(1) Buy a cruelty-free product. These are any items whose ingredients have not been tested on animals. You will find cruelty free products at stores such as Whole Foods, My Organic Market, and Trader Joe's. Look for the Leaping Bunny logo. Some brands include Jason, Avalon, Aveda, etc. For more info about companies with cruelty-free products, visit www.leapingbunny.org or click on their link on RabbitWise's Rabbit Advocate page. They will send you a free pocketsize shopping guide upon request.

(2) Write a letter to a restaurant you know has rabbit on the menu and request that they remove it. Recently a local Maryland restaurant, Café des Artistes, agreed to stop serving rabbit when The Natural Rabbit group, RabbitWise® volunteers and other devoted rabbit lovers flooded the owners with letters and information about rabbits. Your voice matters!

(3) On September 24, have a vegetarian meal. Rabbits really dig their salads! Learn to eat like a rabbit.

(4) Volunteer for a rabbit rescue or advocacy group (like RabbitWise!®) or help out at a local animal shelter. Saving an animal's life enriches the soul and uplifts the human race.

(5) Foster a rabbit and experience the joy of sharing your home with one. Many rabbit rescue groups can assist you with finding a rabbit. Visit RabbitWise®'s Adopt A Rescued Rabbit page for links to our local rabbit shelters and organizations.

(6) Make a donation to an animal shelter, rabbit rescue and advocacy group. Funds are always desperately needed to provide medical care for fostered and abandoned rabbits, to promote education about rabbits, and to find rabbits good homes.

(7) Shop at www.cafépress.com. Many groups, such as RabbitWise® and House Rabbit Society, have stores located there with items for sale, e.g. tote bags, mugs, T-shirts, even lunch boxes and camisoles! A percentage of the profit goes to support these groups to help the rabbits.

(8) For the next celebration, a child's birthday, baby shower, or other special occasion, introduce children to rabbits and humane care of all living beings early in their development. Get a rabbit doll or books with rabbits as main characters, such as Beatrix Potter's Peter Rabbit Stories.

(9) Send a letter to Animal Planet on cable or PBS, and tell them that you want to see some shows/documentaries about rabbits. They are one of the least understood animals and sadly, exploited as food, fur, and fiber. We need to get the word out how wonderful these creatures are to stop this exploitation.

(10) Boycott shops that sell rabbit fur clothing and linings. Write letters to their corporate headquarters and complain. For example: Lord and Taylor is currently selling a whole line of rabbit fur items. UGG boots, a very popular item from last year, has just released a new line of $400 boots trimmed in rabbit fur.
