Let's Get the Vote Out to Stop Whole Foods from carrying Pet Rabbits!
ORGANIZATION: House Rabbit Society
Please visit the new page to apply.
Hello everyone,
This is a nationwide event hosted by the House Rabbit Society to stop Whole Foods from carrying Pet Rabbits in their meat section. Come and pass out flyers and comment cards to their customers to vote "no rabbit." We're out to make sure people are aware of what is happening and have a say in it. The Easter Bunny the one with the white fur and pink eyes is there. My own rabbit - Kringle could be in their store. Rabbits are Pets not food.
There will be lots of cute rabbit picture, balloons and Easter Candy to pass out. Let's have fun!
If you can't assist in this way please fill out a comment card at Whole Foods and place your vote! Visit Change.org/WholeFoodsRabbits or inform a manager for them to stop selling rabbit. RabbitAdvocacyNetwork.org also has a lot of information.
If you can stop by and have words of encouragement. Believe me that would be greatly appreciated! I would love so see you there!
We've had great success with the other 3 events. We ARE making a difference!
Thank you so much!
Patti Cora

Mission Statement
Rabbits are wonderful family pets!
Description
Many grocery stores across the US are now selling pet rabbits as fresh/frozen meat. Whole Foods is on our list "1st" to stop this and then others. They are Pets - Californians (my buddy Kringle is one) and New Zealands (Handsome at the Red Door Animal Shelter). These rabbits have never been "wild." WF's claims wild rabbit is too "gamey" so they sell domestic pets. Their "program/qualifications" are not being adhered to by their supplier. This group is out to stop this absurd practice and stop all grocery stores to carry them.
