We have a very cute rabbit in our yard, but it’s eating our plants and making some messes. I tried to search online and didn’t have luck so I thought I’d try here. Is there any type of program where we can trap and release the rabbit? Preferably, I’d like someone to pick up the rabbit rather than transport it myself. I’m currently renting and the yard is already fenced in mostly so I’m hesitant to install another fence. I also want to get rid of the rabbit in a kind and as humane a way as possible.

This is the second rabbit in the area that I know of and this one is much smaller than the first so they’re procreating. I don’t think this one-time trap-and-release will solve the issue entirely. Since this is likely to be an ongoing issue, perhaps I should learn where to drop them off rather than have someone come out each time I trap one…

Thank you in advance for the help!

You might want to reach out to rabbit advocates of Portland or rose city rabbit rescue and see if they can help.
