Question: Is it better to surrender a rabbit to a rescue/shelter even though there are so many unwanted rabbits or is it better to keep it even though care is not ideal? Example: Two rabbits were left at our school, and someone donated a hutch. The rabbits cannot be kept in the classroom, and must remain outside. They are given vegetables, hay, and pellets. Their hutch is modified so that they don't step on wire. They are allowed fenced play time on grass whenever possible. I felt that the rabbits could have a better environment, but upon research, it seems that there are way too many abandoned rabbits that can be successfully rehoused.
Would surrendering the rabbits be in their best interests? They are a bonded pair and are healthy. Yes, it would be ideal if they could become someone's house rabbit and treated as part of the family, but how likely is that going to happen? What do you guys think?
