Rabbit & Small Pet Events in Long Beach, Los Angeles + Orange County
Join Bun Chia Burrow for community-focused rabbit care events throughout Southern California. From affordable RHDV-2 vaccine clinics and hands-on bonding workshops to adoption events and educational socials, we bring rabbit and small pet parents together to learn, share, and celebrate thoughtful animal care in the Long Beach, LA, and Orange County communities.
Whether you're navigating your first molt with a new bunny, looking for emergency preparedness guidance, or hoping to connect with other guinea pig and chinchilla families, our events offer expert-led learning and genuine community connection. We believe small pet care should be accessible, science-based, and rooted in the kind of warmth you'd find at a friend's house—because that's exactly where many of our events happen.
What We Offer
RHDV-2 Vaccine Clinics
Affordable rabbit vaccination with comprehensive wellness exams by trusted exotic veterinarians serving Long Beach, Los Angeles, and Orange County. Each clinic includes the Medgene vaccine series (two doses, spaced three weeks apart) and time to discuss your rabbit's specific health needs.
Educational Workshops & Socials
Learn practical rabbit care skills like emergency kit preparation, taking your bunny's temperature, DIY enrichment toy making, and recognizing signs of distress. Our hands-on workshops combine scientific knowledge with real-world application—and you'll take home supplies to get started.
