Sunshine Rabbit Center

Serving SoCal bunnies & building community

Sunshine Rabbit Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit based in Long Beach, CA. Our mission is to help domestic rabbits and the support the families who love them. We partner with municipal shelters and fellow rescue organizations to save bunnies that have been abandoned or relinquished, or who have lost their homes. We work to match them with caring adopters who can provide a safe, loving environment where they will thrive. Learn more about adopting or view our current adoptable rabbits.

We believe in collaboration and education, and we strive to foster a diverse rabbit community. We host educational and social events and provide free information for new and experienced bunny owners. You can view and sign up for our upcoming events here. We also offer helpful services that support the ongoing success of our rabbit families, like boarding, grooming, matchmaking, and bonding. In addition, we run a shop with rabbit supplies, gifts, and fresh hay. All shop proceeds go directly to supporting our rescue mission.

We are proud to be building a welcoming environment for bunny owners of all backgrounds and experience levels. The pricing for our services and supplies is designed to be accessible for families across income levels. Our grooming and nail trim services are donation-based and available on a sliding scale. Many of our staff and volunteers are bilingual Spanish speakers and we proudly serve community members who prefer Spanish-language communication. Hablamos español!

Please note: We receive many questions from individuals who have found rabbits or who are looking for new homes for their buns. Unfortunately, we are not currently taking found or relinquished rabbits. For suggestions of other organizations who may be able to help, please see our “Rehoming Your Rabbit” page.

Our mission: committed to community

We’re so excited that you’re interested in adopting a rabbit (or rabbits) of your own! We love placing bunnies into safe, caring homes. All of our adoptable rabbits are rescues. Some have been abandoned or saved from unsafe conditions; others come from loving families who experienced serious hardship and sadly had to give them away. Rescue rabbits are waiting for you to be the hero that gives them a beautiful new life!

You can view our current adoptable rabbits and learn more about our adoption process. When you’re ready, you can also fill out an application to adopt.

Adoptions

Matchmaking & bonding

Looking for that special someone (or someones) for your rabbit? Bunnies love living in pairs, trios, and more. But they’re picky about their friends and the bonding process can be hard, long, and stressful. We’re here to help. Learn more about our matchmaking & bonding services. When you’re ready, you can also fill out an inquiry form to get the process started.

Boarding

Grooming

We know you want to leave your bunnies in good hands when you go away. Whether you’re going away for a short jaunt or a long trip, we have you covered. We provide a safe, clean, loving environment for your buns run by staff and volunteers who are all bun parents themselves. Learn more about boarding and make a reservation.

To keep them healthy and happy, rabbits need regular grooming and nail trims. Luckily our experts are ready to lend a hand. Visit our grooming page, schedule an appointment with our professional groomer for a full grooming, or just stop by any time during our open hours for a nail trim and gland cleaning. Your bunnies can also get groomed while they board. Bunny spa day!
