Overview
The Rabbitats project intends to show how large numbers of homeless feral/domestic rabbits can be safely, securely and happily in outdoor escape-proof, predator-proof and astetically pleasing 'rabbitats'. We plan on using the Pepsi Refresh funds to build a model that can be approved by the appropriate government agencies and demonstrated to animal shelters, pet rescues, institutions and responsible private citizens willing to host the enclosures and care for small groups of sterilized rabbits. Rabbitats Canada can then solicit materials and volunteers to help build affordable colony housing for anywhere from six to 60 neutered rabbits at a time and educate new rabbit guardians on low maintenance and sustainable care.
