On Saturdays, we help clean and take care of rabbits out at the Vancouver Rabbit Rescue and Advocacy. They have about 80 rabbits in the shelter and in foster care, and have been doing an amazing job for over 10 years in helping rabbits out. 

We've donated a lot of toys to the rabbits there, and if the bun really takes to their toy, they actually take them home when they are adopted. It's amazing to see a little piece of the shelter go with them in a new chapter of their lives. Some of these buns wait for months (and sometimes years) to get adopted, so seeing these buns playing with the toys we donate is definitely the most rewarding part of our jobs.

This week, we dropped off three Jumbo Apple Stick Toys for some special rabbits. Here are some photos of them enjoying their toys.

Arthur and Merlin:

By the time we left, this toy had so many nibbles in it! The two active boys loved throwing it around and chewing on it.

Sid:

This guy has so much character. As soon as we put this toy in, he was tossing it around and making so much noise!

Well, the PetExpo is over! 

We had a lot of fun this past weekend talking to people about rabbits. Surprisingly, not many people knew that rabbits could even play! We were able to raise some money to donate some toys to the Vancouver Rabbit Rescue, and we also donated some toys to the Small Animal Rescue of BC. These toys will be going to the rabbits waiting for their forever home. 

Our main goal has always been to raise awareness about rabbits and how they are capable of an active lifestyle, and are extremely rewarding as companions. I think we did just that this weekend, as many who didn't even own rabbits could see how much fun they could be. It was a busy weekend, but it was worth it!

Thanks to everyone who came out and supported us!

Rainbow Rabbits Retirement Home, located in the UK provides a long term home to sick or elderly buns. They provide a safe, loving home for these rabbits for their remaining time. 

We are participating in the Rainbow Parade on twitter (#RainbowParade) and donating five toys and shipping to the winner of the quiz contest. We're hoping to raise awareness for Rainbow Rabbits, and share some rabbit fun with the winners.
