Ember’s Wildflower Animal Sanctuary and Bunny Rescue

501(c)(3) nonprofit animal sanctuary and bunny rescue

Our mission is to provide rescue and sanctuary to abandoned and unwanted domestic bunnies; to spay/neuter, vaccinate, provide veterinary care, and prepare them to be adopted into loving homes through socialization and training. To provide education and resources for current and future bunny owners and reduce cycles of surrendering unwanted animals by carefully reviewing potential adopters and ensuring good matches of humans and companion animals. For bunnies whose medical needs preclude them from adoption, we will provide lifelong sanctuary.

Our vision is for all domestic bunnies to live a long, safe, and happy life, with dignity and respect, free of homelessness and neglect. Ember’s embraces compassion and kindness for all animals while cultivating awareness of the specific need for bunny rescue both locally and throughout the region.

Domestic bunnies are the third most abandoned pet following cats and dogs. They are often dumped at shelters where many are euthanized or abandoned outside where they will not be able to survive. Most bunnies don’t make it through the first year of their life.

Bunnies are very misunderstood animals and are often viewed as good starter pets for children when in reality they have similarities to cats and dogs and are considered high maintenance pets to take care of properly. They are not meant to live their lives in cages, but wish for affection and exercise. Bunnies are social animals and desire a family to call their own, they can actually die from loneliness. Many are bought for Easter presents and then abandoned or neglected. They deserve loving homes that understand their needs so that they can thrive and be the amazing companions that they are!

Ember's is passionate in regard to educating our community about domestic bunnies. We welcome a planned visit to the bunny barn to help clean and feed and/or spend time socializing the bunnies to ready them for forever homes.
