Rabbit Education Society Mission

The Rabbit Education Society is an internet group which serves to unite rabbit breeders and pet owners and to collect and make available accurate and complete rabbit information.

We welcome breeders and pet owners interested in animal welfare, not animal rights. The idea for this group began in 1997 and the goal is to educate all rabbit fanciers and promote responsible rabbit ownership. We need other like minded people to join us and help educate the public. There is far too little rabbit information currently available and we want to change that. These pages will strive to be a source of accurate and complete pet rabbit care information. It will also be a source of information for breeders to pass onto their pet rabbit buyers and also serve to inform all about what is going on out in the rabbit world. At this time there are no membership fees, if you want to join send an e-mail. We welcome articles about pet rabbits and responsible ownership.

Rabbit Education Society: Our Beliefs


We believe in Responsibility, Leadership, and Freedom

Responsibility ...

  • to the pet owning community and to our animals.
  • to provide quality information on rabbit pet care, both initially and on a continuing basis.
  • to sell or give rabbits only to individuals and families who are informed on rabbit needs and behavior.
  • to be self-policing through education in our breeder community.

    • Leadership ...

  • means work and it means courage.
  • in educating the breeding community on the public's changing view of pets, pet breeders, and the pet rabbit's increased popularity.
  • in educating both breeders and pet owners on the latest health, behavioral other care knowledge.

    • and Freedom.

  • We have freedoms to protect.
  • We believe in our right to humanely utilize animals in our traditional ways.
  • We realize that some people will abuse these rights but believe the remedy should primarily rely upon education, not government regulation and policing.
  • We support the ideals of animal welfare but oppose the effort by radicals to remake Western culture based on the faulty premise of animal rights aka elimination of all animal use.
