Real Experiences
"We were recommended EGPRR by a rabbit specialist vet in Epping as a rescue center that did amazing “rabbit matchmaking”, as we’d just lost our female rabbit and needed to find her husband a new companion. The team at EGPRR are fantastic and were incredibly knowledgable about bonding rabbits, disposition and rabbit psychology. Thank you so much for your skill and care today. We really appreciate your compassion and the service that you do!"

"Wendy, Mary and the team are outstanding. They have been fantastic throughout the adoption process and have a genuine care and understanding of rabbits. Mary (who bonded these two trouble-makers!) has been so supportive throughout and I cannot thank her enough! If you want to adopt you couldn't ask for a better rescue centre!"

"I had to rehome our rabbit Star recently because of the landlord and moving issues. We decided it would be best to send Star to a better place and have a safer and loving environment than she could ever have. It was really heartbreaking and sad but I think I knew that it would be okay when Star gave me a sign to go and that she will be fine... I thank Wendy so much for accepting Star when most rescue centres were so full that we nearly lost hope. Such a lovely and friendly place to rehome and adopt rabbits✨🐰"

"Thank you all at Essex Rabbit & Guinea pig rescue for helping so many lovely bunnies. We have had our new trio from you for a few weeks now and they're settling in well. (I wish I could have taken more, but 3 was my sensible limit!)"
