New Mexico House Rabbit Society is a small collection of dedicated volunteers working to help rabbits who need homes in New Mexico, with a special focus on the Albuquerque area. We are also an official chapter of House Rabbit Society.
We assist local animal shelters, especially Albuquerque Animal Care, with their rabbit program by
- providing volunteers to help care for the rabbits at the shelter
- providing educational materials to provide to rabbit adopters
- rescuing rabbits when we have space in our foster program
- providing training to shelter staff on rabbit care and adoptions
- helping to publicize the rabbits at the shelter

March Bunny of the month - Bob
Bob is located in Petco Westside. While in his cage he awaits your companionship and the second you open the door he's right there begging for a petting. Bob will make a great member of the family; won't you come visit Bob today and see if he's right for you? He hopes you will come to visit him as he really likes people; Bob is very calm and friendly. You may notice Bob had sustained a past injury to his nose while he was on loose on the streets. The injury has completely healed but did leave a slight scar - no biggie!
