We are the Georgia House Rabbit Society (GHRS), a volunteer-based nonprofit 501(c)3 rabbit rescue organization serving the metro Atlanta area and beyond. Since our formation in 1996, we have rescued over 3500 domesticated rabbits in need. In 2010, we opened our original Rabbit Shelter in Marietta, Georgia. In September 2020, we moved to a much larger 6,500 sqft location in Kennesaw, Georgia. Our rescue is the largest rabbit specific shelter in Georgia and there are only a few like it in the country. Our stand alone facility serves multiple purposes. In addition to providing housing for our rescued rabbits, the shelter also serves as a learning center, a boarding facility, and a source for quality rabbit supplies.
We have an adoption fee of $80 for a single rabbit or $130 for an already bonded pair. This fee helps recover some of the cost of the spay and neuter for each rabbit. We have everything you will need for your rabbit at our onsite Hop Shop and all of the items we carry in our store are safe for your rabbit. Our prices are competitive or lower than pet store prices AND when you purchase at our store, you will be supporting the care for our adoptable rabbits. All profits go directly toward funding the shelter and providing vet care, food, and housing. If you choose to purchase your supplies from a pet store instead, please let us know and we can help you avoid buying unnecessary or even potentially harmful items. Our bunnies are rotated between the shelter and foster homes, so please let us know ahead of time if you are interested in a particular rabbit so we can make sure they will be at the shelter to meet you. Remember the saying that you can't judge a book by its cover? The same can be said for rabbits. They have a variety of different looks and personalities and even though you may have a certain look or size in mind, the most important part is seeing who you get along with the best. AFTER ADOPTION: We are always available for questions or concerns you have regarding your new arrival. Within 2 weeks, you can expect a follow up call from an adoption counselor to get check in on how everyone’s doing. Adopting from GHRS automatically gives you a 1 year membership which entitles you to a 10% discount on store items and discounted boarding rates at our shelter when you travel. You will also receive emailed shelter updates, rabbit care information, stories of our foster bunnies, and invitations to our special events.
