Hi,
I'm soon to be running a rabbit rescue here at my home.
The only thing is i'm doing this as an affiliate of another sanctuary who will be paying for the veterinary care etc for the rescued bunnies. I do want to check, does anyone know what are the regulations with regards to running an animal sanctuary?
I have been told i need to have an independant outbuilding with electricity , which i do have. I also need space for 5 or more rabbits. The police and the rspca need to be informed.

Is this likely to be the conditions of the charity or of the charitys commision. Is there anything else i haven't been made aware of. I would think the council would have to be made aware.
Can anyone give me any advice on what i should be checking or looking into. Also would i be better being an independant rescue and registering myself as a charity or is it better than i go through an existing rescue as an affliate?
Thanks for any help you can give me, very much appreciated. I couldn't get into the rabbit rescue section, not sure why so i posted here instead.
