In honor of Queen Dolly, we’re sharing a little sunshine of our own: our sweet Dolly the rabbit, named after the icon herself. Dolly Parton spent a lifetime reminding us to lead with kindness, find joy in the little things, and always be unapologetically ourselves. So today, we’re celebrating her beautiful spirit. As Dolly herself said: “Find out who you are and do it on purpose.” Rest easy, Queen Dolly. Thank you for filling the world with so much music, laughter, generosity, and light. We’ll keep spreading a little sunshine for you. • • • #ghrs #georgiahouserabbitsociety #dollyparton #dolly #nonprofit

Four years. That’s how long 10 of our rabbits have been waiting for someone to choose them. Four years of watching other rabbits leave for their forever homes. Four years of celebrating birthdays in a shelter. Four years of hoping that each visitor might finally be their person. While these 10 are our longest residents, they’re not alone. 🐰 10 rabbits have been waiting 4+ years 🐰 6 rabbits have been waiting 2+ years 🐰 33 rabbits have been waiting over a year 🐰 40 rabbits have been waiting less than a year Every single one of them has a unique personality, endless love to give, and deserves a home of their own. If you’ve ever thought about adopting a rabbit, this is your sign to give the overlooked ones a chance. If you can’t adopt, sharing this post could help the right person find the bunny they’ve been looking for. Let’s make sure this is the last year these sweet rabbits spend waiting. ❤️🐇 • • • #AdoptDontShop #RabbitRescue #AdoptARabbit #RescueRabbit #ShelterRabbit ForeverHome

Baby Bunny Update!!! If you missed our previous posts about these little potatoes let me fill you in! This family of 7 was brought to us all the way from Chattanooga a few weeks ago, since then they have open their eyes and they’re growing like weeds! They’re becoming more active and curious every single day! We absolutely love watching them grow and seeing their little personalities start to shine. Of course we love sharing cute videos, but we also want to share what goes on behind the scenes. Saying “yes” to a family of 7 rabbits comes with the financial responsibility of getting them ready for adoption. Just in basic vet care alone the total will be nearly $2000 for these guys, we have $690 to go until their vet fund is completely covered!On top of that, it costs approximately $2 per rabbit, per day for their daily needs: food, water, veggies, etc. That’s $14 per day just in this little nursery pen. So while these little faces may look like nothing but cuteness, there’s a significant investment behind every rescue we take in. $1,750 in veterinary care + daily food and care expenses + countless hours of work is what it takes to get this family ready for their forever homes. We’re incredibly grateful we have the ability to step in when situations like these arise. But we can only keep saying yes because of the support of our community. If you’d like to help us care for these babies and the many other rabbits counting on us, every donation no matter the size helps our rescue tremendously. • • • #georgiahouserabbitsociety #ghrs #rabbitrescue #rabbits #babybunny

6 babies + mom * $250 = $1750 to get these guys ready for adoption!

The fearsome, ruthless, nightmare-inducing… wabbit. 🐇 • • • #georgiahouserabbitsociety #ghrs #rabbitrescue #rabbits #bunnies

Meet Howard! Back in April Howard was transferred to us from Cobb county animal services. When he arrived he looked pretty rough (swipe to see). A Rex rabbit like Howard should have a coat that’s short, plush and one of the softest things you’ve ever felt. If you’ve ever pet a Rex rabbit you know exactly what I’m talking about! That softness can disappear when the rabbit has been outside and neglected for a long period of time. Fast forward a few months and look at him now! His coat is beautiful, the mats are gone and his amazing rex softness has returned! Howard is feeling like a whole new bunny and he’s coming out of his shell more and more every single day! • • • #ghrs #georgiahouserabbitsociety #rexrabbit #rexbunny #rabbitrescue This is Howard a couple of months ago, he’s looking better and his coat is starting to recover! This is Howard a few weeks after he got to us, you can see how rough his coat was!

La & Pacey are still looking for their forever home! Some rabbits have a story that reminds you just how much they deserve a happily ever after. La and Pacey are two of those rabbits. Pacey was found outside in Marietta in 2021 and was adopted that June. About a year later, he was bonded with La, one of the rabbits rescued from a hoarding situation of 150 rabbits in 2021. Sadly, in 2025, they were returned to us when their family developed an allergy. They once again found themselves waiting for a home. We don’t separate bonded pairs, so these two are a package deal. Bonded rabbits often stay at the shelter much longer than single rabbits, simply because people tend to overlook the idea of bringing home two. But trust us, bunnies are like potato chips... you can’t have just one! Two rabbits can keep each other company, provide comfort and companionship, and watching a bonded pair together is incredibly rewarding🥹 • • • #ghrs #georgiahouserabbitsociety #rescuerabbit #bondedpair

🚨 Cyclospora & Your Rabbit: What Every Bunny Parent Should Know 🥬🐰 You may have seen recent news about the Cyclospora outbreak affecting multiple states. Here’s the good news first: 💚 Rabbits cannot get cyclospora. Cyclospora cayetanensis is a human-specific parasite, and research has not shown that it infects rabbits. Your bunny is not at risk of catching cyclospora from contaminated produce. So why are we talking about it? Because rabbits eat fresh vegetables every day, and the same leafy greens you’re preparing for your rabbit may also be handled in your kitchen. This is a great reminder to practice safe produce handling, for your health and your bunny’s overall food safety. 🐇 Fresh Produce Safety Tips: 🥬 Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly before serving (keep an eye out for our veggie wash recipe post coming soon). 🔪Remove any damaged or bruised areas where germs can collect. 🧺 Keep produce refrigerated and separate from raw meat. 🧼 Wash your hands, cutting boards, knives, and bowls before and after preparing vegetables. 🚫 Never use soap, bleach, or household cleaners on produce. While washing doesn’t guarantee the removal of every Cyclospora parasite, it does reduce dirt and many other contaminants and remains an important food safety habit. 💕 Bottom line: Your bunny is safe from cyclospora, but keeping a clean produce routine helps protect the whole family. • • • #rabbit #rescuerabbit #ghrs #georgiahouserabbitsociety #nonprofit

A hoppily ever after for Gaston ( now called Rascal )!! 🐰✨ One of our favorite things is getting little updates from our adopters and seeing our GHRS rabbits thriving in their forever homes! Every photo, every video, and every glimpse into their happy new lives reminds us why we do what we do. Rescue work isn’t always easy, but seeing a rabbit safe, loved, and truly at home makes every bit of it worth it. Thank you to our adopters for giving these sweet bunnies the happy endings they deserve and for letting us be a little part of their new lives. These updates mean more to us than you know • • • #georgiahouserabbitsociety #ghrs #rabbitrescue #rabbits #bunnies
