27 Rabbits Surrendered to the Louisiana SPCA

January 17, an overwhelmed rabbit owner brought 27 rabbits to the Louisiana SPCA (LA/SPCA). Surrendered because of temperament issues and out of control breeding each rabbit will be examined by the LA/SPCA veterinary team, assessed for behavior, and evaluated for adoption. This large scale owner surrender has put a strain on the LA/SPCA resources. Equipped to handle up to five rabbits at any time the LA/SPCA is in need of water bottles, rabbit food, hay, and other supplies to give these animals the best care possible. Additionally, spay or neuter surgery for a rabbit is a specialized procedure requiring a special skill set.
The LA/SPCA is asking the community to help with this influx of rabbits. Due to the care each rabbit needs donations are welcome. Each rabbit would benefit from one on one socialization; foster care parents are needed to socialize the rabbits in preparation for a forever home. Additionally, the LA/SPCA is getting the word out that these rabbits will be available for adoption soon. Interested rabbit owners can contact the LA/SPCA at 504-368-5191 to learn when the rabbits are ready for a permanent placement.
