While they may not be "suffering unduly" this does not justify an organization that "speaks for the animals" using this type of "housing" *PIC*
In Response To: While focus is put on the inadequate cages no mention is made of the 10 excellent cages in the rabbit room *PIC* ()
The white tag on the cage says: Not feeling well. Please DO NOT pet. Thanks
We are well aware that several different sizes of cages are used to accommodate the rabbits but the lab cages are the ones of most concern. They allow for minimal movement only and as these rabbits are confined for indefinite periods of times this can lead to stress and illness. While they may not be "suffering unduly" this does not justify an organization that is supposed to "speak for the animals" using this type of "housing".
Nor should it be the volunteers who provide the hay and fresh greens, at their own expense.
The SPCA has to direct more resources towards the welfare and advocacy of rabbits.
