Shelters In Crisis!!
Shelters across the country are in crisis right now, overloaded with unwanted rabbits who are in danger of being euthanized. Blame it on Easter "impulse purchases" or simply the amazing reproductive capabilities of rabbits, but once again this year, If you can find room in your home, please consider helping your local shelter or rescue by adopting or fostering a bunny in need - you'll be saving a life. Literally.


Easter And Bunnies Don't Mix

Please Don't Give Pets As Gifts!!
Shelters and rescues are inundated with animals that were given as gifts to people who didn't really want them and don't know how to take care of them. They expect this year to be no different, beginning on the day after Christmas. Please don't give a live animal as a gift - give a stuffed plush toy instead, or consider making a donation to a rescue or shelter in someone's name as a gift. Just please don't give a live animal as a gift - it requires a lifelong commitment to the pet, and too often they get shortchanged. Thanks!!

Don't Know How To Find A Bunny Vet?

Finding a rabbit-savvy vet to treat your rabbit is very important. Rabbits are exotic animals requiring specialized care and not all vets are qualified to treat rabbits. When sick, a rabbit's health can deteriorate very rapidly, so finding a vet before you need one is critical.

It's always wise to know beforehand who you can turn to in times of medical need for your bunny. To search for vet listings, please go here. Please read the following documents and keep in mind some advice when calling potential vets to interview them:
  • Explain that you want to ask the vet a series of questions and ask them to call you back at their convenience to talk. Often the vet's office is busy and you shouldn't expect them to drop everything to talk to you - after all, there might be an animal there who really needs their attention.
  • There are some questions the receptionist may be able to answer for you, such as how many rabbits see the vet on average in a given amount of time - ask if the receptionist has the time to answer a few questions before just starting, because the office may be busy.
