There have been a number of revisions within the BC SPCA and one recent decision is that only three rabbits will be permitted on the floor for adoption at the Surrey SPCA. The Surrey SPCA's Animal Learning Centre, which formerly brought rabbits to their building in order to alleviate the overcrowding in the SPCA building and to find new homes for its rabbits, is not allowed to do so any longer. Staff have been told to spend more time going into the community doing education.

Surrey has a huge problem with unwanted animals and unless those individuals concerned about rabbits, and rabbit rescue groups take them, the excess will be killed. Already, those who have assisted are barely coping with the ones presently in need of permanent homes, and the foster network is struggling to accommodate all the needy. This continual shuffling of unwanted pets, while providing interim relief, typifies the SPCA's revolving door system where nothing changes.
