The holiday season will be here before you know it, and that means it's time to start thinking about those greeting cards and social media posts! Get a professional portrait of your furry family member to spread the holiday cheer! Each appointment includes a gentle brushing, nail trim, gland cleaning, and two professional high resolution digital photos along with a special goodie bag of toys. The digital photos will be sent by email approximately 1-2 weeks after the event. Appointments are limited; proof of RHDV2 vaccination required.

Times are tough. With some families facing the hard decision of rehoming their rabbit due to the rising costs of living, House Rabbit Society would like to help by hosting a monthly Rabbit Essentials Pantry. In doing so we hope to support those in our community who are struggling the most as well as help keep the rabbit community happy and healthy.

Potential items available include food pellets, hay, litter pellets, litter boxes and toys. Items are first come first serve and no particular product is guaranteed.

In keeping the cost of rabbit care low, we hope to keep families together and rabbits out of the shelter!

Every 1st Saturday of the month, come see some of the adoptable HRS rabbits at Walnut Creek Petco! To streamline the adoption process, we recommend taking our Rabbit Care 101 class in advance. We can’t wait to see you there!

Booking reservations for holiday boarding open on September 1st at 10am. Traveling for the holidays and need care for your rabbit while you’re away? We will be opening additional boarding runs to accommodate even more rabbits during this busy season. All food, greens, toys, and supplies are provided to keep your rabbit happy and healthy during their stay. We hope to see you (and your rabbit) this holiday season!

At House Rabbit Society we are celebrating the joy pets bring into our lives. Come enjoy an afternoon of light refreshments while painting a custom tote bag of your beloved pet and meeting some of our BUNderful adoptable rabbits.

This event will be held at our facility located at 148 Broadway in Richmond CA.

Price is $40 per person to be purchased before the event.
