Onto our next chapter, time stops for no one.
We watched a storm develop and enter the gulf creating a great hurricane Hurricane Harvey, which then hit Texas. Hurricane Harvey slammed the southern coast, then turned east and headed our way. When it began raining we brought all of the bunnies inside the house. As we hustled 3 neighborhood boys came out of nowhere and helped us to move the bunnies. The water was rising quickly. Water had already flooded the feed shed everything was gone. We left behind cages, it just took too much time to remove cages. As the last of the bunnies were removed from the pen the water was thigh high and rising. When all bunnies had been moved, our rabbit room had now contained 210 bunnies and 1 bag of feed. Safe bunnies, all alive and well. As morning approached, the outside had became a sea of rainwater and still rising. As the rain eased and flooding slowed our nerves settled just a little. When the water began to recede and we assessed the damage we allowed some of the bunnies back in the pen. The very next morning, the water began rising again. Friends showed up and helped move bunnies and cages to their current location. By this time I was running on day 3 of no sleep and very stressed. When I noticed some of the bunnies becoming ill, all I could do was panic. I called one of the other rabbit rescues here in Texas with plans to send out my healthy bunnies, but we were completely blocked in and had no way to send. By this time feed was running low. I was told I was making my babies sick, my heart sunk. I hadnt thought about my stress and how it affects the already stressed buns. After tears and 2 hours sleep I followed the instructions the other rabbit rescue had given me. As I was out managing the bunnies a truck pulled in the drive with a load of feed and hay. Over the next few days we lost many precious bunnies, due to stress. Our original bunny pen collapsed week 3 of flooding. The hurricane bunnies started to come in the day the rain stopped. Twenty seven hurricane bunnies the first week after the flood. So many bunnies kept safe, I am so thankful for everyone that helped us.
A roof over our heads.
After the storm is written in history, and the water is all gone, the building begins. With what we could use from the collapsed bunny pen, we put together a structure for the bunnies. The new pen is drafty and in some places leaky, but it is their new home. I will be doing all I can to get us on our feet and running.
