WOBURN, MA. Nov 30, 2007 – In late April the House Rabbit Network received a phone call about a colony of stray rabbits. The volunteers of the House Rabbit Network began a large-scale rescue in a retirement community in Plymouth to capture these rabbits. Although it is not known how this area became populated with a colony of domesticated rabbits, it is thought that the situation began a couple years ago with the release of two rabbits that were living in a backyard hutch.

Over the last several months HRN volunteers have made numerous trips to the neighborhood to capture the stray rabbits. This long-term rescue effort has resulted in the placement of over seventeen rabbits into HRN foster homes, eight of which have been adopted into loving, permanent homes. Additionally, over a dozen rabbits have been placed with another rescue group. We can only hope that we captured all of them. The House Rabbit Network needs your help. All of the rabbits have been spayed or neutered and are now waiting adoption! The rabbits of the Plymouth rabbit rescue are all larger, beautiful rabbits with sweet personalities. Most of the rabbits are a solid black, or white with pretty hazel eyes.
Rabbits make wonderful indoor pets. All of the rabbits at the House Rabbit Network are fixed and litter box trained making it even easier to integrate a bunny into your home! Please consider adopting one of these Plymouth rabbits or any of the other rabbits in our care. For general information on rabbit care, please read our “Bunny Basics” article on our website www.rabbitnetwork.org. You can see pictures of all our bunnies and read the stories of how they were rescued. If you are ready to adopt, call us at 781-431-1211.
