International Rabbit Day, typically celebrated on the fourth Saturday in September, was established to raise awareness about the needs of rabbits, including proper care, adoption, and habitat preservation. The day also raises awareness about the exploitation of rabbits in testing and fur production. International Rabbit Day has become a global event celebrated by rabbit enthusiasts and animal welfare groups. One of the best ways to honor International Rabbit Day is by donating to an animal or wildlife rescue organization that aids rabbits. If you’d like to commemorate the day with a tangible memento, A-Z Animals has compiled a list of seven rabbit-themed gift ideas.
