There’s a lady in Oregon who’s been busted again for hoarding bunnies. It seems she’s been arrested over and over for having hundreds of rabbits in her house (some in her freezer :( ) and now they’ve found her in a hotel room with more bunnies. The local anchors and reporter have been covering this story for a while, and while they don’t burst out laughing, they’re not exactly solemn, because the last time the police took away the lady’s bunnies, she BROKE IN to the hidden police location and STOLE BACK 140 BUNNIES. There is nothing funny about animal neglect, reporters! Stop finding this absurdly amusing! It’s so wrong!:

This has been a Videogum Media Watchdog post. Watching the media and calling them out for inadequate horror in the face of rabbit death since just now.

  2. This sort of crazy is nothing short of profound. :( , but profound.
    I can only hope that she and the cyberstalking costume shop owner become internet besties. And I think we need a mash-up as well. Make it happen, internet!

  3. Everyone knows the way to deal with a deal rabbit it return it “FROM WHENCE YOU CAME!”

      Upvoted. Excellent pop culture reference. No need to be “sosorry” about this, my friend, no need at all.

  4. “Brian this is a story you’re pretty familiar with since you’ve been covering it for about three years now, huh?” “Uh, y-…yeah it’s uh, a story people are familiar with now…”

  5. This is a future episode of Obsessed.

  6. I hope she at least has the dignity to make a nice stew with them bunnies in her freezer.

  7. Is this what happens when “Cute As Balls” stops being cute?

    “In a related story – Oregon is in a state of despair after a shortage of Trix has hit supermarkets hard statewide.”

  12. what the WHAT?

  13. To be fair, it started out small with just a couple bunnies, but after a couple days they made hundreds.

    it’s funny that she can get arrested for hoarding rabbits when slaughter houses keep thousands of cows and chickens in horrible conditions and it’s totaly ok. kind of hypocritical. She needs to be in a mental hospital, not jail.

    It’s not her fault. George told her she could tend the rabbits.

    It’s sad that the state is gonna throw her in jail instead of getting her mental help.

    wait guys. hid behind a pole? do they have a human camera man?

  18. This woman needs some therapy and support or she will continue to hoard.

    I’m a researcher for the series Confessions: Animal Hoarding, currently airing on Animal Planet that tells the stories of people overwhelmed by the number of pets they own. The problem is on the rise and affects communities across America.

    Most of these situations aren’t dealt with until they become criminal. This results in animals being euthanized by over-stressed shelters, and doesn’t address the underlying psychological issues – meaning nearly 100% of people end up in the same situation again.

    We are dedicated to finding comprehensive long-term solutions and believe therapy to be key to therapy to be key to this. We can bring in experts to help people and their pets.
