🏡 HOLIDAY FOSTERS 🏡

We are desperately looking for foster homes for bunnies during holiday periods. Holiday covers are usually 2-4 weeks and you would be given a temporary indoor set up.

Desperately needing:
🏡 Easter holiday cover
🏡 1st-15th June
🏡 Summer holiday cover

All you need is a small indoor area for a puppy pen 🐇

Temporary fostering is a great opportunity to get introduced to bunnies and find out if you get the bunny bug. 🐰 You would have your foster buddy you are covering for and an abundance of support and advice from the whole team.

🐇CARE ASSISTANTS🐇

Are you interested in or working towards a career in animal care? Get right in the deep end with working directly with the rabbits themselves at the rescue.

We are looking for those who want experience in exotics/small animal care or mother/daughter teams where the daughter is considering a career in animal care. The training and hands on experience you will receive is an excellent opportunity to work directly with rabbits.

Note: this is not a cuddling bunnies role. It's very hard work physically and requires reliability. You must be able to commit to a full work experience placement or ongoing one shift per week/month.

When the first baby flies the nest, it's always an emotional time as we pour our heart and souls into raising little ones at the rescue. But we couldn't be prouder of this incredible girl. 🥹🩵

Beinn Teallach is our first Hoppy Hillwalker baby to hop off to her new home. ⛰️ She was really ready to leave her siblings and get a proper buddy. Last week she was transitioned inside and has been matched up, and now off she's hopped. Her new friend is very excited and eager to meet her. 🏡

I wonder who will be next!

Our newest fluffster on the block is butterfly ears himself - Brimstone 😍 🦋

He's grieving his bun friends badly and desperately needs a new buddy 😭 Having known him a long time and how adventurous and cheeky he is, it's hard to see him like this. 💔

We can bond him up as a pair for anyone who has no buns and would love a little fluffster 🦁 or if you have a bun needing a buddy, he might just be the one!

Adoption applications/enquiries to [email protected]

We are processing applications rapidly atm and have lots of bonding spaces coming up for singles to get paired up. 🐇🩵🐇

🐇 PARTICIPATE 🐇

How to get involved in BWIM:

1. Sign petitions about welfare including ones aiming to stop bad welfare practises. The more signatures they get the greater the impact they have. This can lead to parliamentary votes and/or press coverage.

2. Share welfare campaigns with others. Do you have a school bulletin, work newsletter or how about leaflets?

3. Volunteer with a rabbit rescue. There is no greater way to get actively involved helping rabbits by volunteering at a rescue. You can get hands on with the rabbits themselves, or foster a rabbit who needs a home.

4. Use your social media following and reach to do good. Use it to share information about bunny welfare. Why not save and share infographics? We have folders full you can save and share about all sorts of rabbit topics.

5. Fundraising is a fantastic way to actively help rescues save more rabbits in need. Why not do a bake sale or raffle? Or set up a monthly pledge donation to a rescue?

6. Spend your money wisely. Actively support and spend your money in shops who support rabbits. Boycotting anywhere that sells and supports the selling of rabbits makes a huge impact as a consumer. Consider the ethical credentials of your animal feed suppliers. Buying cruelty-free products with the leaping bunny logo physically saves rabbits lives who are tested on. Support businesses who create cruelty-free products. *Be careful about huge international companies that sell into China as they will still test on rabbits. * You don't have to be a label expert, visit the ethical consumer website and find out which companies are ethical and not.

Is there anyone who would love to grow their fluffle this year? Ballroom & Bachata would be perfect additions to make a trio or join a group. 🩵🐇🐇🐇🐇

This dancing duo would love to have their own Diversity, as they are real team players. Bachata is a real buns bun and Ballroom loves bunnies as much as he loves humans. They are both super sweet and have low ranking temperaments.

Ballroom absolutely adores affection and snuggles and will lavish you in kisses. Bachata loves to play with toys and learn new things. They enjoy being both indoors and outdoors and don't need as much space as a young pair as they are very chilled and like their home comforts. They don't like slippy floors so will stay on their rugged area which makes things nice and easy!

They've been turned down twice by adopters looking to adopt a pair because of their age. 💔

Please share our appeal for them 🙏

Bastiodon has avoided the limelight up until now, but it's his time to shine ✨️

Living with this little guy is like living with a cute puppy dog who wants to be snuggled and played with constantly. Everything about him is absolutely adorable! He loves to dance, rough house, flops and hunkers the second you start stroking him, and will dig the blanket if you dare stop. He's full of fun, love and has the biggest heart. 🐼

Bastio loves:
🫶 Being firmly stroked and massaged all over top to tail
🫶 Throwing things and picking things up with his front teeth
🫶 Digging his blanket, the bed covers and the grass
🫶 Yanking a treat off you and taking it to the litter tray to scoff
🫶 Soft plush beds for snoozing in

Bastio hates:
🚮 Lying on firm surfaces
🚮 Hard flooring
🚮 Being on his own
🚮 If you hold onto the treat while he tries to pull it off you
🚮 Being on high surfaces
🚮 Cables being in his way

He's been at the rescue 6 months now and he doesn't want to wait another 6 months when he's already an older boy. Can you help us find his hoppy ever after?

