The UK is in a rabbit welfare crisis.
Approximately 100,000 rabbits end up in rescue each year, having been dumped, neglected or simply because they have become unwanted , often purchased on a whim then surrendered as people have no idea of the complex & expensive care required to keep rabbits well.
Rabbits deserve better protection, just like dogs and cats.
The Rabbit Welfare Association and Fund are campaigning for
- Stronger breeder licensing laws
- Better enforcement & resources for Local Authorities
- A statutory Code of Practice for rabbit welfare for England
This Easter we’re asking you to write to your MP and ask them to support our call for change!
