BLOOMINGTON – February is Adopt a Rescued Rabbit Month at the Bloomington Animal Shelter.
Adoption fees are waived for all shelter rabbits.
The Bloomington Animal Shelter is located at 3410 South Walnut Street.
The event is to bring attention to rabbits who live in shelters waiting for their forever homes.
With the proper care and attention, rabbits can live 10 to 12 years. Rabbits are the third most surrendered animal to shelters, which means there are many looking for homes.
Adopting a rabbit saves two lives, the one being brought home and the one that will take its place to find its own home.
The Animal Shelter is open for visitations Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from Noon until 4 p.m. and Saturday, and Sunday from Noon until 3 p.m.
