Yep we've been keeping this one quiet but thanks to these 4 beauties being officially signed over now it's time to gush 😍

3 weeks old tomorrow and what a whirlwind 3 weeks it has been. The 1st week was particularly stressful due to a disgruntled momma bunny not having enough milk and getting upset with the demands being made by 4 hungry mouths. It was touch and go particularly for Thistle who seemed unable or unwilling to properly latch on.

But here they are!! 4 healthy babies full of beans and baby binkies!

These little pompoms weren't something we had planned for but there was no way we wouldn't do everything possible to give them their best start in life ❀️

Sadly, a couple of days before they arrived, we lost our beloved old man, Billy, who finally succumbed to his age at approximately 12 years old πŸ˜”
For those who aren't aware, we founded BFr in honour of Billy and the wonderful bunny he became post-rehab. We can't help but feel that these babies are sign from Billy that it's ok to look forward instead of back as we get closer to our transition from rehab to sanctuary.

Our costs already being more than we can currently handle, this added pressure of babies to care for, vaccinate, eventually neuter beyond a time we were planning to stop such outgoings, etc is not going to be easy but we will make it work as we always do 🀞❀️

If you are able to help with any amount at all towards their future needs or the upcoming costs of our remaining operations please please consider a contribution via PayPal or bank transfer. Everything counts and just a fiver will buy a bag of junior nuggets to get some much needed calories into these little balls of fluff πŸ₯°

We will also compile a new Amazon wishlist shortly and add it in the comments for anyone preferring to help in that way x

Hiiii Everybunny!!

Our change from rescue to sanctuary is less than 3 months away! Not only do we still have many bunnies waiting for their furever homes but we also still have a few that need to be neutered before they can take their next step!

We are looking to raise £500 towards 4 of these operations specifically as the bunnies in question have rehoming opportunities lined up 🀞🀞🀞

Blondie (pictured):
Blondie is in a foster placement but has the opportunity to be adopted and bonded to a lovely male bunny there once her spay can be funded. She came to us housed with her sister, Muffin, but their bond was only superficial and they were upsetting each other so they were separated for their own emotional and physical health. It must have been quite stressful enduring only a sibling bond for 4 years so we decided to allow them to move on from each other instead of attempting to create a firmer bond post spay.

Muffin:
Fluffy Muffin was coming off the worst for their superficial bond with her losing condition prior to arriving at the rescue and losing hair where Blondie would latch on during dominance tussles. Since separation, Muffin has massively come out of her shell and is ready to look at finding a proper bond with a new friend. She just needs that spay operation before she can begin the search. Watch out for Muffin becoming available for bonding opportunities in the future! She is adorable 😍

Axl and Rose:
Axl and Rose are now old enough for their ops and have been reserved for a home together once the winter weather has passed! So we need to get started on creating a good bond that will be with them for life. To do so, we need to get them in for their procedures ASAP so that their hormones can settle ahead of the bonding process! At Β£256 for the pair this is going to hit our funds harder but we would prefer to have them done simultaneously so that they can recover side by side.

If you can help these 4 bunnies one step closer to hoppy ever after please consider a contribution towards their combined vet fees of over Β£500 πŸ€žπŸ€—πŸ₯° via PayPal or bank transfer.

Beautiful Lolo and her instant recovery from her spay surgery a while ago 😍

She is now living at her furever home with her partner in crime, Hopsy and is a very happy little girl!

We have many more bunnies waiting for their furever homes and still have a few waiting for their neuter ops before they can even move onto that stage! Unfortunately, neuter funds are extremely low at the moment so we have only, with the help of a very generous donation, been able to fund one op this month. Handsome Sky was neutered on the 15th and has recovered perfectly!

If you are able to spare anything at all towards getting another bunny in for their op and one step closer to hoppy ever after, please consider a contribution via PayPal or bank transfer 🀞

Also, if you are interested in offering a home to any of the Binky Flops bunnies please get in touch via the Messenger or WhatsApp buttons for information on adopting/fostering with us.

Hi Binkies and Floppers πŸ‘‹

CrazyRabbitLady here just to apologise to anyone who has been in contact recently. I've had to take some impromtu time off from all but the essential bunny care this week.

I will do my best to get back to everyone by the end of the week. In an emergency, or if you're worried about your bfr bunny/s please put 'URGENT' as the first word of your message and I'll prioritise it.

Thank you πŸ€—

Hi Everybunny πŸ‘‹πŸ°

With our current financial situation being dire, recurrent dental procedures being due and CrazyRabbitLadys available contributions being very limited at the moment, we're going to struggle to provide even one neuter/spay operation this month. We still have bunnies waiting for their opportunities to move on to furever homes that just need these operations before they can take their next steps.

These include Sky, Blondie and Marilyn who all have bonding opportunities waiting. If you can help these beautiful bunnies get one step closer to their hoppy ever afters please consider a contribution towards their vet fees via PayPal or bank transfer πŸ₯° or get in touch for details on how to contribute directly to the vet account.

