If you’re looking for a quiet, submissive bunny to If you’re looking for a quiet, submissive bunny to cuddle with... keep scrolling. Marion doesn’t have time for that. 💅 As our longest-resident rabbit, Marion is frankly offended that the world hasn’t recognized her greatness yet. She isn’t just a rabbit; she’s a stunning, large Harlequin icon who knows she’s the prettiest girl in the room. Why eat from a bowl when you can hurl it across the room to show your displeasure with the plating? 🥣💨 She doesn’t do "cuddles", she does "appearances." You may look, but no touchy unless she says so. Marion is a professional toy-tosser and a dedicated interior decorator who will regularly move her furniture to suit her whims. She is a resilient girl managing a metabolic issue that requires a high-quality, specialized diet and a true kingdom (a large exercise space) where she can roam freely to stay healthy and burn off her signature spicy energy. 🐰💢 We are seeking a seasoned rabbit owner for this lady. Marion has high standards and she isn’t afraid to voice them. When she’s upset, she doesn’t just pout! She thumps, she charges, and she will literally growl at you. (We bet you didn't know rabbits can growl!) She isn’t "mean," she’s just Misunderstood Royalty. If you toss her a toy, expect her to throw it right back. 🎭 🕒 CATCH THE QUEEN IN PERSON Marion was here yesterday, but if you had the audacity to miss her, she will still be at the shelter Today from 12 PM – 4 PM. After that, she returns to her foster and will require an appointment for an audience. Come down to the shelter and meet this beautiful, dramatic queen or apply to adopt at hsdayton.org/adopt/small-animals #AdoptMarion #HarlequinRabbit #RabbitAdoption #HouseRabbit #BunnyWithAttitude #ShelterPet #QueenMarion #AdoptDontShop

🚨 Urgent foster + supply need 🚨 Kitten season is h 🚨 Urgent foster + supply need 🚨 Kitten season is here in full force, and with the recent cat case, our need for fosters and supplies has become even more urgent. We are in critical need of supplies right now including KMR for kittens without moms, puppy pads, heating disks, and miracle nipples. These items are essential for helping fragile kittens survive and thrive. You can find all of our ongoing needs at: hsdayton.org/wishlist If you are able to open your heart and home, we are also looking for fosters who can take in momma cats and kittens. Fostering saves lives and gives these families a safe, loving place to grow. We provide all food, supplies, and medical care. We just need your time, a little space in your home, and lots of love. You can apply at: hsdayton.org/foster Monetary donations also make a huge impact and help us direct funds wherever they are needed most: hsdayton.org/donate To everyone who supports us, thank you. Because of this community, we are able to take in animals who need help most and give them the care, comfort, and second chances they deserve. #KittenSeason #FosterNeeded #AdoptDontShop #AnimalRescue #CommunitySupport #DonateNow #FBLifestyle #DaytonOhio
