Friends Of Willow - Portland Pet Shelter

Friends Of Willow

Friends of Willow is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Friends of Willow is dedicated to providing rescue, shelter, medical care, and spay/neuter services for abandoned, abused, or neglected rabbits in Southern Maine. The mission of Friends of Willow is to (1) place all of these rabbits into permanent and loving, safe indoor homes and to (2) educate the public regarding companion rabbit care, the benefits of adopting, and the importance of spaying and neutering. Friends of Willow was founded in 2011 by a group of individuals sharing a love of rabbits and with a common interest in rescuing and rehabilitating domestic rabbits. Friends of Willow is made up entirely of volunteers who dedicate time, money, and energy to move Friends of Willow toward its goals. Friends of Willow Board Members average over 10 years of experience with rabbits and many have core animal sheltering experience. Friends of Willow Members use their knowledge and skills to educate the public about proper rabbit care and sustaining a healthy relationship with rabbit family members.

Adoption Process

When and if make the decision to Adopt a rabbit from Friends of Willow, you will go through an application process. After Friends of Willow receives your application, Friends of Willow will review it and be in contact with you. A Friends of Willow Adoption Coordinator will provide you with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision whether or not a rabbit is the right addition to your household. Friends of Willows goal is to place each rabbit in a "forever home" and to do that, Friends of Willow will need to make sure bunnies are going to dedicated families, which understand the commitment involved in properly caring for a rabbit for the remainder of it's life. Adoption fees are charged to help us offset some of our costs for caring for our rabbits. They help us to ensure that our rabbits are in good health, spayed or neutered, and loved. Adoption fees include $75 for a single rabbit and $125 for a pair.
