The 29 upsetting pics update pt 108

picked up 7 more of the large group and sadly some are in a very poor state

First grey nethie doe now Pipit..seems fine apart from overweight and long nails



then another nethie..again long nails but fine..Flamingo




And a lop doe, now Goose..this is the cage she has been living in you can see how high the bedding and droppings are



Then a pair of lop girls first Dove seems ok but messy bum and doesn't know how to move about



Then her friend, Swan,..sadly this girl does not know how to stand/sit up as the build up of filth in their cage was so bad they only had about 6 inches of space ..she has a very messy bum and will need to learn how to stand up/hop



her bum


Then Finch..a buck..very messy underneath, very sore hocks, very underweight. After vet check found to have dreadful molar spurs but needs building up a bit before can have a ga to sort out



His bum..shows sore hocks and his genitals are very gummed up as his scent glands were cemented with filth



This is the carrier he has been living in



and some of the thick filth which explains his sore hocks..it was about 4 inches deep and rotting at the bottom



Lastly we come to the one that made me cry..Canary



A very sweet, very underweight girl who was covered in huge clumps of poo and urined matted fur...when cleaned off a bit her skin is raw all over her legs and tum..one of her legs is malformed.
Vet found her to have molar spurs and said Canary was the worse case of rabbit neglect he had ever seen

her underside



her legs after some of the muck had been taken off



A dreadfully sad situation..

Huge thanks to Ange(thumpinbun), Cathy H and Kate B for fostering extras to help with these rabbits..couldn't do it without you

Poor bunnies

They're all so beautiful. I hope they'll be ok and find good homes.

Poor bunnies hopefully something can be done. I know there is no excuse but I would imagine the lady was too poorly to care for them at least she sought help in the end.

oh dear god those poor rabbits, ill get making some sort of arrangement for fundraising to help you out with these i wish i could help any other way!

All I can say is having a go at the lady will not make any difference.....I kept my mouth firmly shut until I got in my car..then cried and swore all the way home
I still have others to collect and at present have no space..so worried about them

crying now awwww poor bunnies
sending lots of vibes their way :shock:

:shock::shock::shock: That's sickening Poor buns. Has the lady's condition affected her mind? Can she be 'excused' (for want of a better word as IMO...there is no excuse) for their condition because of her illness?

I really don't know what to say Jill. I am so upset.

You know I will raise as much cash as I can to help these poor rabbits.

xx

Awfulness I hope they thrive under your care Jill.

Are some/all of them related? There seem to be a lot with broken dutch markings and blue eyes.

Oh no.

taking deep breaths trying to stop the tears
......u are doing the right thing hun i dont think i could of helped telling her what i think but u have to think of the others that are still there dont u?

Those poor bunnies
Words cannot express....

oh gosh that's so sad. Thank goodness their past owner decided to do what's best for them and get them to a rescue. Well done for taking them on. I admire people who run rescues like you.

those poor bunnies I really hope they can all be nursed back to health.

Same here

I defy anyone not to be touched by those photos, It's such a terribly sad situation and those poor defenseless creatures who rely on us humans to do right by them have been let down badly.

Let us know how we can help best please Gill

Poor bunnies, so sad but you are right, no amount of moaning at the owner will help.

You will let us know if there is anything we can do to help - perhaps some Tesco/Asda or Sainsbury gift vouchers to help buy tasty veggies and supplies?
