Due to a lack of foster homes (we have only one) and volunteers, as well as our Chapter Manager having to deal with health issues related to brain tumor surgery, NJHRS is not taking in any rabbits at this time.
 
However, while we have stopped taking in rabbits, the calls to place rabbits have not. In light of that, we have created an information packet and have a link on this site as to how to place a rabbit. Click here. Additionally, we have added a page to our website where we place non-NJHRS rabbits who need homes--whether from private homes, from a Good Samaritan who found a stray or from shelters who do not normally deal with rabbits. We strongly encourage you to adopt from them. They are listed here.
 
Although we are a limited rescue operation, we are an active advocacy group. We still answer email and phone inquiries (see Contact Us) and help people with advice on issues with their own rabbit--behavior, medical, bonding, litterbox training and more.

A few years ago we started the first rabbit Lower Cost Spay Neuter Program for rabbits--Spay/Neuter is for Rabbits Too! It is likely the only one in the country, certainly the only one in New Jersey and we are very proud of that. We are actively trying to recruit more participating vets to make it more accessible to those who need it. This program is available to private individuals, rescue groups and shelters. People are taking advantage of this service all the time. You can read more about it here.

Donations made to NJHRS, in addition to going to the care of our current foster and sanctuary rabbits (those whom for various reasons will never be adopted), are going to the two aforementioned programs, as well as educational materials.

We regret that we cannot be everything for everyone and can't help all the rabbits in need, but we have found a way to continue helping under our current circumstances.
