It is finally over! To be quite honest, I am relieved. It was very stressful the week before zootoo came, more stressful than they will ever know. I even caught the flu the day after! The previous week, I think I worked and estimated 13 hours! And that was with full days of school too. My mom was litterally at the shelter all day on Tuesday, and Wednesday. The video is really awesome! It doesn't show much of the shelter though. Our photos of the shelter are pretty descriptive though so please lo… read more

I totally agree with you! I work at a rabbit shelter and I should know better than anyone the workings of breeders. We are overflowing in capacity of rabbits! Most of our rabbits come from busted breeders. Not to mention we are in a tiny warehouse with hardly enough room. We are no kill and we have a hard time turning people away because we know that if we don't take the bunnies from the humane society, then they will be euthanized. People buy "the perfect rabbit" from a breeder, and a year later when it has grown up and is big, they bring the bunny to us. It is an endless cycle. The best part is that at my shelter, we spay and neuter all of our bunnies before they leave the shelter! So we are helping to end the overpopulation. It only takes one to start change.
I understand that my comment was very vauge but you realize that I didn't say that I support breeders. In fact, I despise them. I did a report on puppy mills in middle school and I fully understand the horrors of it all. I did say that I love reading about the different breeds as a child. If you really read my comment then you would have realized this. I usually just bought the magazines for the dog posters. I love animals very much, and all of my animals are from shelters not breeders.
I also understand why you wrote this anonymously. You don't want to be bashed. I get it! But instead of writing this comment here, you could have wrote a journal where more people would read it. Its easier to get your point across that way.
