i have emailed a couple of places near me about fostering. its something i really want to do! i cant have any more bunnies of my own but would love to help others to find their forever homes! However i still need to ask permission from my parents and want to get all the info together that i need first for that discussion. Anyway, what are your expereinces of when you first fostered?

also do you know of any hutches/runs going for a reasonable price?

Our Fosterers are one of the most treasured parts of the branch :love: It is such a hard, but rewarding experience - and I'd urge anyone with a genuine love for animals to do it. As well as loving animals, being part of a team has to be important to you - we all lean on each other, and help each other through the bad times. Equally, we share the great times - when a long term animal is rehomed to someone wonderful, its just the best feeling. Most rescues will provide housing, I know we do. Go for it!! :D:D
 
ive conatcted my local rspca that has a section for rabbits specificately. (cant spell today:oops:) their website says there are 13 rabbits on their waiting list to come in :(
 
Fostering is something I would love to do too. Just need to talk hubby into it and need to bunny proof the garden better. I would to think I would be helping in some way, even if it is only by a very small part.

What criteria is there?

There is no set criteria, really. Jus obviously that all your own pets are neutered, vaccinated & living in adequate accommodation. There will be a home visit, and vet check done. But other than that, it is fairly similar to the adoption process :wave:

Oooo! Now you are tempting me!! I'm not too sure which rescue is nearest to us tbh. We are about 30 mins away from macc. I can feel serious conversations with hubby coming on:roll:

Sorry to hijack the thread btw:oops:
 
I've been thinking about this too - we are going to plan a nice big bunny shed area in when we sort out our garden over summer :)
My husband thinks it's a good idea because otherwise we'd just keep getting more and more permanent bunnies! :lol:

Whereabouts are you? We are based over a HUGE geographical area - we're scattered all over the Buxton/Macc/Rode Heath/Congleton area :wave:
