WOBURN, MA. Jan 21, 2008 – The House Rabbit Network is happy to announce that we had 137 adoptions in 2007, including single rabbits and bonded pairs. We also held 18 education events throughout Eastern Massachusetts at pet stores and fairs. On October 23, the House Rabbit Network held its second annual Flatbread fundraising event, which raised $3000 for the care of rescued rabbits in various foster homes.

In 2007, the House Rabbit Network was involved in two major rescues. Last January, we rescued 34 rabbits from a law enforcement case in Fitchburg. All of the rabbits were placed into foster care and most have now found loving, permanent homes. A second large-scale rescue effort in a retirement community in Plymouth–likely the result of rabbits being dumped into the woods–has resulted in the placement of over 25 domestic rabbits into foster care, some of which have been adopted. Many of these larger, super-friendly bunnies await their forever home and would make wonderful rabbits for families.
Rabbits are wonderful, rewarding pets. You might find that a rabbit is the perfect pet for you and your family. For general information on rabbits and their care, please read our “Bunny Basics” article found on our website www.rabbitnetwork.org. Our website contains countless other useful articles about living with house rabbits. You can also check out our pages of rabbits available for adoption and if you are considering adopting a rabbit, please call us at 781-431-1211.
The House Rabbit Network is a Massachusetts-based 501 ©3 non-profit, all-volunteer organization. We are dedicated to rescuing and finding forever homes for unwanted bunnies as well as educating the public about rabbits. We can always use more volunteers! Donations of any amount are welcome and are used to support our efforts to find loving homes for each and every bunny. Thank you for your continued support.
