Looking for a website, where people want to adopt a pet

Can anybody recommend a website (Japanese ok), were people looking for a pet? I already know the know Ark, but they only have cats and dogs. I´m searching a new home for one of my rabbits.

I´m a german girl living in the center of Tokyo, but my true love belongs to the countryside of Japan (especially Chiba and Hokkaido). I love traveling in Japan and explore hidden areas.
I want to help people with my articles to get in touch with the Japanese culture and all the beautiful places you can explore.

Besides traveling around, I love trains, handcraft and my little rabbits.

    Perhaps contact PochitamaKai which adopts out dogs and cats, but may provide information regarding adopting out other animals. See their website - http://www7b.biglobe.ne.jp/~inu-neko/ Your profile indicates you live in Tokyo. Are you still located there? Consider posting on Tokyo Notice Board or Craigslist Tokyo. Both have pet listings.

    You could post it on some of the Facebook groups for expats!

    You can join to some Facebook groups for gaijins (eg Gaijinpot) or post it on Tokyo Craigslist.

    Tokyo Craigslist was going to be my first suggestion too. I am a member of a few Japan based Facebook swap pages but I just checked the guidelines and they don't allow rehoming or giving away animals unfortunately. Honestly I'd say the easiest thing to do is get your friends to check with people they know and see if anyone is interested in a new furry friend! Sometimes just checking in the circles of people you know can find a good home for a pet.

    I also recommend Facebook, just because you can see a bit more information about the people there so your rabbit can go to someone seemingly more trustworthy :)

    Thank you for all the answers. I´ve found a new owner through Craiglist, but also realized that it can be very difficult to find a Japanese person who would adopt pets. Seems like it is not very common to do this.

How well does your home country insulate homes compared to here?

One thing I struggle with is the lack of insulation in Japanese homes, with summers often feeling like you're living in a sauna and winters feeling like outside is the same temperature as inside. In saying that, my home country isn't fab with insulation either. They're still very much a nation of single paned windows and minimal stuff in the walls to regulate temperature well. Does your home country do insulation well compared to here?
