Rabbits

PHS/SPCA almost always has a LOT of rabbits available for adoption.

Want to know more about rabbits? Rabbits are social, can be litterbox trained, and have a life span of eight to ten years. Rabbits should live inside for protection from predators. Their living area should be free of materials that would be dangerous to chew.

PHS/SPCA includes spay or neuter surgery as part of the $40 adoption fee for our rabbits (altered rabbits are healthier and have better dispositions). If you'd like a little furry bundle (or two or three!) in your life come talk to an adoption counselor today.

If you cannot locate the rabbit of your dreams here at PHS/SPCA, then be sure to check out the House Rabbit Society organization. The House Rabbit Society rescues rabbits from shelters and places them up for adoption, and their web site provides a wealth of information on rabbit care.

Two (or More) for One Specials!

These rabbits came from the same home or have bonded together at PHS/SPCA. Because they have bonded, they want to go to a new home together. Thinking of opening your home to two (or several) rabbits? You can't go wrong with bunnies who are already buddies!

See our video! Hello! We're Tori and Dustin, a mother-and-son bonded pair. Dustin takes after mama with a lovely gray coat of fur, but we've each got our own distinctive coloring. Tori's such a good mama, watching over Dustin all the time. We would like a patient home where we can get to know you at our own pace. Dustin’s always roaming around, with Tori watching over him patiently on the side. We’re both a bit independent, but with a little patience, and lots of treats!, we can be won over. We hope you'll come get to know us soon! Our ID numbers are A405342 (Tori, front right) and A405341 (Dustin, back left).

See our video! Hello! We are Carly and Candy, a bonded couple looking for a double-date! Well, actually, we get along with lots of different folks, so don’t be shy and come over to meet us!  We were a little shy at first when meeting new people but we’ve found out how great it is to hang out with them. We both love to play and explore and we can be pretty adventurous sometimes! If the door is open, you’ll be sure to see us peeking out, seeing where we can explore next.  After a long play time, we’re also happy to stretch out for some pets.  See you soon! Inquire about us by our ID numbers, A422993 for Carly (gray-white) and A422994 for Candy (black and white).

Available Single Rabbits Seeking Wonderful Homes

If your family prefers a single companion rabbit, don't pass up the fabulous opportunity of these animals.

See our video! Hi!  We are the Snow angels, all sparkly white New Zealand rabbits.  Snowflake is the brother and Snowfluff and Snowpuff are the sisters.  We’re all so similar that the volunteers have trouble telling us apart, but Snowflake is a wee bit heavier.  As siblings, not only do we look alike, we also love similar activities such as playing, exploring, and snacking on yummy hay and veggies!  We love a good time, so we hope you’ll be joining us soon!  We would all like to go home with you as a trio, but we are also okay with individual adoptions.  Our ID numbers are A419808 (Snowflake), A419809 (Snowfluff), and A419810 (Snowpuff).

See our video! Hi! We are Ice Cream and Sprinkles, and we are siblings ready to explore the world! We both have very curious personalities and lots of energy. We’re about 6 months old and just about full grown. As you can guess, Ice Cream is white all over except for his nose, ears and paws since he’s a partly Californian rabbit. Sprinkles has a smattering of black along her back and is a mostly American rabbit. We are friendly siblings but also independent so we can be adopted individually or together. As they say though, the more the merrier! Our ID numbers are A428485 (Ice Cream) and A428492 (Sprinkles)

Hi! My name is Bugsy and I’m a female, New Zealand white rabbit.  I’m an active gal so I’m often busy exploring and checking things out while playing outside. While I’m having fun, you’ll see me kick up my feet and do jumps of joy! I’ve got a spunky personality and can sometimes be a little protective of my space, but it’s only if I feel uncomfortable. Once I feel at home with new friends or in a new space, I enjoy the company and like a few pets here and there. I hope you’ll be coming to visit! My ID number is A416155.

See my video! Hi! My name is Clover, and I’m a very energetic and curious New Zealand rabbit. I’m a larger-sized guy, so I'm more comfortable following you instead of being carried--I hope you won’t mind! So, when it’s play time, show me the way and we can have a fun time outside! I like to jump on top of things to get a view of the area and then go running about to explore. After I'm finished playing, I love to stretch out and take a nap in the sunshine. See you soon! My ID number is A421119.

See my video! Hi! My name is Spotty and as you can see, I’ve got an assortment of spots on me, almost like a Dalmatian dog mixed with a Hotot bunny! I’m an energetic guy and love to play and explore! I love the outdoor play area, but I hope to find an indoor home where I’ll be safe but still have lots of exploring space. Being inside means I’ll also be closer to the fridge where I know yummy veggies and fruit treats are stored! I hope to see you down here soon! My ID number is A428861.

See my video! My name is Chewy and I’m very eager to meet you! I’m not shy at all and although I do like to chew things like all rabbits do, your things are safe as long as I’ve got my own toys. I’m a friendly and easy-going guy so we could share toys, too. I really love to explore but it’d be great to share my adventures with someone else, hopefully you! My ID number is A428552.

See my video! Hello! My name is Sunny and I’m a copper-haired American rabbit. I’m as warm as the sun so be prepared for some Sunny-disposition! I’m a pretty active gal and will keep exploring until I’m satisfied that I’ve looked at every nook and cranny.  After all the playing, I’ll sometimes be in the mood for some pets and it’d be great if you were there to share that moment with me! My ID number is A430128.

See my video! Hi! My name is Rascal and I’m a silvery-gray Lop.  I am always very excited to see visitors and my energy level stays high while playing outdoors.  I really love to run around and do laps in the corral so if I see the door open, you can count on me trying to find my way out! If you’re looking for some adventure, then I’m your guy! Come visit soon! My ID number is A434326.

Guinea Pigs

PHS/SPCA normally has a variety of Guinea Pigs available for adoption. The adoption fee for a guinea pig is only $15. Guinea pigs are gentle rodents that live up to seven years.

Cavy Spirit rescues guinea pigs from all over and places them for adoption. The web site includes a wealth of information on caring for these cute critters!

Howdy, I’m Gizmo, an unaltered male tricolor Guinea Pig. I was found as a stray so the kind folks here at the shelter don’t know my age. I am friendly, vocal, curious, independent with high energy. I am rated for a first time pet owner. Did you know that Guinea pigs are born with fur and with their eyes open?!  Come visit and please reference my ID A431691.

Hamsters

PHS/SPCA often has hamsters available for adoption. The adoption fee for a hamster is only $10. Hamsters are nocturnal rodents and have a life span of up to three years.

If you'd like a little furry, scurrying creature in your life come talk to an adoption counselor today.

Good day my dear friends our names are Clave and Auto we are unaltered female Hamsters with brown/white fuzzy fur. We like to get up close and personal with the camera and say hi to all of our fans. We were found stray in a field and now are looking for our forever home where we will be looked after. To check us out, ask for ID#: A422496 and A422497. We've been adopted! Visit or call to see if another hamster is available for adoption.

We do our best to update this page regularly but we cannot guarantee every animal shown here is still available.

To adopt an animal, please visit the shelter in person to meet with a customer service representative and the animal. You can download a small animal adoption profile and bring it with you to the shelter. Adoption hours are 11 am to 7 pm on the weekdays and 11 am to 6 pm on the weekends. (Note that it is often not possible for our staff to complete adoptions for visitors arriving less than an hour before our posted closing times.)

Our staff is busy taking care of the animals and making matches, therefore we are unable to answer inquiries about individual animals over email.
