If you guys havent heard of it already, Rabbits Require Rights are a group who are giving rabbits a voice and improving rabbit welfare. There are also undercover bunnies investigating and exposing pet shop conditions.
"Today's the day that us pesky little bunnies are meeting with SNP MEP Alyn Smith to discuss our campaign
Exciting times, he works tirelessly for animal welfare & environmental issues so will be a great voice for the plight of our rabbits.
As you can see he was quite smitten during his visit to Buddies Bunny Rescue last summer.
For the Buns ♥" -RRR
From last year when he came and visited Buddies Bunny Rescue
a little bit more about-
"Giving Rabbits a voice in Scotland, lobbying the Scottish Parliament to end pet shop sales & unregulated breeding of rabbits & for better legislation governing their welfare because Rabbits Require Rights too!
