Adoption Process at Sweet Rose Rabbitry

---

Welcome! We’re excited about your interest in adopting a bunny from Sweet Rose Rabbitry. Our adoption process is conducted entirely online to prioritize both the privacy of our family and the well-being of our bunnies. Please note that available bunnies are PICK-UP ONLY at Jericho, NY 11753. Here’s how to get started:

Please start by reviewing our Adoption Policy thoroughly. Once you’ve read it and feel fully prepared and committed to providing a loving, responsible home for one of our bunnies, proceed to complete the online prescreen form. Links to both the policy and the form are available at the top of this page.

• Prescreen Approval: Submitting the prescreen form is necessary to be considered for adoption. We will review your submission and respond within 24-72 hours to let you know if you’re approved.
• Approval Validity: An approved prescreen form is valid for two months from the date of submission.
• Important Note: Approval does not guarantee a bunny. The full adoption process must be completed to secure one.

Stay updated on our litters and reservation dates by following us on Instagram and visiting the "Upcoming Litters" page on our website. Bunnies are available for reservation once they are 4-6 weeks old, and reservation dates will be posted before they reach four weeks of age.

• Adoption Fee: Our adoption fee typically ranges from $400 - $800+, with the average falling between $500 - $700. The fee reflects the quality of care that goes into raising these wonderful companions, as well as several other factors including age, type, size, coat color, and markings. The adoption fee is usually set a day or a few days before the litter's reservation day, allowing us to better assess the bunnies.
• Priority Reservations: Not all bunnies listed below may be available for reservation at the standard reservation time. We reserve the right to select bunnies from any litter before reservations open. Priority may be given, at our discretion, to families who have previously adopted from us. Additionally, a one-time priority reservation may be offered to individuals who were unable to secure a bunny in a previous reservation. If you are not on the list but would like to inquire about eligibility, please email us at sweetroseliny@gmail.com.

Reservation/Adoption Process: 

On the specified reservation date and time, send an email to sweetroseliny@gmail.com to reserve a bunny.

• Email Instructions: Include your preferred bunny choices in order of priority. Listing multiple choices increases your chances of reserving a bunny.
• Fairness Policy: Emails received before the designated start time will be added to the end of the list.
• Timeliness Matters: While emailing at the exact start time increases your chances, it does not guarantee a reservation due to high demand.
• Response Process: We will reach out to interested parties in the order emails were received. Our response will include information about the available bunnies and the adoption fee.
• Confirmation Window: You will have 15 minutes to confirm your reservation and place a deposit equal to half the adoption fee via Venmo.
• Payment Requirement: We currently accept only Venmo for deposits, so please ensure your account is set up beforehand.

Please visit our Available Bunnies page on our website. If bunnies are available for adoption, we can schedule a pickup date and time and reserve one for you immediately once your prescreen form is approved. The process involves::

• Deposit: A deposit of half the adoption fee is required via Venmo. Please make sure to read the Adoption Policy thoroughly before placing a deposit.
• Confirmation and Scheduling: After the deposit is received, you will receive a confirmation email. The bunny must be picked up within seven days of the deposit.

If no bunnies are available at the time, please keep an eye on our Instagram and Upcoming Litters page on website for future reservation dates.

Once we receive your deposit, your bunny reservation is secured. Welcome to the Sweet Rose Rabbitry family!

The "Go Home" date is typically scheduled when the bunnies reach eight weeks old. The remaining balance will be due in cash at pick-up, so please bring the exact amount.

Sweet Rose Rabbitry reserves the right to change any policies or pricing at any time, without prior notice.
