We at House Rabbit Society are thrilled that PETCO has recommitted to an adoption-only policy for rabbits and has ceased the sale of rabbits at select locations. This decision is a positive step toward ensuring better outcomes for all rabbits. We are grateful for the dedicated work of so many rabbit rescue groups across the country to make this decision possible.
PETCO’s decision to stop selling rabbits in their stores is a testament to the power of collective action within the rabbit community. This achievement reflects the tireless efforts of advocates and rescue groups who came together to push for change, all with the well-being of rabbits at the forefront. Their unified voices have made a real difference for countless rabbits who might otherwise face overpopulation, neglect, or abandonment.
We encourage you to write or email PETCO directly to thank them for this vital change: Joel D. Anderson, CEO, Joel.Anderson@petco.com, cc: customerrelations@petco.com, (877) 738-6742.
