RABBITS NEED OUR HELP

Donating to a rabbit rescue is a vital act of compassion that helps save the lives of one of the most vulnerable yet often overlooked animals in need. Domestic rabbits, unlike their wild counterparts, rely completely on human care and support, yet they are frequently abandoned, neglected, or rescued from situations of abuse. Rabbit rescues provide these animals with shelter, food, medical care, and a chance to find loving, permanent homes, often under dire financial constraints.
