AnimalZone: Bunnies Matter – Hop to the Rescue! - Season 13, Episode 06

What happens in Vegas… shouldn’t involve abandoning pet rabbits! That’s why Bunnies Matter, a Las Vegas-based rescue organization, is working around the clock to save domestic bunnies left to fend for themselves in parks, parking lots, and places they should definitely not be. Spoiler alert: a pet rabbit isn’t a wild rabbit—they’re more “couch potato” than “desert survivalist.”

At the heart of this hare-raising mission is Dave Schweiger, the fearless founder who, instead of hitting the jackpot at the casino, has bet it all on rescuing these gentle, twitchy-nosed creatures. But he’s not alone—his all-star bunny brigade includes:

Liz Grable, the education coordinator and self-proclaimed bunny mom, who reminds us that rabbits are some of the cuddliest, gentlest creatures in the animal kingdom.

Denise Wonders, the queen of events and fundraisers, introduces us to Bun Bun 6 and proves that when it comes to nonprofit success, Bucks Matter too!

Abigail and Layla, two dedicated volunteers with angora bunnies so fluffy they could double as designer pillows.

Jackie, the organizational mastermind who recruits and rallies the volunteer team, making sure every rescue mission runs smoother than a bunny’s freshly groomed coat.

From daring rescues in Sunset Park to the safe, snuggly retreats of Bunny Bundles Sanctuary, Bunnies Matter is hopping into action every day. And along the way, we’ll learn about the challenges these rabbits face, why they make wonderful (but often misunderstood) pets, and how YOU can help—whether it’s adopting, volunteering, or just embracing your inner bunny enthusiast.

So fluff up those ears and get ready for a wild (but very soft) ride into the world of bunny rescue. This is one episode you don’t want to miss—because when it comes to saving these adorable furballs, every-bunny matters!
