Rabbit Foster Carer Volunteer

We are looking for volunteer foster carers to provide a safe, calm and loving temporary home for rabbits.

These rabbits have either been signed over to Raystede and could benefit from a home environment until they are adopted, or they are part of our Break Away scheme. The length of fostering varies depending on the individual rabbit’s needs but is usually for around 3 months or until the rabbit finds a new home.

During this time, we ask foster carers to provide all the care and attention that an owner would. Raystede will supply all the food, equipment and enclosures that you’ll need to foster rabbits.

The aim of the role is to give a high standard of care to these rabbits, by providing an environment for them to exhibit their natural behaviours and the monitoring/treatment of their health.

Looking after the rabbits and knowing what difference you’re making to someone’s life who may be in a vulnerable position can be highly rewarding.
