        …and, unfortunately, so are all the abandoned Easter bunnies.  As you may know, many people get baby bunnies for their kids or other family members for Easter and then abandon them when they get tired of the work. Every spring, rabbit shelters are filled with neglected hutch bunnies, accidental litters, and strays that people just let loose in the wild. 

        There’s something you can do, though! For years, I’ve been putting educational flyers around my town every Easter. At the supermarket, in churches, at community centers, in Starbucks…and I know for a fact that I’ve helped prevent at least two baby bunnies from being given as Easter gifts by (well-meaning) people. 

        I’m posting this flyer here so that you can do the same thing. Feel free to change it however you see fit. If you have the time, maybe you can print a few this week and put them around town. You could even just hand them to people who may be considering getting an Easter bunny. All the young bunnies who won’t be abandoned next month will thank you!

          Thank You!

          I have posted on buy/sell lists in the past but Easter crept up on me this year. No excuse really. It will only take me a couple minutes to put something out there.

          Still not too late as many will make a last minute choice to get a live bunny gift. Just pray notices like your flyer will have people consider more carefully.

            Thanks for posting.

            Every year there is more awareness on Easter Bunnies and hopefully this year people will have more common sense. I’ve been spreading the word for over a month on Facebook. There are lots of great flyers out there.

                Very good FluffyBunny.

                Longhair Mike, this poster makes me so sad :~( I cannot understand why no one has adopted this beautiful rabbit. Has he been adopted since they’ve distributed this poster?

                        That poster just broke my heart when I saw it on FB. Take him home, Mike.

                              I need to print out some of these to put up around town. The one in the above post absolutely breaks my heart and makes me want to cry because I just keep thinking thay Foo is part of that 5%.

                                  These are all so great! I have made my own flyer and have had my friend handing them out at his dad’s store in the customer’s bags when they buy something He just called me right now to tell me he’s putting them on people’s cars We all need to do this! I had a late start on it this year but hopefully it reaches out to someone
