CLOSED TO ALL INTAKES

We are a registered non profit rescue with Service Alberta, since 2015. As we have grown and adapted to the needs of the buns that come into our care, we have become a sanctuary for older, behavioural issues, and medical case rabbits. We educate bun guardians and people that want to bring a bun addition into their lives that it is a lifetime commitment.

We were recently contacted by a family who generously offered to donate some supplies after their beloved bunny passed away.
Whenever we receive donations like this, we ask if they could share the cause of death if it is known.
We were heartbroken and shocked when we learned what had happened to their bunny. 😞💔
After spending approximately $4,000 on emergency veterinary care and surgery, their precious bunny sadly did not survive. 😞
The family has given us permission to share their painful experience in the hope that other rabbit parents can learn from it and potentially prevent another tragedy.
They had been feeding their rabbit a pellet mix that contained seeds.
During surgery, the veterinarian removed an undigested seed that had become lodged in the bunny’s small intestine. They hoped she would recover, but unfortunately, she passed away. 💔According to the family, a necropsy later confirmed that the intestinal blockage was caused by an undigested seed.💔💔
What makes this especially upsetting is that many products marketed as “complete & balanced” rabbit food contain seeds, corn, colorful pieces, and other ingredients that may lead rabbit owners to believe they are appropriate.
We cannot blame this family. The package had a picture of a rabbit on it.
It is completely understandable that someone would assume a product specifically marketed for rabbits is safe for rabbits.
A good-quality rabbit pellet should be uniform and should not contain whole seeds, corn kernels, dried peas, nuts, or colorful treat pieces. Rabbits have a specialized herbivorous digestive system designed primarily for a high-fiber diet. Hard, indigestible pieces can contribute to serious gastrointestinal problems, including potentially life-threatening obstruction.
Please be especially cautious with foods containing whole seeds or hard hulls. If you are unsure whether a food or treat is appropriate for your rabbit, speak with a rabbit-savvy veterinarian rather than relying solely on the picture or marketing on the package.
Please help us share this family’s story and educate other bunny parents. Something being sold for rabbits does not automatically mean it is a good or safe choice for them.
Our deepest condolences and gratitude go to this family for allowing us to share such a painful experience in the hope that it may help save another bunny.

We are in desperate need to raise funds for hay. Our usual suppliers just don't have what we need.
We can get compressed timothy hay for $13.00 a bale. Our goal is a full pallet which is 56 bales.
Wilber and hay for your consideration.

CAN YOU FEED A BUNNY TOO MANY GREENS? 🤔

The answer is Yes! Feeding too many greens to your bunny can disrupt their very delicate GI system, and can cause gas build up and bloating.

Instead of thinking of their servings of greens as a meal, try thinking of these servings as a light snack.

Bunnies should ideally be grazing on their hay throughout the day, and the more hay they eat, the better! Feeding bunnies small portions of greens, rather than large meal size portions, can help support their overall gut health and encourage them to graze on their hay more often.

If you’re not sure how much is too much, we encourage you to talk with your vet. Portion size can sometimes depend on your bunny, their age, their weight, and their personal tolerance for greens, in addition to other factors. Some bunnies can only tolerate a tiny bit of greens, while others aren’t able to tolerate any greens in their diet at all.

Udate on Simba

It is with a heavy heart I post that he was helped to the rainbow bridge.
He had fluid in his tummy and around his heart. He was in so much pain and wouldn't of made it through exploration surgery.
He had the best binkies, even though he was scared of his own shadow. His bill was 374.00 and we received 205.00 from donations today. We thank those who commented and/or sent a donation. We appreciate you so much.
