Why do people put ads on preloved saying they want to buy bunnies...surely everyone knows that there are rescues nowadays???
Also...some people ask for free rabbits because they have less than desirable plans for them...food, training dogs, or even just for breeding because they think its an easy way to make money
Sad but very true. Someone my family knows (not a friend) wanted to breed rabbits to eat and was looking for some bunnies to 'start him off'. He was politely told how sick he is.
Oh my god has he not heard of Tesco's
:shock: :shock:
I think he thought it would be a way of getting cheep meat, didn't think about cost of housing, food, quality of rabbits life etc. I wonder if he would have the guts to kill the buns himself though? When it's all wraped in plastic people don't see it as an animal, to have to kill it yourself.......

:wave: No they don't. I didn't, my first buns came from a free add. It wasn't until I started searching the net for bunny advice that I came across rabbit rescues. I think when animal rescues are talked about a lot of people just think cats and dogs. Some of my family were surprised when I said i was going to a rabbit rescue. As most rescues don't advertise and quite a few are based in peoples homes the public don't know they are there. Don't be angry, some people just need a bit of advice and animal education.
