Friends of Rabbits, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit rabbit rescue group, has been dedicated to saving rabbits since 1997. As the largest domestic rabbit rescue in Washington DC/Maryland/Virginia, we provide a safe haven for house rabbits from crowded shelters, stray domestic rabbits, and those rescued from hoarding situations. We partner with rabbit rescues locally and all across the U.S. Together, we can give these rabbits the loving homes they deserve.
