Thank you for your kind words about Dexter it was appreciated on the very sad loss of the little man.
Following a PM it was found he had an issue with one of his lungs and it had collapsed when they tried to resuscitate him making it impossible to do so. There was no reason to suspect he had a problem prior to having pre med and examination. So many clients often say to us they are concerned re GAs and their buns having one. Dexter was a very rare case and he had not even been given the main GA but of course if an animal has an underlying health condition then sadly there is very little that can be done. Tk u Jason we know if you could have saved him, you would have....

A post which I never expected to have to do...such a sad day our young French died today just 16 weeks old not even started his life and was already very much part of our family. He was going to be a new husbun to Raven who has been next to him for almost 4 weeks so upsetting for her. She has been stressing all day wondering where he had gone. Words cannot express how a loss of only knowing him for a few weeks can hurt so much. He was cheeky and funny and loved having cuddles. Sadly his heart stopped during a routine procedure at the vets.
RIP Dexter

So much awareness about dogs trapped in cars in the summer, but what about rabbits trapped in hutches?! Many die, in this heat, in a fur coat they can't remove, forgotten about. Neglect is cruelty! Whilst wild rabbits keep cool underground in their warrens, domestic rabbits haven't got that option and rely on us to protect them. Duty of care! During heatwaves it's best to bring them indoors and set them up in a cool ventilated room, until the temperatures goes down.

Oliver home and had his over ground tooth at the back of his mouth shortened to prevent continuing ulceration of his mouth. The procedure was carried out with some difficulty due to him having no incisors to insert mouth clip around but all done now.
The funny thing when I collected him someone had taken the trouble to throw a whole carrot in his pet carrier. Rather than waste it I gave it to Elsie his wife bun. Was greeted this morning with Oliver sucking on a green bit of carrot top bless! At least he gave it his best shot...
For those that don't know a rabbit who has had his or her incisors removed do not have the luxury of biting a carrot we bunny owners grate the carrot fine so they can manage to eat it.

Please meet Timmy and Charlie two of our regular guests who are seeking a new home. Both get on well and are looking for a home where you could offer them a safe garden to roam. They are older tortoise and both healthy. They live outdoors and hibernate for winter months so no requirement for heat lamps etc
If you feel you could offer these two boys a new home please get in touch.

Adopted 💕
Apache is a 4 year old, male Angora from France. He found himself in rescue as his owners moved away. He was originally looked after by the owners mother, but unfortunately she struggled to groom him, so relinquished him to the rescue. Apache is now on the look out for a new home where someone can maintain his beautiful coat and have a female bun friend.

Think she maybe related to Zeb

Female Rabbit for Adoption 🐰
On Behalf of Pawz For Thought, Sunderland, Tyne & Wear.

Rosie ( 2 years old )

I am a beautiful girl and I really need a loving, new home.

Rosie is amazing! She is absolutely huge, we suspect she is a German Lop. She will need to live as a free range indoor rabbit or in a shed or equivalent. Rosie needs a wonderful companion who will laze about with her and enjoy life in the calm lane. She loves a stroke! She has also shown us some amazing binkies, it is evident she is enjoying life with lots of space! Rosie will be spayed soon and will then be ready for her new home. Rosie is 2 years old.

If you are interested in adoption please complete the adoption application on the link below and the rabbit team will contact you within a week.
