Rabbits For Sale in Your Area

Just so you know, we've discovered that 'rabbit overpopulation' is actually a myth perpetrated by animal rights organizations.

There is a dark underbelly to the 'rabbit rescue' industry. If you find a shelter with a LOT of rabbits -- PLEASE ask questions. It could be the rabbits were voluntarily surrendered. But it might happen that those rabbits were illegally 'rescued,' meaning stolen under the color or pretense of law. See 200 Rabbits - a shocking example of the lengths animal rights groups are going in order to put rabbit breeders out of business.

The animal rights gangs often stage "raids" - their word - on reputable rabbit breeders in order to obtain rabbits they can then spay, neuter, sell for big bucks, and continue the charade of 'rabbit overpopulation.' In order to raid and steal rabbits, they need to accuse breeders of being 'rabbit mills,' and they need to trump up charges of animal abuse.

If your local shelter is no-kill, be extra careful.

A very high percentage of shelter animals (some estimates go as high as 4 out of 5 rabbits) are terminally sick, especially in no-kill shelters. Treating a rabbit infected with snuffles will very quickly drain your vet budget. There is no cure for snuffles. It is our view that rabbits with snuffles should be euthanized for the well-being of the other shelter rabbits. Be wise - avoid any rabbit with moisture around the nose, as well as any rabbit housed in proximity to that rabbit.

3) Your local feed store or pet shop may have rabbits for sale now and again. Or, they might have a lead on a reputable rabbit breeder in your town.

4) The American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA) has an ARBA Breeders page, listing a great number of members, including the state where the breeder lives, contact information, and the breeds this breeder raises.

5) Nearly every breed recognized by the ARBA also has a national rabbit breed club. On our All Rabbit Breeds page, we've included links to these breed clubs, if we could find the information. Most of these breed websites also include a breeders listing, including location of breeders by state.





6) You could search the internet - do a google search for the type of rabbit you're looking for (include your location in your search term), or use Craigslist, for example.

7) You could even try the old-fashioned way - the newspaper or the Pennysaver or similar classified circular.

I don't know any reputable rabbit breeder who doesn't have rabbits, both pet rabbits and show rabbits, for sale, most of the time.

Aurora Rex Rabbit Ranch, in Port Angeles, Washington, does occasionally have standard rex rabbits available for sale as pets or for show.
