One year ago today Acomb Rabbit Rescue officially opened! :shock: :D

My garden went from this waste of space...

And a special thank you to Angie at BARC and Tree for all the advice on setting up the rescue, Jacks-Jane for the health advice, and to all the other rescues I've been in contact over the last year for various rescue situations who have accepted me and trusted me :love::love::love:
 
What a wonderful job you do Helen and all on your own. :love:

I must have missed you setting this up :oops:, as I would have been in Oz.

How did you come up with the name Acomb ?
 
Acomb is the area in York where I live. I thought about York Rabbit Rescue, but it sounded a bit grand for such a small rescue. I spent ages trying to think of a fancy name, but all the best ones are taken somewhere in the world, so I just settled for the area :oops: Sadly not everyone knows how to pronounce Acomb, so I usually get "Is that the rabbit place?" when people call :lol:
 
That is amazing - it really is! I don't know how you do you it but very glad those bunnies have found new homes through you. :thumb::thumb:

I guess if you called yourself York Rabbit Rescue you would be inundated with calls. Its a cute name. I bet I wouldn't say it correctly, I often mispronounce UK areas. Hopeless.:oops: I had a lessen on how to say Norfolk properly the other day. You wouldn't want to know what they told me to say for the folk part. :lol:
 
What a fantastic achievement in such a short time. :wave:

You're doing a brilliant job and it's lovely to see pics of the lucky bunnies who, thanks to you, now have lovely new homes. :love:
