Please share. This wonderful boy, Paddington is much larger than each of his parents. His dad and pregnant mom were rescued outdoors, during the worst heat wave of summer 2023. At one month old, he weighed just under 1 pound. Today he’s tipping the scales at 9 pounds! Many pet shops and breeders tell people that they are purchasing a “dwarf” rabbit. Please don’t take any advice from pet shops or breeders. To them, rabbits are objects to monetize. Contact a rescue group who will tell you the truth and fully educate you. To us, they are significant members of the family; no matter what size they are! #notjustforeaster #stopdumpingrabbits #stopabandoningrabbits #adoptdontshop #bunniesofinstagram #easter #easterbunny #rabbitsofinstagram #rabbitsofinstagram #bunniesofinstagram #rescuedrabbits #rescuerabbit #bekindtoallkinds #stopcrueltytoanimals #stopanimaltesting #stopabandoningrabbits #bekindtorabbits #furfreenyc #rabbitrescueandrehab #stoprabbitbreeding #compassion #bunniesofig #rabbitsofinsta #houserabbits #rescue #foster (fb)

Rabbits are not Easter gifts! The lifetime care of an animal is a commitment that must be entered into thoughtfully. With Easter coming up, help us spread the word by sharing this post. Rabbits make wonderful companions, but only for those who have thoroughly considered their special care needs and who are looking for a family member with a life expectancy of over 10 years. Rabbits require a spacious indoor home, and their vet care can be costly. They are fragile and do not like to be picked up, so are seldom suitable for children, and absolutely never appropriate as a “starter pet.” This poster and more are available for download at rabbitrescueandrehab.org! #rabbits #rabbitsofinstagram #bunniesofinstagram #rabbitrescueandrehab #rabbit #houserabbit #rescue #rescuerabbits #stopanimaltesting #bekindtorabbits #bekindtoallkind #adoptdontshop #furfreenyc #compassion #bekindtoanimals #stopcrueltytoanimals #notjustforeaster #easter (fb)
