Although anyone can view rabbits immediately, registering with Bunspace allows you to "Add a Rabbit" which gives you your own webpage with photos of your rabbit(s). Rabbit pages show their likes, dislikes, nicknames, breed as well as links to their other rabbit siblings and Bunny Buddies on the site. Registrants also have the benefit of posting in the forum, blog, posting picture and profile comment, and much more.

No. You can join Bunspace, create your rabbit's profile, write profile and picture comments, post in the forum, blog, event section, and much more. And it's all free! We do, however, have a VIB membership for members that want a few extra features and are willing to pay for them.

We are primarily focused on developing the site for all users and keeping it free. However, running a free site gets expensive so having a little income from the users interested in subscribing helps a lot. We are still making the majority of features free for everyone.

Rescues, shelters and sanctuaries automatically get a lifetime VIB membership at no cost.
