Building A Better Future for rabbits in Connecticut
Building A Better Future for rabbits in Connecticut
In March 2024, Everybunny Counts opened the first standalone, licensed domestic rabbit rescue facility in Connecticut.
Since then, we have rescued nearly 300 rabbits.
Our 2,200 square foot space in Ellington was built with love and hope. Today it houses 15 to 20 adoptable rabbits, while more than 40 others wait safely in foster homes for their turn.
We are full.
And now we have the opportunity to grow.
An additional 2,800 square feet would allow us to create a sanctuary room, a medical and isolation unit, a nursery for baby bunnies, space for emergency intakes, and room to host the fundraisers that sustain our mission.
This expansion means fewer rabbits turned away.
It means faster medical care.
It means more second chances.
We cannot do this without you.
Help us make room for the next rabbit who needs us.

📍Ellington, Connecticut
Serving Connecticut and the greater New England area
Everybunny Counts Rabbit Rescue was established as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in 2016. We began as a small, independent rescue in Naugatuck, and later moved to Bristol, Connecticut, where we operated out of the historic J H Sessions and Sons clock factory downtown. When the building was sold in the winter of 2021, we continued our mission through a dedicated network of foster homes.
In December 2023, supported by our incredible community and a generous grant from AEFCU, we opened a the first state-licensed rabbity rescue facility in Ellington, Connecticut. This space has given us a fresh start, a permanent home, and the ability to help even more rabbits in need.
Everybunny Counts is led by a strong, passionate, all-women operational team. Our board, including our president Becky and vice president Kristin, is powered by heart, resilience, and an unshakeable commitment to animal welfare. Their leadership is strengthened by dozens of volunteers who show up every week to clean, transport, foster, educate, fundraise, and fight for rabbits who cannot speak for themselves.
Over the past ten years, through the work of this powerful team and the dedication of our volunteers, we have rescued and adopted out more than ONE THOUSAND rabbits to loving families. Every bun who comes through our doors receives safety, care, compassion, and the chance to find a loving forever home.
Our rescue is appointment only to ensure the safety and comfort of our rabbits and volunteers.
Please contact us to schedule your visit, meet adoptable buns, or drop off donations.
