Meet Dodgeball, our sporty and outgoing boy who came to HRS from the Napa County Shelter. Dodgeball loves all physical activity, whether it is throwing a ball into his water dish or running zoomies around your feet, this little athlete loves to be active and engaged. He has ben described as #LiterallyTheGreatestBunnyEver. Check out what Dodgeball’s foster has to say about him:
“Dodgeball is incredibly curious and loves being part of whatever is happening around him. He likes to walk alongside his foster mom and has become especially interested in following our dog around. He also loves being near our kids. If someone is sitting on the floor doing a puzzle, you can almost guarantee Dodgeball will be right there in the middle of it, checking everything out.
His foster mom has also been so impressed with how clean and tidy he keeps his space and how happily he can free roam for hours. He is definitely curious — we’ve caught him investigating under all of our furniture and the baseboards a few times! — but he isn’t destructive at all and has been the perfect little house guest.
One of my favorite things about him is his morning zoomies and binkies. He gets so excited and happy, and it’s impossible not to smile watching him.
I really think Dodgeball would thrive in a home where he can freely roam and be part of the family. And based on how much he enjoys our dog, I think he may especially love a home with another animal. He’ll happily hop over to our dog, lay right next to him, or even initiate a little play session. He is such a sweet, curious, happy little guy, and we are absolutely smitten with him. ❤️”
Dodgeball is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated against RHDV2 (vaccine needs to be administered annually). House Rabbit Society recommends all rabbits see a rabbit-savvy veterinarian once a year.
Submit an adoption application for Dodgeball at houserabbit.org. House Rabbit Society is located in Richmond, California, just north of San Francisco. Questions? Email rabbit-center@houserabbit.org and we’ll be happy to talk more with you!

Save Shelter Animals
Hundreds of homeless dogs and cats get a second chance to meet their new families at this event. But for many, their journey to get here isn’t short or easy. Many need surgeries, medication, special food, time to heal, and gentle, loving care before they’re ready for adoption. You can make a life-saving donation to help animals like them get the chance of a lifetime.
