About Aurora Rex Rabbit RanchAurora Rex Rabbit Ranch is a hobby-sized rabbitry that has provided owner and manager, Karen, with over 30 years of rabbit-raising savvy learned 'on-the-job.'Karen began her career in rabbits with three small pet rabbits when she was still a teen. She found these rabbits in a pet store display window, and never looked back.Says Karen, "At the time, I couldn't think of any way I'd rather spend the few bucks in my pocket than on those beautiful rabbits. I brought home a black Dutch, a blue Polish, and a black English Spot. I was ecstatic!" A few years later Karen married a Swiss yodeler. Four kids followed, as well as countless more rabbits over the years. By then, Karen had discovered the incomparable REX rabbit with its amazingly plush fur. Since then she’s raised REX rabbits exclusively.

Aurora Rex Rabbit Ranch houses over 40 very nice rex rabbits, not counting the young stuff. Aurora rabbits actually do a bit of winning at rabbit shows, including some Best of Breeds and one Best in Show. Nevertheless our rabbits are not by any means numbered among the best, or the national breeders. Our rabbits are, however, cared for meticulously using current best practices.
On occasion, the Ranch might have either pet rabbits or show quality animals for sale. If so, we may have posted pictures of available or soon-to-be-available rabbits at Aurora Rex Rabbits. Please contact us if you need additional information.

Many thanks to our visitors for these kind remarks...
From Tammy in Texas:"This has been the most useful, friendly and informational website I have ever used. Thank you so very much. We found our pet rabbit Sunday night. People in the neighborhood where we found her say she was loose for about 2 weeks before she hopped up to me to be picked up. Your website helped us find out what kind of rabbit we found (Himalayan), what sex our rabbit is (female), how to house it, feed it and handle it (she was launching herself at us and smacking us with her front feet! - I am now the BIG BUNNY or a Hawk, whichever is needed!)."
