Eh, we all have our causes. Those of us who are devoted to the little causes rather than the big causes are not throwing our efforts away - because if everyone was devoted wholeheartedly to the big causes, who would take care of the little ones?

Like my thing is rabbit rescue. All right, people say, so there are a lot of rabbits who are not properly cared for and a ton get abandoned, especially after Easter. Even those who don't scornfully go "They're just RABBITS" and understand why I care sometimes don't know why I'm not supporting dog and cat rescues, since there are so many MORE dogs and cats that are mistreated in the US. That doesn't mean there are NO rabbits being mistreated, and if a few of us who have that passion don't help them "because there are more dogs and cats in need", who will help them?

So go with what your passion tells you. All causes are in need of someone, whether big or small.

This!!

It's also possible to care about more than one thing at once, and it's a very GOOD thing in my opinion to follow through with those issues that really move you and worry you on an emotional level. Doesn't mean you can't understand the importance of greater social issues that affect more people, but nobody said you are required to devote a certain level of emotional energy into them.

You're kind of awesome, rabbit-rescuer!

Hey, rabbits need protecting and I'm too busy with cats to do it. (And I suspect there are people out there looking at both of us and saying, "But there are HUMAN CHILDREN who need help, how can you waste your time and resources on mere animals?!") So it's cool with me that you're focusing on rabbits. :)

Because adoption laws wouldn't give us children if we wanted them anyway.

Or at least that holds true here in Australia, where adoption laws are totally ridiculous.

I feel ya man, my thing is rattlesnakes/insects/arachnids because I ADORE them and let's face it, it's hard to get support for critters that fail the heartstring test because they're dangerous/"gross"/"ugly"

It's still irritating when people dismiss a living thing just because it isn't a common house pet, or a panda bear :/

Oh gosh, I agree with you so much! I remember being in a room with my parents when a "save the polar bears" commercial came on. Their reaction was to complain about how we should be focusing on more important issues like the war in Afghanistan. I got annoyed because it's not like the polar bears can just stop being in need of help just because America is at war. It's this idea that my cause is important and yours isn't that really gets under my skin.

Now you have me thinking about the possible issues of abandoned rabbits in Australia. Australia has problems with feral rabbits. We have problems with feral cats too, but feral cats haven't quite the coverage that the rabbit plagues did.

Feral animals (non-native animals that have gone wild) are a common problem down here, and I it probably doesn't count any less for rabbits than it does for cats, camels or cane toads.