🐇 EDUCATE 🐇

How to become a rabbit educator:

1. Invite welfare organisations and rescues to your work to give talks or share their campaigns to work group forums or noticeboards.

2. Teach others what you've learned. Explain how you started and where you've learned. Keep your story relatable, kind and share your tips.

3. Have posters and leaflets printed off and kept in your bag/car for opportunities you can leave them in appropriate places. For example can you leave a poster in your local vet for them to put up in the reception? What about some leaflets in waiting areas?

4. Share educational links and resources to people you know are interested in getting rabbits or who already have them. It's handy to have a memo saved on your phone with a list of quick to share links.

5. If you know a vet professional personally who is interested in rabbits or have been using one who isn't clued up enough on rabbits, how about encouraging them to do some exotic CPD on rabbits? If you've had a negative experience with a practise treating your rabbit, providing feedback is important as the caregiver on how they can improve experiences for rabbits. That could include sending them welfare organisations guides to becoming a rabbit savvy practise.

6. Teaching the future generation about rabbit care is vital. Welfare organisations provide educational programmes and projects for schools and nurseries. Why not ask your child's teacher if the class could invite one? If you home school, there are free online activities available too that your child can get involved in. If you have a young one in your family, get them involved in your own rabbit care and teach them how to be a responsible rabbit carer.

A little update on Biston:

This sad little man arrived at the rescue very sick. He's dealing with multiple issues but the main ones causing him such trouble are that he has both EC and an inner ear infection.

Both of these conditions can have similar symptoms, and too often it is pinned on just being EC. In the majority of cases of lop eared rabbits dealing with a head tilt + spinning + nystagmus, they are in fact dealing with both simultaneously.

Sadly Biston has no immune system response, his white cell count is almost non existent. He's on a 24 hour nursing regime in our hospital and we are really hoping he can keep fighting and pull through this. 🙏

He's been the best little patient throughout all of this so far, he guzzles his liquid feed, head nudges you and purrs away while being stroked. We adore him so much and he gets excited now when he hears our voice and tries to stand up to get over to us. 🥲

Hope you're all staying cosy this weekend. We have all the heaters on, straw packed in and bunnies are cosied up. 🥰 but for some of them like these two outdoorsy ones - it was a play in the snow kinda day! ❄️

New year, new sanctuary bunny 🖤

We were devastated and demoralised that after all the trauma they faced and finally getting the homes they deserved, another Inspirational girl has ended up returned back with us. 💔

For no fault of her own, circumstances in the home has led Biddy now back to us. For those who remember their welfare case, it was one of the most horrific we've experienced. Used as breeding machines, petrified and in squalor conditions.

Being totally transparent, if we had known the homes for Biddy and Bett weren't going to be 'forever', we would never have adopted them out. None of these buns will ever truly recover from the trauma they faced and this has impacted their behaviour for life. More wild than domestic, they need a quiet safe and nurturing environment where humans will allow them to be at peace with their rabbit companions.

Each time one has come back, we made the decision that these girls would not be rehomed again and would become sanctuary bunnies with us.

Welcome back little Biddy, safe with us where you won't be let down by humans ever again. We promise. ❤️‍🩹

There's nothing that drains your cup and fills it more than rescuing domestic rabbits. It's a constant emotional rollercoaster.

These complex, fragile, stubborn and quietly loud little animals need us to care for them, but rarely want or appreciate being cared for due to their independent nature. And yet while they often loath human intervention, they wouldn't survive without it.

And all of these reasons is why we allow them to constantly drain our cup. Because no one needs advocating for more in Scotland than the rabbit. 🩵🐇

*Ring ring* Hello? Hi, we are ready and waiting - Beehive & Buzzy 🐝 #adoptus #adoptdontshop

Biston is getting stronger each day 💪 He really is a little fighter and doesn't want to give up 🙏 He's now standing up strongly, moving around his space and even going to his litter tray, toileting lots, holding his head up straight, asking for head rubs, and guzzling solid food. 🩵 #ecrabbit #ecuniculi #ecuniculirabbit #innerearinfection #specialneedsrabbit #disabledrabbit #minilop

Do they ever deserve or appreciate things? No. Do they always get things? Yes. 😆 We love rabbits but they are definitely not the animal to get if you want gratitude. 🫠😅

The BBBB rescue rabbits were all thoroughly spoiled this morning thanks to you all! 🥰 Hop over to our stories to see our boarding bunnies enjoying their forage baskets. 🪹 To those who sent donations and gifts to the rescue bunnies - thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts. 🎁

A huge thank you to Pledge a Pound Pledge a pound for the box of goodies for the rescue buns. 🎁 Their Xmas box appeal helps many rabbit rescues each year and we appreciate all their support they have given us throughout the years. 🙏🩵🐇

Isn’t anyone looking for Boina? It breaks our hearts that she’s been in rescue for 9 months now. She’s an amazing bunny, and we just can not understand why people aren’t queuing up to adopt her. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Boina, she’s healthy, there’s no issues with her at all. We can provide bonding here at the rescue or support you if you wish to bond at home. If you are interested in adopting her please reach out, if you have any questions about her please ask. We’re more than happy to chat to you about Boina if you’d like to know more. We can even arrange for you to visit her at her foster home in Edinburgh or do a video call with her if you’re further away. We adopt UK wide 🙏🏻 You can contact us at [email protected]
