Won't you please consider adopting one of these bunnies, most of them originally pulled from Chicago Ridge? More space cleared at Catnap may allow them to rescue more.

I'm particularly hopeful that Narcissus will find the right home. He is a stunning neutered black and white full-sized rex who was originally fostered by a 12-year old girl who stayed in touch with me. He's a neat bunny with a dominant personality who, unfortunately, nipped at the wrong person before being neutered and thus got labeled a "problem bunny" by the person who wrote his Petfinder listing. Believe me guys, this is not a problem rabbit. He has been thisclose to several adoptions but they've always fallen through at the last minute. He'd love for someone to leash-train him! At an adoption event someone just put a harness on him and he took to it like a natural. I have a great photo of him looking into the store window from the sidewalk lurking in my email archives somewhere.
Fudgie and Kato are new arrivals from a private home (I believe) and they are just as friendly as can be. I believe they will be considered a bonded pair which must be adopted together, but check with Catnap about that. I suspect they go the "no kids" tag because of Fudgie's grooming needs, but again, that's something worth checking into.
Chelsie (formerly Miss Beatrice) is a Chicago Ridge rescue. Trust me, her pictures do NOT do her justice!
Peach is a staff favorite. She was a regular boarder until her owner's mom decided she was too much work and surrendered her to Catnap.
Not on Petfinder are two absolutely neat black bucks, 8 months old, neutered, and although a bonded pair (probably brothers) I believe Catnap will split them. They are very leggy, elegant rabbits with outrageously huge ears who beg like dogs for attention and think people are just the Bestest Things Ever. I'm almost positive they're at the Broadview PetSmart for viewing right now. The picture below is not of them, but of a nearly identical rabbit who turned up in another area shelter. (Hmm....)
Isn't he pretty?
I don't know everyone who is in foster care right now, or whether they are included in the adoption fee reduction. I know that the gorgeous black tuxedo rex buck who arrived the same day as Narcissus is still in his foster home, along with a bonded pair of dwarf bucks (which is as much as I remember about them). Apparently the foster home has been having so much fun with them that they've just been hanging around. If you or someone you know might be interested in any of them, please drop me a PM and I can talk to Catnap. If you contact the shelter directly, it's likely that whoever answers the phone will have no idea what rabbits you're talking about.
