Our Process
Think of us as a bunny matching service. Yes, we may have several Available Bunnies, but you don't want just any bunny that looks cute. Our goal is finding the right bunny for the right home. A happy bunny is a joy to be with, but a miserable, upset bunny will soon bring a big case of buyer's remorse. We want our bunnies to go home with the families who are the absolute best fit for them, to ensure a happy relationship for all involved. When a bunny becomes available, it will be offered to the family who is the best match for that bunny's temperament, after also considering the family's desired color, gender, and age. For example if a family is seeking a young, blue tort buck for a pet in their outgoing, often rambunctious family, we will not match them with a quiet-natured young blue tort buck, because it would not be the best fit for that particular bunny. We might suggest an outgoing solid blue buck from a different litter instead, and the family could accept or decline.
From the time you make initial contact with us by answering the Bunny Questionnaire until you are offered a bunny, we are going to be emailing back and forth with you, asking and answering questions, trying to get to know you and your lifestyle well enough that we can get a clear picture of the kind of bunny that would make a happy addition to your home. We ask you to contact us at a minimum of every two weeks so we can keep the conversation going and get to know you well enough to help pick out a bunny that will bring you joy.

FroYo - Pet Quality Baby Buck
Blue-Eyed White Parents: Mrs. Lynde & Mayhem Born on September 29, 2019 Available on or after November 24, 2019 $150 FroYo is the more outgoing little buck among the two boys. He is always at the front of the cage, waiting to come out for playtime and loves exploring, bouncing, and binkying. He would be classified as an active busy-bunny at this point, because he loves sticking his wee nose into whatever activity is going on around him. All of our bunnies go to their new homes with a bag of transition food, hay, organic oats, a toy, resting mat, care sheets, and a birth certificate. As with all of our pet quality bunnies, neutering will be required for his long-term health and well-being. |

Cheesecake - Pet Quality Baby Doe
Solid Blue Point Parents: Tootsie & Little Boy Blue Born on September 16, 2019 Available now $150 Cheesecake is as mellow and chill as her sister Apple Crisp is curious and inquisitive. She loves to snuggle and observe the world with an occasional foray to examine something that catches her attention. She gives a binky now and then, and acts quite surprised by her ability to do them. This litter of babies gave us a scare early on. Two of their litter mates died of sudden, unknown causes, but we suspect something toxic in the hay. Cheesecake was the only baby not affected at all by whatever the others ingested and remained in excellent health during that difficult time. All of our bunnies go to their new homes with a bag of transition food, hay, organic oats, a toy, resting mat, care sheets, and a birth certificate. As with all of our pet quality bunnies, spaying will be required for her long-term health and well-being. |

Jimmy - Pet Quality Baby Buck
Solid Squirrel Parents: Dulcie & Wee Walter Born on August 23, 2019 Available Now $150 Jimmy is a quirky, playful, energetic little Bun. If you look closely at his pictures, you will notice that he has a little smirk-like smile. For whatever reason, Dulcie got a little too enthusiastic when cleaning him up shortly after he was born and he had the tiniest little nip near his wee mouth that healed as it is in his photos. He may be a Vienna Carrier, as well. The patch of white around his left eye is considerably larger than it would normally be in a typical agouti patterned Bun. We love the way he looks and find it adds more character to this little guy who delights in romping and doing zoomies at every opportunity. He is definitely the most energetic and playful baby in this litter. All of our bunnies go to their new homes with a bag of transition food, hay, organic oats, a toy, resting mat, care sheets, and a birth certificate. As with all of our pet quality bunnies, neutering will be required for his long-term health and well-being. |

Marilla - Retired Doe
Solid Chocolate Parents: Charlotte & Joshua Born on May 16, 2017 Available now $250 ($100 for bunny + $150 spaying fee) Marilla is looking for a wonderful family who will encourage her silly, spunky ways. She has an impish streak and loves life. She jumps out of her cage, looking for adventure each and every day, and never fails to brighten our hearts, no matter how grumpy we may be feeling. She is available to a forever home with plenty of love and attention to give. She will go to her new home with transition food, hay, care information, a bag of oats for treats, a snuggle mat, birth certificate, and toy. Marilla was successfully spayed on 9/25/19. |

