About us
We are a registered charity home-based small animal rescue in Derbyshire.
We take in rabbits and find them loving homes, we have currently paused taking in rodents and are focusing on rabbits for the foreseeable future
- We always spay/neuter & vaccinate rabbits (Myxi/RHD1 & RHD2)
- We ensure that all rabbits get bonded to other rabbits as they're a social species
- Home checks are carried out and rabbits must have at least 3mx2m enclosure footprint at their new home
- Our animals have life-time rescue back up, if the adopters can no longer keep them then they must be returned to us
- We do not receive money from pet retailers and rely entirely on public donations
- We are against the breeding and selling of all animals
We are against the pet trade in general, bringing animals into existence for human entertainment can never be justified. The vast majority of cages/items sold by pet shops too are not suitable at all. Pet shops operate for profit and exploit animals, rescues clean up their mess. Please don't support the pet trade, the higher the demand -> the more they'll breed.
Adoption Process
If you are interested in offering any of our rabbits a home, check out our 'care & adoption' section. You can also email us at burrowedheartsrescue@outlook.com to check that the rabbits you are interested in are still available before filling out an application.
We don't home animals to be used to teach children responsibility. We are happy to home to families as long as the adults are wanting to care for the animals, often children get bored which is one of the reasons why so many animals end up in rescues
