In the shelter’s words
Meet Jude, an approximately two-year-old little guy with a big heart and an incredibly sweet spirit. This handsome boy has already overcome so much in his young life, and through it all, he has remained one of the happiest, sweetest bunnies you could hope to meet. Jude originally came into rescue after being found abandoned outside in the cold. By the time he was rescued, he had developed some health issues, including an old bite wound on his nose and upper left lip. He was treated for both Coccidia and syphilis and successfully recovered from both. Despite such a difficult beginning, Jude's journey toward a healthier, happier life was just getting started. Jude also had some heart abnormalities that veterinarians believed could be congenital or related to his previous syphilis infection. Because of this, his neuter required extra precautions, including careful sedation, monitoring, and an echocardiogram. Thankfully, he came through with flying colors! At a follow-up evaluation a few months later, his veterinarian found that his neurological status and heart rate were okay and did not feel additional diagnostic workup was necessary. His progress has been encouraging, and the love and care he has received in rescue have helped him along the way. But here's what we really want you to know about Jude: despite everything he has experienced, he is the sweetest, happiest little guy. His past hasn't taken away his ability to enjoy life, and he has so much love to give. He is a wonderful reminder of just how resilient these little animals can be when someone gives them the chance they deserve. Now Jude is ready for his next chapter! He is looking for a loving family who will appreciate what a special boy he is and continue giving him the safe, happy life he deserves. Because of his medical history, potential adopters should discuss his past care and any recommended monitoring with our team. Jude has already come so far, and we can't wait to see him find a family to love him for the rest of his days. If you have read our Adoption Policy and are interested in adopting Jude, please complete and submit the online Adoption Application.

Plan a visit with the source organization
We require that all of our rabbits live indoors in a minimum of a 4x4 space or free range inside the home, be fed high-quality pellets, unlimited hay and a daily salad and given plenty of attention and exercise. Adopters also commit to providing regular veterinary care. All rabbits are spayed/neutered before being adopted. In addition, the primary caregiver must be an adult. If the adopter cannot care for their rabbit, they must return it to Ohio House Rabbit Rescue. To adopt a rabbit, potential adopters must first fill out an application for a rabbit they are interested in. Then, they are interviewed by OHRR Adoption Coordinators. If their application is approved and interview is successful, they sign a contract stating that they understand our expectations for the care of their rabbit(s), that they will notify Ohio House Rabbit Rescue when the rabbit dies, and that they understand that OHRR reserves the right to remove the rabbit if we feel his/her life is endangered or if there is a violation of the adoption policy. OHRR delivers all rabbits to the home of the adopter to help the adopter set-up their new rabbitâs space and help with additional rabbit-proofing. This also helps OHRR to ensure that all rabbit housing is appropriate. To adopt a single rabbit the fee is $40. A bonded pair is $60.
