Over the past 25 years, House Rabbit Network has grown tremendously, rescuing thousands of bunnies and placing them in loving, indoor forever homes. Our commitment to education and outreach remains strong, and we continue to provide exceptional care to rabbits in need, rescuing bunnies across the Northeast.
We will be hosting a few speakers during dinner as well as a silent auction, a robust sweepstakes table, a photo contest with prizes, and a HRN gift shop. We hope to celebrate with you while honoring the humans (& the bunnies) who have brought us to this point.
This milestone event is a time to reflect on our journey, honor the bunnies and people who have made it all possible, and look ahead to the future of rabbit rescue. Expect an evening of celebration, community, and bunny love—with delicious food, special guests, and more!

Photo Contest
Is your bunny a ham for the camera? Is your bunny on their way to fame & fortune? Is your bunny deserving of a blue ribbon?
If you answered “YES!” to any of the above questions, then you’re in luck! HRN is hosting a photo contest during our Anniversary Gala! The rules are simple – submit a photo for 1 of the 3 categories (Most Disapproving Bun, Best Bunny Butt, and Most Fatal Dead Bunny Flop) before April 25th here. Then, during the event, our distinguished guests will be voting for their favorites in all 3 categories. If your photo is chosen for 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place – you and your bunny will win big!
