The Easter aftermath…

Abandoned rabbits

So, remember that thing we said about how rabbits purchased at Easter time are usually abandoned shortly after the novelty wears off? Well, Easter was just over two months ago, and here is the sad reality of why we try to spread the message of not purchasing rabbits as Easter gifts.
Six of these rabbits are waiting for rescue at Hamilton Animal Control. The other two are in a high-volume shelter in Quebec waiting for rescue…all of which we have been asked to try to help. These are just a few of the hundreds of stray/abandoned/surrendered rabbits in shelters all over Southern Ontario and beyond right now. It really sucks that this happens year after year, but we’re gonna keep spreading the message, and hopefully you will too…
But, what can you do to help right now, you ask? Become a Ladybird foster home! We need your help to get these bunnies out of the shelters and into safety.
When you sign up to be a Ladybird foster home, we provide all food, litter, toys, enclosure and vet care. You just provide the love and time it takes for these lovely bunnies to find their forever homes.
Contrary to popular belief, rabbits are not the simplest animal to care for, hence why they are so easily abandoned. But with a bit of education, patience and proper care, rabbits make wonderful foster, and forever pets!
