Pet shops
The RWA&F does not condone the sale of rabbits from Pet Shops and would prefer to see them obtained from rescue centres, or their place of birth.
However, as an organisation we feel that it is necessary to work with pet shops in order to change opinion and to work towards the correct information being accessible to existing and potential rabbit owners, as well as members of staff, to promote rabbit welfare.
