We have recently taken in 3 rather special kittens. They are all Polydactyl so they have extra toes which makes them look like they are wearing little mittens. You can read more about about them on our website, they are Jinx and Star brother and sister and of course Toes the handsome boy featured here.

❄️ Keeping Rabbits Safe & Warm This Winter ❄️
As the temperature drops, our outdoor bunnies need a little extra help to stay cosy and healthy. Here are some simple but important tips to keep your rabbits safe in the cold:

🌟 Warm, Dry Housing
• Add plenty of extra straw or hay for insulation.
• Use snuggle-safe heat pads if possible.
• Cover hutches with waterproof, windproof covers, leaving good ventilation.
• Make sure the sleeping area is raised off the ground and protected from drafts.

🌟 Check Water Frequently
In freezing weather, water bowls and bottles can ice over quickly. Rabbits must have constant access to fresh water, so:
• Check and refill several times a day.
• Use bottle covers or insulated wraps.
• Keep spare bottles indoors so you can swap them out when they freeze.
• Bowls often freeze slower than bottles—using both can help ensure they always have something to drink.

🌟 Extra Food for Extra Energy
Rabbits burn more calories staying warm. Offer unlimited good-quality hay and a little extra veg to support their needs.

🌟 Daily Health Checks
Cold weather can hide health issues. Make sure your rabbits are active, eating normally, and staying dry.

Let’s keep our fluffy friends warm, hydrated, and safe all winter long!

🌙 Meet Lovely Luna! 🌙

Our newest rabbit arrival is the beautiful Luna, who has come into our care due to her owner’s ill health. 🐰💛

Luna is a 5-year-old female, fully vaccinated, and will soon be neutered before she’s ready to find her forever home — ideally with a handsome neutered male bunny to bond with! 💕

She’s a gentle and sensitive girl who’s finding the change a little challenging, but today she’s been out enjoying the sunshine and starting to settle in. ☀️🌿

Welcome, Luna! 🐇💖

Why Rehome a Rescue Rabbit? 💚

Adopting a rescue rabbit is one of the most rewarding things you can do.

🌿 They have wonderful personalities — curious, gentle, and full of character.
🏡 They can live happily indoors or outdoors, as long as they have space, enrichment, and companionship.
🐇 All our rabbits are vet-checked, vaccinated, and neutered, ready to start their new lives.
❤️ You’ll have the support of our experienced team every step of the way.

There’s nothing quite like seeing a once-nervous bunny learn to trust, play, and stretch out contentedly in their new home. It’s a small act of kindness that makes a huge difference.

If you have room in your heart and home, please consider adopting — not shopping. Your new best friend might just be waiting for you at Hounslow Animal Welfare Society. 💕

👉 Please share this post to help more rescue rabbits find the loving homes they deserve.
