"When Chantelle Paige-Mulligan and her family want "When Chantelle Paige-Mulligan and her family wanted to bring a new furry friend into their lives, Mill Valley-based nonprofit SaveABunny was the perfect fit, and it wasn’t long before they adopted Pop-Tart the bunny to accompany their mini pig and rescue mutt. True to SaveABunny’s mission, Pop-Tart was a legally released lab rabbit they took under their wing in hopes she would find a loving home just like Paige-Mulligan’s. 'She hops up and bumps her nose on us for cuddles constantly and has far more personality than I thought a bunny could,' Paige-Mulligan says. While many bunnies are taken in by SaveABunny, Pop-Tart’s transition from a lab to a family is what the nonprofit considers 'a beautiful example of the healing, hope and inspiration that SaveABunny embodies and champions regarding rabbit welfare.' Fellow bunny lovers have plenty of ways to support this mission as well and get a dopamine boost through SaveABunny’s opportunities. Browse their website to see rabbits eligible for adoption or fostering, or sign up to volunteer if you can’t commit just yet." ✍️ Emma Robertson 🐇 Pop-Tart, @saveabunny #MarinMagazine #MarinCounty #SaveABunny #PetAdoption

Believe it or not, that’s 240 issues, around 27,840 produced pages and 835,200,000 total reader impressions for our print product over 20 years — a lot of ink and paper. In that time we’ve covered Marin County’s reaction to a nationwide pandemic and dove into important issues with award-winning articles on race equity, homelessness, climate change and more. We hope you enjoy this trip through the last 10 years as we look back at notable stories.” ✍️Mimi Pinson and Emma Robertson Details in bio 🔗 #MarinMagazine #MarinCounty #Magazine #Journalism #Editorial @mimitowle
"For many families and individuals, adoption is th "For many families and individuals, adoption is the chance at a new narrative, a new future, a new path. In most cases biological parents put their children up for adoption when they know they are not able to care for them sufficiently, while adoptive parents seek to adopt children when they cannot or do not wish to have children of their own. Many adoptions unfold through systems that protect the identities of people on both sides of the family equation. Sometimes, however, adopted children do whatever they can once they reach adulthood to track down their biological parents and other family members and establish grown-up relationships. Here in Marin County, these reconnections happen all the time." ✍️ Matt Villano Read the full story in our bio 🔗 #marinmagazine #marincounty #adoption #family
