Our adoption process involves the applicant to come into our store and demonstrate a full understanding of what is needed to care for the pet. We are here to educate and make sure the animal will be cared for correctly. ALL applicants must be approved by Nelly so please be patient if she is not working the day you come in. Call us or email to book in a time to meet with Nelly.

Retail Pet shop code of conduct.

Our rabbits are guaranteed to be in good health at time of adoption.
You may return the animal to us for a full refund within 7 days providing it has been examined by a veterinarian surgeon with 48 hours of purchase and found to have a disease or congenital defect which will significantly reduce the animal’s lifespan.

If the rabbit is returned to Nelly’s Ark for any other reason within 3 days of purchase you are entitled to a 75% refund of the original adoption price.

The animal has been wormed upon arrival in the store.

Our rabbits are fed Showmaster rabbit and guinea pig food, and quality oaten hay, it is best to continue with this food. Always ensure there is plenty of water, fruit and veg available

By the pet store code of practice we do not have to vaccinate rabbits at time of adoption.
There is no current vaccination for myxomatosis available in Australia, however a vaccination for calicivirus is available.
