Recently we have been inundated with baby rabbits as irresponsible pet owners have bred their rabbits. Three rabbits were given up by their owners into our care, these later turned into 17 as both females gave birth within a few days of each other.
One of the main reasons why we castrate males and home check individuals is to prevent this, we pick up the pieces of an irresponsible pet industry driven by money.
There are tens of thousands of rabbits sat in rescue centres looking for good homes, yet the pet industry and irresponsible owners continue to breed pets.
