RESCUED RABBITS FROM RESEARCH LABORATORY

Two adorable white rabbits shown here in their Foster Carer's home in Lismore. They are clean house rabbits that could live in your bedroom too! They are very tame and friendly and interested in people. They come when called for a treat. They are trained to use a litter tray. They were born in a steel, wire, artificially lit factory that cage breeds rabbits to sell to research laboratories. They were sold to a research laboratory and used to test a rabbit anasethic. They were granted their life at the end of the research and allowed to come to The Rabbit Sanctuary Australia and now they are in a lovely foster care home.  Would you like to adopt them?  If so fill in our application to adopt http://rabbitrescuesanctuary.blogspot.com.au/p/adoption.html and to chat about them ring Kim Cooney on 0416062947

Big Rabbit Rescue from Qld Research Facility

The Rabbit Sanctuary has rescued 7 New Zealand Giant Rabbits from a research facility in Queensland. They were very lucky bunnies as normally rabbits are put down after their use for research.

Remember to Google Plus this article to help us rehome them. The g+ icon is a red one below the article.

In this case the researcher grew to love them and planned to ask if he could Rehome them at the end. When the research was finished he went for a ride on his motorbike to relax and was tragically killed by a hit and run driver. 

His research partner requested that the research facility grant them a pardon and they were allowed to live. Here are photos of them on arrival at The Rabbit Sanctuary.

This was the first time in their entire lives that they were not in a laboratory cage.

Just delivered by the pet taxi with excited visitors to The Rabbit Sanctuary watching the moment that these rabbits see a life of freedom outside a laboratory cage.
