Tyler
Hi, I’m Tyler! I'm a super sweet and super friendly 2 year old male Dwarf Rabbit and I was picked up as I was out exploring NE DC, looking for food and hiding from dogs! I'm a really social, friendly guy and I like people and gentle affection. Once I get to know you, I'll happily let you pick me up as well! I think I could live in a home with kitties as long as they know I'm not their prey, and really I'm a social butterfly. Carrots and spinach are my favorite foods. Come down and meet me today!

Silka
Hi, I'm Silka! I'm a 3 year old male Dwarf Rabbit and I'm in the shelter because my owners were moving and just couldn't bring me along. :( I'm a shy, peppy little guy who takes a little while to totally warm up to new people, but when I do I'm really a sweet, loving bunny companion! Come by and meet me today!

Flash
Hi, I'm Flash! I'm a sweet, cuddly rabbit and I was found exploring Gallatin Street in NW DC, looking for my new forever family! I'm a sweet, curious guy who really loves to lay around and leisurely enjoy the day! I've got a pair of pretty, striking eyes, and I'm pretty comfortable in my own fur. Oh and I really love hay! Come by and meet me today before I flash you by!

Billy
Hi, I'm Billy! I'm a brown Dwarf Rabbit and my dove pal and I were found in boxes in the parking garage of Children's Hospital. I guess our owner didn't want us anymore! I'm a sweet little rabbit who really likes people (pet me anytime!) and I'm always pretty curious. They also say I'm as adorable as they come. Come down and meet me today, pretty please with a carrot on top?

Winston
Hi, I'm Winston! I'm an adult parakeet (over 8 months, they can't tell much more than that!) and I'm in the shelter because my owner left the state and abandoned me. :( I'm a laidback guy who prefers low light and a laidback, cozy home environment. I don't talk too much, except when I'm nervous, and I'll happily rest on your shoulder or finger. Come down and see me today!

Chunk
Hi, I’m Chunk! I'm a peppy, energetic, spunky rabbit with a unique, pretty coat! I'm in the shelter because my owner thought I was a bit too aggressive for affection. But I really like being petted! I am always in the mood to check out, smell, inspect, explore everything around me, including you! Though I do like being petted, I like it being on my terms, but don't worry cause I make it easy by pushing my head up under your hand. Oh and I just looove carrots. Can we go home together today?
