Pet Rabbit Sales Policy

NOTICE:  As of 2007, We have decided not to sell pet Rabbits to the general public- we are sorry that we are unable to assist you in your search for a pet rabbit. 

Please try another breeder, or perhaps visit your local rabbit rescue or humane society to choose a pet rabbit.

Age of Sale Pet:  

All our pet rabbits are fully weaned and well adjusted to life without mom before they are offered for sale - please do NOT ask to purchase a pet younger than 10 weeks old-I make absolutely NO exceptions! 

Price and Payment: 

Our pet-quality rabbits are $35 each with a $10 discount for 4-H/FFA youth members.  A discount applies if multiple rabbits are purchased.  Full cash payment is expected at the time of sale.  No personal checks are accepted.

Special circumstances warrant special prices - we may have an occasional spayed/neutered rabbit for sale and of course the price will be higher.  We may also decide to part with an older or retired animal, and these older animals may be offered at a reduced price.

None of our pets are offered for free - it is not the money that is important to us (believe me, there is no profit in raising rabbits),  but your willingness to pay a reasonable price for a pet helps indicate to us that you are a seriously-committed pet owner.  Pets obtained free are oftentimes not valued as highly as a pet purchased with hard-earned or saved-up money.

HOW TO GET YOUR PET:

Our rabbitry is closed to the public but we can meet with you at other locations-

Rabbit Shows -You can meet with us at any of the Wisconsin-area rabbit shows we attend. You can find a list of rabbit shows we plan to attend by visiting our Rabbit Show website segment.  Be sure to email us ahead of time so we bring some pet rabbits to the show you plan to come to! 

In Madison - On occasion I may be able to meet with you in the east Madison or Cottage Grove areas.  Both are in south central Wisconsin. Current gas prices no longer allow me to drive more than 20 minutes away, to deliver pets - often the cost of gas costs more that the pet! 

No Shipping - I am sorry but we have never shipped pet rabbits and don't plan to. 

When you pick up your pet rabbit:

Bring a suitable carrier for your new pet!  I don't always have boxes or other containers that will securely hold your new pet on his trip home!  If you are buying a French Lop - please bring a carrier large enough!  Email us if you need help deciding how to transport your new pet!

What you get with your pet

1) bag of starter food   2) bag of grass hay  3) rabbit care instructions   4) birth certificate (pedigrees are not available for pets)

Return Policy for Pet Sales:

Buyer may return the rabbit to us, within 2 weeks of sale, for refund of the purchase price, as long as no harm has been done to the pet.  Transportation will be the sole responsibility of the pet owner!  Any pet that develops a genetic deformity, at any time, that inhibits your enjoyment of him/her, may be returned to us for a replacement animal of our choosing. (Genetic deformities have not been an issue with the lines we currently have!)

Illness

We do not sell ill pets or pets that have ever exhibited any illness- all pets sold are healthy when they leave here and we offer no returns for illness outside of our 2 week return policy.

Help and Advice

Is free for as long as you own the pet!  Feel free to contact us with any questions or if you need help.  If we don't have the answer, we will try to find it for you!  Our experience with house rabbits is limited and we can only offer advice that relates to care similar to how we raise rabbits.  Our printable booklet Basic Rabbit Care & Breeding is available for you to download at any time and offers reference on many rabbit care issues.

 

If you are purchasing a show or breeding stock rabbit as a pet, this Pet Sales Policy will not apply to your situation - visit our Sales Policy for Show and Breeding Stock
