“Put it in a stew.”
“Why rescue rabbits when they could feed shelters?”
“Looks yummy.”
Anyone who works with rescue rabbits has heard these a million times. The jokes aren't clever, and they aren't funny.
Loving animals and not wanting them to suffer isn't the reason people go hungry.
The world already produces enough calories to feed everyone. Hunger is mostly a problem of poverty, conflict, and distribution, and harvesting more animals wouldn't change that.
I work with rabbits every day, and I can tell you they have real personalities. They bond, they play, and they feel fear and comfort just like any other animal we love.
You're allowed to care about a creature that someone else sees as dinner.
Compassion doesn't take food off anyone's plate.
If you'd like to help a rabbit in need, Hoppy Homes 4 Bunnies is always looking for adopters, fosters, and donations. Every bunny deserves a safe, loving home. 🐰
