A Free Bunny Adoption Event Is Happening In Toronto This Weekend & Their Bios Are Everything

One bun is actually called Flo Rida.

Toronto Associate Editor

If you're looking for a sweet little pet but are waiting until your next paycheck before you consider adoption, the City of Toronto has got you covered with the newest bunny adoption event where you can get a rabbit for free.

On October 19, Toronto Animal Services tweeted that they're waiving the adoption fees for their floppy-eared friends on October 23 and 24. The adoption fee for rabbits is typically $40.

"Remember, rabbits are not starter pets — adopting one is a similar commitment to bringing a puppy or kitten into your life," TO Animal Service wrote in a follow-up tweet. "Always do your research when you are considering adding a new pet to your household."

There are currently nine rabbits that are up for adoption on their website, so if you are considering bringing one of these furry friends home, you better hop-hop-hop to the shelter.

Adam

"Adam is quite the little gentleman but also has a wild side! He is very quiet and can usually be found in his [favourite] spots having a snooze as he likes some alone time," shelter staff wrote. This adorable little guy is shy but very friendly and would do best in a quiet home of one to two owners.

"Valvoline came to the shelter covered with motor oil," shelter staff wrote about the New Zealand White rabbit. "He has been bathed and treated for ear mites." Now he's enjoying the shelter's outdoor run space, so anyone who has plenty of green space at home may want to consider bringing home little Valvoline here.
