Two lop-eared albino rabbits were found dumped outside a Pets at Home store in Llandudno in the early hours of this 02.11.11.
Staff arriving early to open the store alerted the RSPCA after discovering the two white adult male rabbits in a large brown box outside.
The box had holes in it and writing on the top. The rabbits were of a healthy condition but were covered in urine, and were left with food but no water.
On checking CCTV footage, the staff were able see that the rabbits were dumped at around 6.30am that morning, and were also able to capture footage of the perpetrator (a man in jeans and a jacket who arrived by
car) on camera.
RSPCA animal collection officer Will Galvin said: "Although the rabbits were left in a healthy condition outside a pet store, there is never any excuse for abandoning an animal.
“If you really feel that you can no longer look after a pet, you can seek advice from an animal welfare organisation.
"I would urge anyone who recognises the description of these rabbits to contact the RSPCA immediately."
Anyone with information is urged to contact the RSPCA cruelty and information line on 0300 1234 999. Calls will be treated in confidence.

People that dump any animal off like that really tick me off!!! The last two cats we adopted are "dumped" ones. A shame someone did that as they are such sweet cats. Thank you for visiting my blog!