Mayhem - Pet Buck
Black Vienna Mark Born on January 28, 2019 Available now $125 You know those Allstate insurance commercials featuring Mayhem? Well, this is Mayhem in a bunny suit. He should be placed with insurance and a crash helmet because this little guy can find more ways to get into trouble than a dozen toddlers during nap time. He can climb out of cages, leap from the top of one cage to the top of another, find the weak spot in every exercise pen or room to squeeze his way out, and fling himself in impossible maneuvers that calls one to envision a bunny doing Parkour and Freerunning. Because he is adorably cute and made beautiful Vienna-marked babies, I was willing to give him a try as a breeding buck, but he has already received enough warnings that if he got too wild and crazy, a trip to the vet for neutering will be imminent. As I do not have the energy to keep up with this very playful bunny, we have decided to find a home better suited for his exuberant personality. Neutering will be required for his health and well-being, and for your sanity. ;) He will go to his new home with transition food, hay, care information, a bag of oats for treats, a snuggle mat, birth certificate, and toy. (Sorry, insurance and crash helmet are not included.) |

Plum Bun - Retired Doe - Pet Only
Solid Black Born on March 4, 2016 Available after she recovers from her spay. *** $230 ($75 for Plum Bun + $155 for spay) Plum Bun is the Hot Cross Buns matriarch. She was our first Holland Lop bunny (purchased from our friends at Hook's Hollands) and has presided over the rabbitry with a keen eye and her busy-bossy manner. Plummy is fussy and particular, with the bearing of the most regal of princesses. She is not an easy doe to charm, but we hope spaying will calm her down immensely, as she is a bit uptight. Plum Bun has been the most fertile of does, kindling 30 kits in her six litters with us (she had eight babies in her second litter!) She has more than earned her retirement and we hope to place her in an experienced bunny home. Plum Bun is a sassy girl and is not above giving a nip to express disapproval if something is amiss. For all of her seeming faults, Plummy has been a very special girl to us and we are looking for a family who has experience with other sassy bunnies. She will go to her new home with transition food, hay, care information, a bag of oats for treats, a snuggle mat, and toy. ***Plum Bun has been scheduled for spaying on 12/11/19. She will be available to go to her new home in early January 2020. |

Wee Walter - Retired Buck Solid Squirrel Born on August 1, 2016 Available after 12/26/19 ON HOLD for the S. Family $190 ($80 for Walter + $110 for neuter surgery) ***Wee Walter will be staying with us until he recuperates following his neutering on 12/11/19. He will be available to go home on 12/26/19. Wee Walter is a lovely squirrel buck. He is a bit nosy, sometimes rowdy, but always sweet enough to make us adore him. He is a comical little man and never fails to get a laugh out of us. He has a very luxurious coat and a solid build. He has sired some gorgeous babies with us. Excellent with his litter box and always up for playtime, Wee Walter is very fond of the ladies and performed his job as sire very well. Now it's time for him to retire and enjoy a quieter life. If you are interested in Wee Walter for a pet bunny, we strongly recommend having him neutered for his health and well-being. He will go to his new home with a care packet, transition food, hay, and oats, a resting mat and a toy. |

Apple Crisp - Pet Quality Baby Doe
Solid Sable Point Parents: Tootsie & Little Boy Blue Born on September 16, 2019 Available now $150 RESERVED for K.B. Apple Crisp is a lovely little doe who has grown to be a very inquisitive Bun. She is curious about everything! After she explores, she settles down for pets and snuggles. She is going to be a bigger false dwarf girl, probably weighing 4-4.5 lbs when fully grown. This litter of babies gave us a scare early on. Two of their litter mates died of sudden, unknown causes, but we suspect something toxic in the hay. Apple Crisp was in what appeared to be a light coma for almost 24 hours before coming out of it and returning to life with a business as usual attitude. She shows no signs of health problems and appears to be very strong and healthy. All of our bunnies go to their new homes with a bag of transition food, hay, organic oats, a toy, resting mat, care sheets, and a birth certificate. As with all of our pet quality bunnies, spaying will be required for her long-term health and well-being. |
