CCTV 直擊一位中年男士棄兔過程

今日下午大約1時左右, 一名中年男士用一個紙箱裝住一隻垂耳兔棄於兔協所屬的樓層, 更多次將紙箱放於樓層不同的地方, 最後棄於貼近擺放垃圾的地方, 幸好還未有清潔工人來收垃圾, 否則又去了堆填區。

現時兔協棄兔申請是需要排期的, 我們手頭上大約有十多隻棄兔申請正在排期當中, 需排到5月, 此打尖行為對已申請的主人很不公平, 更加有可能對兔兔做成生命危險, 在此懇請打算棄兔的主人為兔兔生命安全著想, 有始有終, 循正途申請棄養。

兔兔現時叫 Watermelon, 垂耳兔, 男仔, 年齡不詳, 已預約獸醫進行身體檢查, 大家如有興趣領養Watermelon, 請將姓名及聯絡電話電郵info@hkrabbit.org 提出申請, 給牠一個家。

=============================================
棄兔即屬違法
我們亦奉勸各位有意「胡亂棄兔」的人士：根據香港法例421章狂犬症條例第22節規定「動物蓄養人如無合理解釋而棄掉其動物，即屬犯罪，可被判處罰款$10,000 及監禁六個月」。在有需要的時候，我們不排除報警及將相關資料移交警方跟進。

希望各位準備棄兔的主人可以盡早為牠們作出妥善的安排，或依循正常途徑向本會提出申請，切勿以身試法。
