Homeless rabbit, Buenos Aires, 26-Jan-2013

Spotted yesterday, one block west of the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Cathedral on the Plaza de Mayo, on the square’s opposite end from the executive mansion, the Casa Rosada, where Evita gave solace and inspiration to the city’s descamisados, or shirtless ones.

This sign and frontless rabbit cage sit next to a hastily-assembled shelter, presumably where the author of this sign rests his head at night. According to the sign, a stroke of bad luck caused this man to lose his family and left him alone on the street. At least he has his rabbit.
