been under attack in their home and watched as their friends were hurt, killed or passed away from illness. Now there is no more suffering and they can live out the rest of their lives happily 🫶🏼

A massive thank you to everyone who helped make this possible!

Every donation helps us to help one more bunny be caught, fed, sterilized and transported to their new forever home 🤍🐇🤍

Ps. The cages pictured are for a gradual release so the bunnies know where to find food and water and can acclimate before venturing out 🐇
