As some of you will know (having read my postings on here) there is a gorgeous bunny loose on the grounds of uni accommodation in York.
It would appear it's a she and has had possibly several litters of rabbits with a wild rabbit.
It uses a rabbit burrow - we, sadly, found dead baby bunnies near the burrow.
My lovely friend (who is a real rabbit expert and runs a rabbit rescue) tells me the big problem is that if this bunny now has a husbunny it could be a problem and it is obviously used to being free now so may get depressed if domesticated again - also it obviously has baby bunnies now.
I have been in contact with 2 lovely people from a rabbit rescue who are happy to take this bunny and help me catch her if we think it's the right thing to do.
It would appear she has been loose now for around 6 months at least. Would I be doing her more harm than good by catching her or does she need to be caught and given a loving home? She is clearly a domesticated rabbit and I am really worried about her.
Thought I would get general opinions before heading for York again - I have contacted the officials at the uni to see if they can help. I am more worried that this bunny will keep having more and more babies and more and more will die.
I also don't like to think of her living in the wild when she's domesticated. Trying to weigh up pros and cons before I do anything else.
