ORGANIZATION: Friends of Unwanted Rabbits

  • 15 people are interested

Volunteers are needed to care for our rescued rabbits at our adoption center. Volunteers get the rabbits out of their cage exercise and socialization, clean the cages, litter boxes, sweep the floor, refill food, water, and hay. Volunteers are assigned a bank of 3 cages. This is a fun way to interact with rabbits.

Volunteers must be 18 years old to volunteer. Persons 14 years old and older can volunteer with a parent.

Volunteers are needed one or more days a week. The minimum time requirement is one day a week for 1.5 hours.

If interested contact us at FriendsofUnwantedRabbits@gmail.com.

Mission Statement

OUR MISSION IS TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO MAKE THE MORE COMPASSIONATE CHOICE BY ADOPTING A RESCUED RABBIT OVER BUYING ONE FROM A BREEDER. WE STAND FOR KINDNESS AND HUMANE TREATMENT FOR ALL ANIMALS AND ARE AGAINST THE USE OF RABBITS FOR MEAT, FUR AND LABORATORY TESTING. EACH YEAR THOUSANDS OF RABBITS ARE ABANDONED AT LOCAL AREA SHELTERS. RABBITS ARE THE 3RD MOST FREQUENTLY DISCARDED ANIMALS AT SHELTERS AND THE MOST OFTEN OVERLOOKED. MOST ARE DISCARDED BY THEIR OWNERS DUE TO A LACK OF UNDERSTANDING AND KNOWLEDGE OF THESE HIGHLY INTELLIGENT CREATURES. OTHERS ARE DUMPED BY IRRESPONSIBLE BREEDERS. OUR GOALS ARE TO: Increase the adoption rate of rabbits discarded at local Shelters. Increase public awareness of these highly intelligent social creatures as house pets. Educate the public on proper rabbit care. Decrease the overpopulation of rabbits through spaying and neutering. Find forever loving indoor homes for rabbits.
