Rabbits for Sale in Your Area

It's not always easy to find rabbits for sale in your area! So, consider these suggestions to help you find your chosen rabbit or breed.

1) Check the State-by-State Rabbit Breeder Near You listings here on Raising-Rabbits.com

2) Check our Rabbit Classifieds page.

Our Rabbit Classifieds page includes 30-day listings for rabbits for sale and rabbits wanted.

3) Look for a rabbit at your local feed store or pet shop

Even if they have no rabbits at the time, they might have a lead on a reputable rabbit breeder in your town.

4) Search the American Rabbit Breeders Association (ARBA) website. Or for those in the UK, search the British Rabbit Council website.

The ARBA has an ARBA Breeders listing which includes a great number of member breeders, including the state where the breeder lives, contact information, and the breeds each breeder raises. 

The BRC maintains a Breeder Directory on their website. If the breed you are searching for is not represented, you can at least contact the organization for further guidance.

5) Search the national rabbit breed club website.

Nearly every breed recognized by the ARBA has a national rabbit breed club. Our All Rabbit Breeds page contains links to these breed clubs, if we could find the information.  Many of these breed websites also include a breeders listing, including location of breeders by state. 

6) Attend an ARBA (or BRC) rabbit show.

ARBA-sanctioned shows occur throughout the year in every state and even internationally. You are sure to find a breeder of your desired breed, OR someone who knows where you can find your desired breed of rabbit.

7) Obtain a rabbit from a local animal shelter.

Just so you know, we've discovered that 'rabbit overpopulation' is actually a myth perpetrated by animal rights organizations. But, your local animal shelter might have a few rabbits available.

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.

If your local shelter has a no-kill policy, be extra careful. The problem isn't the 'no kill' philosophy, by itself. The problem is an unwillingness to euthanize a sick rabbit for which there is no hope of recovery. Such a rabbit should not remain in the pet rabbit pool. Sneezing rabbits fall into this category. Be wise - avoid any rabbit with moisture around the nose, as well as any rabbit housed in proximity to that rabbit.

8) Search the Internet.

Use Google or another search engine to search for the type of rabbit you're looking for (include your location in your search term), or use Craigslist, for example.

(Regrettably, some animal activists in some areas have nothing better to do with their time than haunt the Craigslist rabbits for sale postings and flag them all for take-down. We're not sure when Craigslist is going to wake up to this abuse of their service, but until then, that's why we maintain listings of rabbits for sale in your state - click here.)

9) You could even try the old-fashioned way...

Ask around! Word-of-mouth may yield some good information. Check your newspaper's classified ads section, or the Pennysaver or similar classified circular.

10) Want to buy a pet rabbit of a particular breed?
