Adoption Fees Waived for Rabbits During the Month of May

The Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA (PHS/SPCA) is hosting a Hop into Spring adoption event by waiving adoption fees on rabbits through the entire month of May.

“Rabbits are charming pets, and perfect for people living in smaller spaces since they don’t require as much space as a dog,” said PHS/SPCA’s Communications Manager Buffy Martin Tarbox.  “Most are litter boxed trained and they are also very quiet animals, so no barking or meowing.”

Snoop, a four year old rabbit is just one of many wonderful rabbits available for adoption at PHS/SPCA.  Snoop is neutered and very friendly.

Adoptable rabbits are available at PHS/SPCA Tom and Annette Lantos Center for Compassion, 1450 Rollins Road, Burlingame. The shelter is open for adoptions 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends. Potential adopters should arrive at least an hour before closing time to complete an adoption.

“Even though the adoption fees are waived on rabbits, we will still be following our strict and rigorous adoption processes since we want to make permanent matches,” according to Tarbox.  “Rabbits should be kept indoors and will require certain conditions for an indoor habitat, which our staff can explain in detail to potential adopters.”

In 2017, PHS/SPCA adopted 3,395 animals into new loving homes.
