The Christmas buns that were feeling photogenic this morning!

Hello lovely people. Hywel here. Non rabbit post! Just intrepid call out for anyone interested! As you probably know from our chats on the driveway over the years, we love to travel. And I'm a radio presenter too...

As part of my travels, I've fallen in love with Californian and American wines. I also love a quiz. And Christmas films. So I've put all that together.

I've spent a while finding wines that will blow your taste buds away from Europe across the Atlantic forever. And I'm doing a wine tasting with Christmas Movie Quiz, with the help of Jimmy Stewart (well, Ai Jimmy).

If you're interested, get your tickets soon, I promise it's going to be at the very least delicious, at the most - a very fun evening.
If you know anyone in the Chorlton area tag them in. These wins have been testiest on Connoisseurs AND people who 'DO NOT like wine', and everyone was unanimous in their love for the four wines that will be included in the ticket price.
Here's the link, just up, get them while they're hot. Please tag in anyone you know who might be interested!

May do more of these in Manchester before Christmas too, watch this space. But the Horse and Jockey is a LOVELY setting upstairs, and the evening will be lovely - adults only.

An enchanting, amusing, and delicious evening featuring exquisite USA wines paired with a delightful Christmas Movie Quiz.

Playtime for these two.

Is muesli bad for your buns?

Rabbits are very selective eaters and have a mighty sweet tooth. This means that they will purposely seek out sugary foods.

As muesli is a food mix, rabbits will actually pick out the sweetest bits and leave the rest!

This means that they are not getting the minerals and nutrients they need for a healthy digestive system.

This is why you should move away from muesli and stick to a diet that consists of 85% feeding hay, 10% leafy greens, and 5% extruded pellets.

We're sorry for the graphic image, but we do think it is very important to know why we RECOMMEND spaying & neutering your rabbit.
This mass was removed from Rihanna during her spaying today. Rihanna is one of the bunnies that we rescued from the Jenada Isle community.
Spaying/ neutering a rabbit can significantly increase their life expectancy, and benefit their general health and well being as well. Studies have shown that there is an 80% chance a female rabbit will develop uterine cancer by the age of 4 if she is not spayed. Male rabbits are at risk for testicular cancer if they are not neutered.
Sterilized rabbits make better companions, are less aggressive, and are much easier to litter box train, as they will not mark their territory. And by being neutered/spayed they will not contribute to the overpopulation of unwanted rabbits like what happened at the Jenada Isle community.
As you can see there are many benefits to spaying/neutering a rabbit, so please have your bunny fixed as soon as possible.
Thank you.

Summer holidays!

Is your bunny insured?

Bunnies can be very delicate and occasionally can go into gut stasis with a change of environment or after a long journey. Vets bills are much more expensive than they used to be…this is for a 24 stay recently.

The fee for going out of hours (when bunny fell poorly) was £200 alone.

All settled in.

How do I make friends with a rabbit? It’s a question we get asked a lot, especially for children trying to create a bond.

Let them come to you. And keep letting them come to you. They'll never ever enjoy being grabbed!How To Start A Bunny Hotel https://youtu.be/pYqXF3Ao0nYOr c...
