THE ADVANTAGES OF ADOPTING
When
you adopt a rabbit, you want to be assured of several things. You want him/her to be mentally and physically healthy. You
want to know the pluses and minus of living with a rabbit. You want reliable information on how to prepare your home and to
care for your rabbit. You want a rabbit that is a good match to your household. You want rabbit knowledgeable people to consult
with when questions come up about your rabbit.
The people who run rabbit rescue, shelter, and welfare organizations
are very knowledgeable about their charges and can answer the questions you may have about rabbits in general or about an
individual rabbit. In addition, most take responsibility for spaying or neutering their rabbits, training them to use a litter
box, socializing them and correcting behavioral problems. Volunteers in the group most often can discuss with you an individual
rabbit's quirks, can advise you if a rabbit will adjust to children and/or other household companion animals, their food preferences,
and their general temperament. This means that you can get lots of great help before you make a decision about the rabbit
that you are interested in and thereby avoid potential pitfalls.
In addition, these organizations are motivated by
what is in the best interest of rabbits, their health, and their longevity. They keep up on the latest veterinary literature,
often have consulting rabbit veterinarians, and know which products are best for your rabbit.
All this adds up to
a better chance for you and your rabbit to live happily and healthily together and decreases the chances of yet another rabbit
ending up abandoned and homeless. Develop a relationship with one of your local rabbit groups. See "Where can I adopt a rabbit?"
Should I adopt a baby or an adult rabbit, a single or a pair? What about breed?
