May I please ask anyone who has volunteered to help in a bunnyrun up or down the coutry to remember beforehand to find out the Address and Telephone numbers of the people you are meeting, and taking the rabbit to.This is not much to ask for.
I just had a call from a fosterer who had been left effectively stranded in the midlands with two rabbits due to continue going North, thanks to someone who started an arguement stating she did not know any addresses or phone numbers, after i had spent time of my own this afternoon pm'ing and texting the information to my fosterer to tell her.
This ended in the two unrelated, unbonded rabbits being dumped out of their carriers TOGETHER onto the floor of a house and the person doing the next leg of the bun run, storming out.
This could have caused a big fight at my expense if they were injured, and to the rabbits health and well being.
This has brought up some major safety warnings with me, and I am rethinking ever sending a rabbit on a bunnyrun and stickng to my localised area, as i can not risk a rabbit's health and well being like this.
Luckily, both were caught before they noticed each other, and the fosterer will be driving another 2+ hours to get them to their destination.
This will mostly be at my expense in petrol.
So please, when you volunteer, make sure you have all the correct information before leaving.
