Like dogs and cats, rabbits end up in need of being rescued from life on the streets or kill shelters. It isn’t uncommon to find domesticated rabbits abandoned in the wild. Others are found as strays, turned over to rescue groups, dumped at shelters, or retrieved from hoarding situations. While much attention is paid to the fates of cats and dogs in need of homes, rabbits awaiting adoptive forever homes rarely find themselves in the limelight—but rabbits need love, too. In this book, author and pet photographer Susannah Maynard draws attention to the struggles and triumphs of rabbits in foster care or shelters and chronicles the journeys of bunnies who have found their forever homes. Readers of all ages will enjoy more than 150 personality-filled portraits of rabbits—whether young, elderly, part of a bonded pair, or those with special needs—that show the charming personalities of these cotton-tailed critters.
