    Look what Doris did!

    http://imgur.com/a/6RY0e Nobun was hurt but three pairs have had their runs wrecked and have had to move. Hopefully we can get them sorted quickly. The feed shed roof is shredded too.

    Naughty rabbits!

    This morning during the meds round I got mugged! I put the bottle of metacam and the syringe of fibreplex down while I knelt down in the shed to pick up Verbena to give them to her. Sunshine grabbed the tube of fibreplex and while I gave him a squirt of it as he seemed to like it so much...

    Oh dear, 111 rabbits!

    It is so hard to say no! And two more are coming tomorrow! And there is another I have promised to take. That will be 24 we have taken in this year. Time to bolt the doors until next year:( And do lots more bonding. We only have 40 proper places, the only reason we can hold so many rabbits is...

    It seems to be bonding time.

    We have just taken in nine new rabbits and have one more coming next weekend. And we had no extra spaces! The only thing for it is lots of bonding. So far it seems to be going well, apart from losing one very ill little new comer, who did not get much time to enjoy her new friends, but at...

She was one of the first group of rabbits that came into Hopper Haven the year we started. she arrived with a litter of three day old babies that I transported in a shoe box full of...

    The best bit

    Absolutely the best part of running a sanctuary is the day you get to let a new rabbit out into his/her permanent full sized accomodation. Yesterday it was the turn of Winter, a five year old English marked brown and white standard rex buck. He arrived a month ago just before the VHD outbreak...

    Available Rescue: Hyacinth - home as single house rabbit wanted, midlands

    I have been beaten twice over. It doesn't sit well with me to rehome rabbits to live alone, but Hyacinth seems to be a hyperactive soul who finds fighting with other rabbits extremely enjoyable. She dives in and clamps her teeth into any potential mate and I am not prepared to have her injure...

    Available Rescue: Diego - home as single house rabbit wanted - midlands

    I have been beaten:( Despite my best efforts and lots of lost sleep I can not find another rabbit that Diego will get on with. Jane Dexter has also tried numerous times to bond him and failed. I thought I had cracked it once and he went to a new home, but then fought with the doe I thought I...

    Available Rescue: Rehoming clogged up with hard to rehome rabbits

    We now have so many hard to rehome rabbits that we find it very hard to take more in. And this is in the rehoming section, leaving aside the nearly 100 permanent resident rabbits. The ones that are sticking here are all healthy (they would be permanent residents if they weren't). More...

    I thought I had lost Rosie

    I went into the shed to give meds to the rabbits that need it every morning, and couldn't find Rosie to give her hers. There are nine in that group so I had to count several times to be sure she wasn't there, especially as three of them are very similiarly coloured harlequins, and there are...

    Bramble

    Bramble, the gorgeous bun in our logo, quietly left us on Saturday. He went surrounded by his 5 companions, peacefully, after a long and full life. We miss you Bramble, run free old man, we won't forget you.

    Orchid and Sam

    The rabbit year has not begun well at all. Poor Orchid was put to sleep as the enormous inoperable lump on her neck combined with her worsening snuffles, arthritic paws and the bitter cold meant that her quality of life had deteriorated too far. She has passed beyond suffering but leaves her...

    Hopper Haven's 2008

    2008 was a hectic year for Hopper Haven. At one point we had 175 rabbits here and 91 guinea pigs:shock: There has been little time for anything except rabbits and guinea pigs in my life. But there is nothing I would rather be doing than helping these so often abused creatures live the lives...

    Prolapsed rectums

    I had a litter of babies come in a month ago in which one had a prolapsed rectum. With pain relief and bathing in salt water I was able to get it back in and she was alright for a few weeks although in the meantime it happened to another of the litter. The vet put hers back in and suggested a...
