We’ve got it bad for these furry friends — or maybe this is just the bunny-moon phase.

Every first Sunday of the month, Pet Food Express in Land Park hosts adoptable bunnies. We couldn’t resist meeting these cuties, and we wound up learning a lot in the process.

Despite their little size, bunnies can be a big responsibility. So before you adopt or foster, consider these rabbit-care rules from Only Sunshine Sanctuary:

  • Soft flooring — Bunnies should be free range, or have at least 16 sqft of space to roam.
  • Balanced diet — Grass hays, quality pellets + fresh greens are recommended.
  • Litter care — Stick some hay in or next to a litter box + fill it with paper or pellets.
  • Play — Provide them plenty of hiding spaces + find ways to hide their snacks to enrich meal time.

Interested in adopting or supporting other adoptable animals? We have just the list for you, complete with shelter info + donation wish lists.
