2021 Midwest BunFest Rescue Partners

Together is Better.
There are so many wonderful organizations throughout the world serving their local communities through animal rescue and education efforts. We love building relationships and collaborations with these animal rescue organizations.
 
Midwest BunFest is a helpful way for OHRR to build a community of these animal rescue organizations, both small and large. We hope to create a network of like-minded groups in order to collaborate on rescue efforts, share best practices, provide support, and partner on events.
 
OHRR believes that by meeting and working together, animal rescue organizations will continue to grow, based on shared knowledge and experiences. This will allow each organization to reach beyond their local communities and contribute to the well-being of even more animals.

A Home for EveryBunny

A Home for EveryBunny is a non-profit foster-based rescue, and the only exclusive house rabbit rescue in Iowa. Cats and dogs aren’t the only animals to end up in shelters. Rabbits are the third most common animal to end up in a rescue. Unfortunately, while many shelters are doing their best, rabbit care is much different than that of cats and dogs and can leave rabbits in shelters without the specialized care they need. We provide the specialized care that rabbits need for their health and success through our network of foster homes. We also provide personalized attention to each adopter, so that they can find the pet that will best fit their home for years to come.

A Home for EveryBunny will not be in physical attendance at MWBF, but we invite you to read more about them at the following links.
