**Help Needed with Easter and Bunnies Don't Mix Campaign**
As Easter approaches, our concerns turn toward the many
rabbits
who will be purchased impulsively, only to be discarded shortly
after Easter. There are many ways you can help us spread the
word
that Easter and Bunnies don't mix:

1) Post our newly redesigned flyers at your local animal hospital,
pet supply store, supermarket, school, or church. Flyer are
available
to download.

2) If you know someone who is thinking of purchasing a rabbit
at Easter, let them know it may be a bad idea. Ask them to
visit our web site or call us to learn more before they make
that fateful decision. www.rabbit.org OR (510) 970-7575.

3) Place our Easter banner on your homepage.

4) Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper.
Tell them, in your own words, the truth about what happens
to many rabbits at Easter.

The bunnies need your help - Please help us spread the word.


**New T-Shirts**
Just in time for the Easter season and teh unfortunate post-
Easter
dumping, we've designed new t-shirts, sweat-shirts and other
clothing
sporting our popular "Food, not Free" message. These items, as
well
as other logo and website shirts, mugs and bags can be found
at:
