Adoption Fees on Rabbits Waived at Montgomery County Animal Services and Adoption Center so You Can ‘Find Some Bunny to Love’

For Immediate Release: Wednesday, November 3, 2021

The Montgomery County Animal Services and Adoption Center (MCASAC) operated by the Montgomery County Office of Animal Services will be holding a one-week adoption promotion from Nov. 3 through Nov. 9 where adoption fees will be waived for all rabbits. MCASAC’s Find Some Bunny to Love is sponsored by the nonprofit organization Friends of Montgomery County Animals.

Rabbits make excellent pets, have lots of personality, and can even be litterbox trained. MCASAC currently has 25 rabbits available for adoption. The shelter has had to use additional rooms to house the rabbits as the small animal adoption room is at capacity. Patrons who submit an adoption questionnaire throughout this event will receive a voucher valid through Nov. 30, 2021 to adopt a rabbit for free.

Guidelines for adoption and the adoption questionnaire can be found at https://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/animalservices/adoption/howtoadopt.html. Patrons may apply online or may come to the shelter in person to make an appointment. Some walk-in appointments may be available.

Shelter hours of operation are noon – 7 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and noon – 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The shelter is closed to the public on Wednesdays.
