There is no distinct features, but it is mix so they called it a cross. It would of been simpler to call it a Bunny Rabbit.

They are all so beautiful! Stan, you should share your pics with the HS in case they want to post them on petfinder or something. They are such beautiful pictures!
I want this one:
Think I can get to Alberta before Alicia?
And for whomever asked about the blue eyes- I believe that comes from breeding in vienna marked bunnies, who typically have the lighter eyes and sometimes the markings look a bit dutch around the face.

During my volunteer time(2 hours) I take out about 3 bunnies. During orientation they said to take out 2 bunnies an hour(the schedual is setup by the hour)but I dont' find that gives enough time. So I do 3 in 2 hours, as it gives a bit more time for the bunny to run around. By the time you bring them to the room, pet/play, catch them, put them back in their cage and clean the room, the time gets eaten up.
WE get to choose which bunnies we want to cuddle off the list. ON the list bunnies that have stars by their name need to be taken out first but other then that we can pick any one we want off the list.
The bunny room is different then the adoption room. The Critter cuddling room is in the basement. So yo uhave to box up the rabbits and take them downstairs.
We only get to play with the rabbits that are up for adoption. There are some younger bunnies(a few months old) but no babies. The baby bunnies are in foster care or kept behind the scenes.
That's great you could volunteer. The poor bunnies must be getting cagestir-crazy for sitting in them for so long. No wonder they want their freedom and don't want to return to their cages. How many bunnies do you get to take out during your time? Is it 2 bunnies at 1 hour each? Do you get to choose which bunny to cuddle? Is the bunny room the same room they use for adoptions? Do you get to handle the really young bunnies too?
Here is Safara. She is 3 months old, a rabbit cross.

CBC TV was at the shelter today, doing a feature on the bunnies.
Thereare still 40 or so bunniesup for adoptions, and 5 more in foster care.
When all the does (female) rabbits gets spayed, the remaining bucks (males) will get neutered. So funding is welcome for all the operations.
Supplies look good, they have stocks of hay and pellets on hand for now. Newspapers and phone books are running low, so if you can bring those in, it will be appreciated.

I went down tonight for myvolunteeringand there is 30 bunnies up for adoption. I"m still amazed that that so many of the buns have been adopted so far, considering normally they would only adopt out 50 or so in a whole year!
Today I got to play with Arbutus and Padme. Arbutus was a cute little bun. He didn't mind being petted and even stuck out his neck and rested his chin on my kneefor a good scratch but after a few minutes wanted to be let down. He explored the room and when it was time to catch him, he gave me a good run around. He wasn't scared of me but each time i'd reach for him, he'd hop away. He must have thought it was a game, but I eventually caught him.
Padme was a sweetheart. She sat for a good 15mins for petting before I put her down for some excercise time. She wasn't into exploring and spent most of the time grooming. When it was time to pack her up and bring her to her cage, there was no problems catching her. She let me walk right up to her and pick her up. She is the first bunny that has been so good with being picked up and held. Most try to run away and I have to run around the room after them. She seems like a good calm,cuddly bun.

Great work guys! Im so happy to hear so many were adopted. I really hope they can find the rest homes. I imagine its more difficult this time of year bc of Easter dumps making things worse.
That looks like a palace compared to most Humane Societies Ive been to. Im glad you have a nice place to help the animals.
