We have lots of compassion for people who have rabbits who they are struggling to bond together but equally we worry about how much a desire to keep loved rabbits together can get in the way of the rabbits' best interests.

The truth is, some rabbits just aren't a positive match for each other and it's unfair to resort to stress bonding methods to try to force a non-beneficial bond.

We need to encourage the bravery and selflessness to put them first and sometimes if you love someone, you have to let them go and find a more compatible companion.

Speaking of expensive rabbits! We recently found out when our guy Frosty was sick last month, his liver lobe was indeed torsed 360°. He also has 5 broken vertebrae and pulmonary fibrosis(scar tissue in his lungs likely from previous pneumonia infection.)

We are all amazed by what a tough bunny he is. He truly acts like a totally normal rabbit! But he is on two different pain meds for life already because as we know, these prey animals are masters at masking when they’re in pain and we are big advocates of not letting them suffer in silence! We also expect him to become disabled by the spinal issues at a younger age than most. Dr Ness wants to check his liver values regularly. As long as he isn’t having any problems long term, he won’t need to have the affected lobe removed 🤞🏼 Sometimes when bunnies recover from LLT with supportive care vs removal of the lobe, they are prone to frequent stasis bouts so that’s what we are watching for!

We are up to $8294 for our matching goal for this month! Thanks so much to everyone who has donated so far 🙏🏼 Your donations help us help bunnies like Frosty ☃️

Less than a week until our matching campaign ends and we are only halfway there 🥴 any amount helps, even a dollar. What also helps more than you think is liking, commenting & sharing! We received $6 from likes, comments & shares in July and August! It may not sound like much but it does add up!

Diablo was rejected a couple times this month so he’s still on the market. Despite his name, he’s a very nice boy! He’s looking for a home with at least one compatible rabbit friend, at least 60 sq ft of space at all times and a guardian who is familiar and preferably experienced with the health problems lops are prone to 🤩

We do the bonding for all approved adopters to minimize the stress on everyone.

Cute bunny of the day. Adoptable Skyler sits on her bed and waits for her foster mom to pet her. She’s looking for a home with at least one compatible friend, lots of room to run, no kids and an experienced guardian who doesn’t mind that she’s a little spicy sometimes. We do the bonding for all approved adopters ✨

Sorry no cute bunny pic but behold! Our first sponsorship packs went out this weekend! Did you know you can sponsor one(or more) of our sanctuary buns?!?! For the low price of $10/month you’ll get a certificate of sponsorship, info sheet and photo for your sponsored bun(s) and a sticker. You’ll also be added to our holiday mailing list 🤶🏼 Sponsoring helps us with the cost of food, daily medications and supplies for these guys who aren’t candidates for adoption.
