69 Rabbits Seized in Wheaton

[ilovetoeatchocolate]

I don't know if this is new news or not but does everyone know about this? It was posted on the veganfreak.com forum site. Please is there someone that can deal with this? I have no idea where Wheaton is? I am in Canada, not the states.

They say they are here:
The DuPage County Animal Care and Control Center in Wheaton. And this is a Animal Care and Control Center. I can't imagine that they would be into saving rabbits as in not euthanizing them. Please someone in the states look into this! I can't stand when any animal dies because of lack of human care/knowledge etc.

Something can be done right????

I have emailed the house rabbit society. Who is the closest rescue to Wheaton on RO?

Probably me... or mabye the one that BF works with? My sil mentioned this to me last night at the family get together, but the problem is that I really can't afford to take any on right now. If anyone wants to adopt, though, I would be willing to help wtih transport, or temp fostering.

I contacted the house rabbit society and they said they are on this. I don't know if they need help as I am not in the States but you could contact them if you like?

Sorry I didn't see this thread sooner. I know these rabbits are being/were being parceled out to other shelters. CatNap has seven, five boys and two girls.
