Willa is looking for a patient, loving family who can give her the time, attention and affection she deserves.

This sweet nine-month-old rabbit may be a little shy at first but with patience, plenty of love and a few tasty treats, she blossoms into a playful and curious companion. Willa loves munching on fresh veggies, exploring her surroundings and keeping her mind active with enrichment toys like foraging puzzles. She would do best in a calm and quiet home that allows her to settle in at her own pace.

It’s hard to believe the mighty sweetheart Goliath has been waiting nearly a year for his forever home.

Goliath is a one-year-old rabbit with a big personality and an even bigger heart. He’s a gentle, curious and playful bunny who loves attention and truly enjoys spending time with his favourite people, especially when it involves pets and head massages. He adores exploring outside his enclosure, playing with enrichment toys and showing off his very best binkies. After a good play session, Goliath is more than happy to flop over and soak up all the love you have to give.

Kristy is a precious one-year-old sweetheart who has been patiently waiting for her forever home for nearly five months.

Kristy thrives in calm, quiet environments where she can take her time to adjust at her own pace. She starts off shy but once she’s comfortable, she’s affectionate and playful. With a little patience, some tasty treats and gentle encouragement, she’ll come out of her shell and reveal her wonderful personality. She enjoys batting her toys around and being pet (especially cheek scritches). Visit https://bit.ly/3NfUuKZ to adopt her!

You won’t believe what you made possible in a year:

Each year, when we put together our annual report, I’m struck by the same overwhelming feeling: gratitude.

When Bella arrived at the OHS, it looked like she had a really bad rash on top of her head. Her skin was inflamed, scabbing, and was losing hair. She needed help right away.

Our dedicated veterinary team quickly set to work to address her condition and make her comfortable. Testing revealed a skin condition that left her skin irritated and infected. Because Bella is shy and fearful, even routine exams can be stressful, so our goal was to be extra patient and gentle every step of the way.

With treatment underway, Bella is looking and feeling much better!

Thanks to your support, animals like Bella have a safe place to turn in their time of need.
