This month we’re highlighting something crucial for any rabbitry that values professionalism and animal welfare, a Sales Day Policy.

Our policy ensures appointments are serious and well-coordinated, which helps us keep things running smoothly and safely for everyone involved.
Here’s how it works:

• A $20 deposit is required to book your appointment.

• Once your deposit is received, we add your appointment to the calendar and remove your rabbit from the availability list.

• This simple step shows the buyer’s commitment and allows us to dedicate time and resources to that sale.

We use Square, which allows us to take credit or debit cards via text, email, or in person on Sales Day.

🐇 Handling Policy: Why Children Can’t Hold the Rabbits (Yet)

When purchasing a rabbit, please note our policy:

We complete the inspection in front of you, and adults may handle the rabbits, but children are not permitted to hold them.

This helps prevent escapes and injuries to both the rabbits and the children. In the past, we’ve seen well-meaning kids accidentally drop rabbits, resulting in scratches, fright, or even potential injury. A startled rabbit can bolt fast, and that means a pause in the sale while we catch a loose rabbit!

Once you’re home and the rabbit has had time to adjust, that’s the perfect time for children to start bonding. Rabbits are prey animals, they’re naturally cautious and need a calm, quiet introduction to new surroundings. They also have very sensitive digestive systems, so any sudden change in diet or environment can cause illness.

For these reasons, we don’t offer refunds or guarantees once a rabbit leaves our care.

That said, our New Zealand rabbits are hardy, friendly, and quick learners, they can even be litter trained and learn their names. They thrive in low-stress environments, cooler temperatures, and on a balanced diet:

• ~16% protein pellets

• ~18% fiber

• A daily handful of hay (buying directly from a farmer often saves money)
