We Care About Your Rabbits' Welfare

Beloved Rabbits aims to improve life for domestic rabbits across Scotland by reducing neglect, supporting owners and promoting rabbits as complex, long lived companions, backed by a strong, skilled volunteer and supporter community.

To achieve this, Beloved Rabbits will

Provide accommodation and safe, welfare focused care for domestic rabbits in need.

Ensure high standards of husbandry and access to appropriate veterinary treatment for every rabbit in our care.

Help owners find suitable homes for their rabbits when circumstances change.

Advance education in rabbit welfare by raising awareness of abandoned rabbits, offering clear care advice and encouraging responsible rabbit ownership across Scotland.

Our Story

Beloved Rabbits began in 2010 when David and Feona Bell started Fairly Beloved Rabbit Care, a foster based rescue created to fill a clear gap in rabbit welfare support in central Scotland. What began with a small group of foster homes has grown into a Scotland wide rabbit welfare charity with a strong volunteer team and a network of foster carers providing home based care for rabbits in need.

In 2019 the charity became Beloved Rabbits, a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SC049128). We remain Scotland’s only charity dedicated solely to rabbit rescue and welfare, providing rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming, along with bonding support, care advice and education for rabbit owners.

Today our work is delivered through our foster care network across central Scotland and our facilities in Kirkintilloch, including The Bunny Bothy, our welfare focused rabbit supply shop and advice point for owners, and our rescue support centre, The Hoppy Hub. These spaces allow us to respond quickly to welfare emergencies, support complex medical cases and prepare rabbits for life in their new homes.

Everything we do is powered by volunteers. More than one hundred people give their time as foster carers, care team members, welfare checkers, educators and fundraisers so that every rabbit in our care receives safe housing, appropriate companionship, good nutrition and access to rabbit savvy veterinary support. Together, they help us create a better future for domestic rabbits across Scotland.

Our Partnerships

Beloved Rabbits and Beloved Rabbits Welfare Services CIC are separate organisations that share a common purpose.

Beloved Rabbits focuses on rescue, rehoming and education.

Beloved Rabbits Welfare Services CIC focuses on delivering welfare-focused services for rabbit owners.

Beloved Rabbits and Beloved Rabbits Welfare Services CIC are independent organisations that share a commitment to improving rabbit welfare. The CIC reinvests its trading surplus in welfare and veterinary initiatives delivered through its own community programmes and partnerships with other like minded organisations. These activities sit alongside our rescue, rehoming and education work and contribute to better outcomes for rabbits across the wider community.
