We are a nonprofit organization dedicated to rescuing abandoned and mistreated rabbits, finding them permanent, loving adoptive homes, and educating the public on the care of these unique and wonderful beings.

Rabbit Haven was founded in 1986 with the rescue of one special rabbit named Alice (Al) whose feet were being sold for $5 apiece. Since Alice came to live with Rabbit Haven founder Sue Brennan, over 1,000 rabbits and other small animals have been welcomed through our doors. A few have stayed and become permanent residents, but most call Rabbit Haven home for only a short time before being adopted by loving families.

We are situated on 11 1/2 acres containing orchards, pastures, two large ponds, a meandering creek, many scattered maple, cedar, willow and cottonwood trees, and over five acres of woods. 

Sue is still in the process of building the new barn and it has come a long ways in the last few years.  We now have a wonderful "HUGE" kitchen with a walk-in cooler that Sue hand built.  We have about half the runs put in with the remainder to be finished up this year.  Sue has also built a very safe and comfortable sick room, completely screened in to protect everyone from fly strike.  Now that we have all the Giant Flemish that were rescued this year from a meat farm out of the clinic room and into rabbit runs,  Sue now can start on her "dream clinic" that she has always wanted.

Right now we are home to about 100 rabbits , with an additional 14 rabbits in foster care.  Rabbit Haven also gives shelter and care to a chinchilla, two pigeons and three doves and our cat called "Bob" who was suppose to be our mouser but is more interested in laying in the sun.

Our goal is that every animal at Rabbit Haven is well loved and cared for. This requires immense amounts of time and money. If you would like to make a tax-deductible donation, please click on the "Donations" link to left.

We are in need of both volunteers and foster homes to aide in caring for these wonderful creatures.  If you would like information on how to become part of our volunteer and/or fostering team, please click on the corresponding link to the left.

We will be consistently updating information on this site as new information becomes available.  Any comments or suggestions you would like to share with us regarding the site are both welcomed and appreciated.  Please click on the link "Contact Us" to the left to share your ideas and opinions.
