Hi Gang,
Lets see if I can get this right..... :?
I (already have 9 rabbits) - have just been asked by a neighbour to re-home a rabbit.
She asked me because she knows I love them and have lot's. I said "But Lucy, you don't have a rabbit!"
Lucy was asked by her friend in Eastbourne if she knew anyone who could take this rabbit in.
Lucy's friend already has 6 rabbits and OH won't let her keep this one. They live in a terraced house with 2 small kids and they don't have the space, time etc to take on another. She has taken the rabbit in temporarily but is not able to keep it.
Originally owned by some woman she knows who "doesn't want" the rabbit anymore. :roll:
I am thin on details but wanted to get the ball rolling. Is there anyone in the eastbourne area who can offer a forever home to this bun?
I am fearing the worst to be honest. There is some concern that the rabbit may be pregnant. So clearly not been spayed. I doubt if it has been to see the vet regularly and so potentially not had her jabs.
I will add more details tonight when I get them.
I would also like to offer this appeal on the rabbits behalf...
This isn't the most tragic circumstance for re-homing. We don't know if the rabbit has been treated badly. There is probably no dramatic or romantic story behind this rabbit. I doubt there will be a cross country drive to collect her....
She is just an unwanted rabbit.
Like so many before her, she will drift from pillar to post. Living a life of loneliness, boredom and little comfort. At the foot of the garden in her hutch, fed and watered and given away. Not necessarily mistreated, just neglected, ignored and discarded.
No cuddles on the sofa
No toys
No homemade rabbit treats
Nobody taking proud pictures of her
No website
No cleverly designed run and shed
No friends
Does anybody have room in their heart and house to take her in and make her feel like she is finally alive? Do you have a bun she can be bonded with? Can you imagine her underfoot in your kitchen begging for treats before tearing around the corner to go play with your other bun?
Is she allowed on your sofa for a kiss and a noserub?
Please can you remember the forgotten bun and give her a home?
Send me a PM if you are interested.
UPDATE
18 month old Black Dwarf Lop
Not Spayed
History - Lived with dunno for dunno how long. Was in a hutch with another rabbit and they fought.
Moved in with woman who "adopted" her as a pet for her 3 year old son
Decided she doesn't like the smell of rabbits. Gave her to rabbit lover in Eastbourne after 3 weeks.
Rabbit lover in Eastbourne has had her for 1 week and says she came in very stressed with a lot of bald patches growing back in. This rabbit has had 3 homes in 5 weeks and has the dubious pleasure of hamfisted 3 year old cuddles for 3 of them.
Rabbit lover is very keen that her next home is for good. She is even willing to have her spayed before she is adopted.
Good luck little bun and Godspeed.
