Family ‘absolutely devastated’ after Biscuit the bunny stolen at Markham Fair
Biscuit was reported missing this weekend by organizers of the Markham Fair after its owners entered it into a contest.
The McClelland family of Markham is heartbroken after their beloved pet bunny, Biscuit, vanished from the Markham Fair. Biscuit, a Holland Lop rabbit, was entered into a contest and mistakenly left behind. The family learned he was missing Sunday night when they were informed of his disappearance. "We were absolutely devastated.
The kids were all heartbroken," said Victoria McClelland. The family searched the fairgrounds, discovering Biscuit's cage was locked, leading them to believe he had been stolen. Fair organizers confirmed the theft, stating Biscuit was taken from its enclosure at the pet and poultry building on the evening of October 3. Volunteers and exhibitors noticed the theft.
Fair organizers expressed disappointment, emphasizing that the animal was cared for by exhibitors who invest significant time, effort, and love into raising them. The McClelland's 10-year-old daughter Eliana is determined to retrieve her "little champion" with a custom sweater featuring Biscuit's image. Police have been contacted, and the family urges anyone who spots the bunny for sale online to report it.
