The facility is run by the Empathy Animal Association, an organization focused on animal welfare advocacy.
It specializes specifically in lagomorph rescue, distinguishing it from general animal shelters in Taichung.
The location frequently operates in collaboration with local veterinary networks to address the specialized medical needs of injured or neglected rabbits.
Many residents at the facility are rescued from improper husbandry conditions or discarded by former owners.
Rabbit Paradise (Empathy Animal Association) is a specialized animal welfare sanctuary located in the Shigang District of Taichung, Taiwan, dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of rabbits. The facility operates as a non-profit organization that prioritizes animal rights and public education regarding rabbit care. It provides a permanent home for rabbits that have been abandoned, abused, or are deemed unadoptable due to medical or behavioral issues. The site functions as both an animal shelter and an interactive educational center where visitors can learn about the specific dietary and environmental needs of domestic rabbits. Staff at the facility facilitate adoption processes for those interested in providing long-term care for rescued animals. The grounds are designed to accommodate the health and safety of the resident population, emphasizing calm environments to reduce animal stress.
