[Petbunny] "free to good home" bunnies: do I dare?

[Ange D]

Do you have any non-neutered males in your household right now? If not, you
can wait on their spays for a little bit. It is really in their best
interest to wait before having them spayed. Hopefully you could have more
time to either bond them with your group or find them a forever-home.

I vote that you bring them home, but I am biased.
