“Make Mine Chocolate”
March 28th, 2007 by admin
An article in Monday’s Miami Herald highlighted “Make Mine Chocolate,” a campaign by the Columbus House Rabbit Society to educate the public about the challenges of properly caring for rabbits, and to discourage giving live rabbits as Easter gifts.
Each year, unwanted, former Easter rabbits fill local rabbit rescues and humane societies (these are the lucky rabbits; others are dumped outside where they almost certainly perish).
You Can Help
A rabbit is not a toy. Do not adopt a rabbit unless you are ready to give him or her up to ten years of proper care. If you can provide a permanent home for a rabbit, please contact Fort Lauderdale’s Wildlife Care Center. (The center is currently caring for 105 rabbits!)
