  So I was contacted by a gal about surrendering and turns out she’s in California and didn’t know where we were. I’m sending her a list of California rabbit shelters, but if you know of any-that’d be a big help! Thanks!

  Most rabbit rescues here will only take bunnies from the 11th hour list (euthanasia) from Animal Care and Control and the Humane Societies. (unless the rabbit is ill or injured – then they may take directly) They usually are just overwhelmed saving the bunnies from being euthanized that they will not take in bunnies from private parties.
  
  Did she mention why she was surrendering? Maybe refer her here and we can help her solve some of the challenges. Otherwise if she surrenders to a no kill animal shelter like the SPCA and/or humane society, they will at least find a home for her bunny. Note though: No kill shelters doesn’t mean they don’t euthanize. What that actually means for most is that “adoptable” animals will not be euthanized. If an animal is sick, ill, aggressive or has behaviorial issues that can’t seem to be solved with some training then that can lead to euthanasea, and with rabbits being so misunderstood when they are scared, that can sometimes lead to a sad turnout.

  Yes, unfortunately it’s probably one of the worse reasons…”Going to college” So uh, right…I ask ‘when does college start’ ‘next september but my parents want the rabbit gone this week’
  
  What are you teaching your kid?
  
  I had no idea a rabbit could be euthed at a no kill….Here are no kills may euth for severe aggression in dogs, or health probs…

  I know, it’s hard to fathom. I can’t imagine telling my child to give up their animal. Obviously, the parents bought or allowed the bunny to be bought so it seems rather unfair for them to do this now. Well, I do hope for a some happy ending. Maybe she can find a friend who would want her bunny, that way she can keep in touch and offer care advice etc.
