Animal adoption is a significant and heartwarming topic that highlights the importance of providing loving homes for animals in need. With millions of animals in shelters worldwide, petitions advocating for adoption over buying from breeders or pet stores aim to raise awareness about the plight of homeless pets. Whether its promoting adoption events, supporting rescue organizations, or advocating for spaying and neutering programs, these petitions seek to combat animal overpopulation and improve the lives of shelter animals.
Notable petitions in this category include campaigns to end puppy mills and pet store sales of animals, as well as initiatives to promote responsible pet ownership. By signing these petitions, individuals can contribute to saving lives, reducing euthanasia rates, and creating a compassionate community for both animals and humans. Get involved in the movement to rescue and adopt animals in need today.
Working with animal rescues gives us valuable insight on the animal population problems in various communities. Losing a rescue resource is not only a financial toll on animal services in each community, but it's also a toll on the community itself and those animals who'll have nowhere to go, but, a county shelter and quickly into a black plastic bag. We have so many stray loose rabbits here because our City and state are not acting swiftly and supporting rescue efforts. . . Don't make the same mistake California has.
I have adopted 3 bunnies from BunnyLu. All of them were extremely well taking care of there. The rescue is clean, and you can tell a lot of time is put into taking proper care of all the bunnies. Without this rescue I can't imagine where rabbits would go when they needed to be taken in. Most shelters don't take small or exotic animals in this area of Virginia. All 3 of my bunnies were well behind litter trained and used to weekly grooming/nail trims. You wouldn't well adjust rabbits in a shelter setting or from most breeders. She is doing great things for these bunnies.
Devi, Vega (both pictured in petition picture...lol) and Bennie say thanks for saving our lives!
I adopted my sweet rabbit from BunnyLu. There is no other shelter like this in Virginia that takes such good care of bunnies, advocates for them, and gives them space and love. It is extremely important to keep this shelter open!
I adopted my beloved rabbit from Bunny Lu, she has absolutely changed my life. Rabbits are special creatures and they don’t do well in a normal shelter. A rescue like Bunny Lu saves hundreds of bunnies, not to mention it’s one of the only ones in this area.
I have adopted bunnies from Bunny Lu. Mary Ellen is the best bunny rescue mom that treats every bunny as their own. Please don't close down Bunny Lu! Bunnies are the most abandoned pet in the country and Bunny Lu is there for them. So again PLease Do Not Close Down Bunny Lu.
My daughter has adopted one of the bunnies from this shelter. The work they are doing is amazing. City/county leaders - please work with this amazing rescue to help sustain this effort which is a benefit to not just the rabbits they save but also the surrounding community where community members can find and bond with these rescued rabbits.
It’s heartbreaking to see a successful and compassionate bunny shelter facing closure despite its years of dedicated service to neglected and abandoned rabbits. this shelter has not only provided crucial care, but has also facilitated responsible adoption, ensuring these sensitive animals find safe, loving homes. Instead of shutting them down, we should be supporting and expanding their efforts. preventing their work means denying these rabbits the care They desperately need. Please stand with them and be a protector of good, not a barrier to it.
I’ve been to this shelter numerous of times supporting Bunny Lu and its rabbits. This is one of the only safe havens for abandoned rabbits..! This place has to remain intact in order for these rabbits to survive!!
I volunteered at bunny Lu for almost a year after my rabbit passed. The owner of the rescue was there for me when a vet couldn’t be and helped me tend to my rabbit when he wasn’t feeling the best. Without a connection so close to home I’m sure he would have passed long before it was his time. I decided to show my appreciation by helping the rescue out with my time and it was healing seeing how the rescue helped so many other rabbits and helped loving rabbits get to safe loving homes !