Thank you, our wonderful supporters. You are truly appreciated every day that we see these bunnies happy and cared for through your generous help ❀️❀️❀️

Hi Everybunny πŸ‘‹πŸ°

This next couple of months are looking to be our most expensive to date! We're attempting to prepare as many healthy bunnies as possible for rehome before we transition into a sanctuary to concentrate on the bunnies that are non-rehomeable and need us most. With our current outgoings being what they are this is proving more difficult than usual as the months go by! For example, we're currently spending approximately Β£80 per month just on bunny nuggets if we get only our most basic, cheapest option. That's almost the cost of a vaccination! Lately, we have been unable to source our cheapest nugget option (something which can happen for a good few weeks at a time) and our next cheapest almost doubles the cost! Extortion, we know! πŸ™ˆ
If we then try to meet the individual specific needs of bunnies with junior nuggets, mature nuggets, specific flavours for fussy eaters, etc, that Β£80 starts to look more like Β£200 + before we even consider the costs unlimited hay, regular fresh greens, treats and so forth.

So we're asking πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™ please help us bring our outgoings more under control by either contributing financially or purchasing items, especially nuggets, from our Amazon wishlist. Without the kindness of our supporters, 100% of costs fall to CrazyRabbitLady greatly reducing the access to funds for vaccinations, neutering, emergency care, etc.

If you can spare anything at all towards our outgoings by way of a financial contribution or an Amazon purchase please do consider it 🀞🀞🀞

Thank you so much πŸ’“

🐰UPDATES🐰

LOLO: Lolo received her spay on Friday and wow what a recovery!! She was up and about eating, drinking, toileting almost immediately! She also takes her painkillers willingly, lapping at the syringe and seeming disappointed once it's all gone πŸ™ˆ nothing phases this beautiful girl! We'll be monitoring her for the rest of this week to make sure her wound continues to heal perfectly then she's off to her furever home with her bestie, Hopsy πŸ₯°

RIVER: River saw the vet on Wednesday to assess the potential damage to her ears, etc and to have an ultrasound to determine if pregnancy could be the cause of some her reactive behaviour. The vet is happy that the anti-inflammatories administered by CrazyRabbitLady and the facial massages provided by CrazyRabbitLadyJunior have done the trick and there is no obvious sign of permanent physical trauma 🀞
Her ultrasound did not pick up signs of pregnancy but the vet is not willing to rule out it being too early in gestation to see anything so we will continue to monitor River for developing further pregnancy symptoms while continuing with her emotional rehab. Her rehab is going amazingly well! She still has a habitual reactive lunge behaviour but there has been no real desire to bite us beyond the first couple of days in rescue. She now zooms, binkys, purrs and constantly flops all over the place! She is very happy to be here and appears massively grateful for the feelings of love and safety ❀️

Both of these bunnies' journeys have so far been personally funded 100% by CrazyRabbitLady as contributions have been minimal recently. Unfortunately, CrazyRabbitLady is not in a position, this month, to personally fund any further cases so please consider helping out to get at least one more bunny in for spay/neuter and that one step closer to their hoppy ever after 🀞❀️
Neutering is currently costing Β£120 and spaying costs Β£136. Here is a link to our Β£13.60 spay appeal.

And your bunnies too!! Last weekend we were working in the yard with some bunnies hopping around getting their exercise when what can only be described as a mini tornado ripped along the whole row of houses busting open all the gates! Cheeky Blondie was of course quick to try and visit the neighbour's dog but was thankfully swiftly scooped up.

If you have outdoor bunnies or allow free roaming to include outdoors, don't forget to regularly make extra sure their space is secure during windy weather! πŸ’¨πŸ’¨πŸ’¨

Hi Everbunny!

Meet, River, our last official intake and rehab! River's lonnng story is included below.

We are no longer taking in any bunnies at all as the lack of adoptions/fosters means there is logistically nowhere to house them.
The astronomical costs of both routine and emergency vet fees on top of general running costs are far from sustainable. Lastly, CrazyRabbitLady cannot physically care for all these bunnies with her own ill health taking its toll.

With these issues in mind, in 2025 we will transition from rescue to sanctuary where we will concentrate all efforts into making the lives of the bunnies we've been unable to rehome the best lives they could want for the remainder of their years πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°
We're hoping to find homes, in the meantime, for at least half of our current bunnies so please do get in touch via the Messenger or WhatsApp buttons if you're able to offer a loving home for a pair of bunnies in need or a bonding opportunity for any single bunnies 🀞❀️

If you'd like to help us cover our costs or provide a gift for our bunnies, you can do so via the following methods or get in contact for other methods such as contributing directly to our vet account.

Thank you so much for all the support we've received over the years! Here's to making a wonderful future for all our remaining rehabs and ongoing care bunnies ❀️❀️❀️🀞🀞🀞

❀️🐰 RIVER 🐰❀️

Well... are you sitting comfortably? Then I shall begin!

Yesterday, I collected River following over a week of conversations with a lady providing temporary shelter for this gorgeous bunny. I'll try to leave out less relevant points to keep things quicker to relate and just get to the main issues.

I was put in contact with this lady regarding her need to find a home for a young male bunny named Patch. When she informed me that Patch was extremely aggressive with nobody being able to handle him even briefly, I knew I had to step in and try to help. I've never failed to rehab an aggressive bunny so it shouldn't be too hard I thought.... as the week progressed more and more worrying information was coming through to the point of being told that he had bitten a child and the father of the child had reacted by seizing Patch by the ears and throwing him! 😭

Descriptions of Patch's different behaviours suggested that there may be physical trauma from the incident and it was clear there were several emotional trauma issues too 😩πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜­ but that wasn't going to put me off. It just made me more determined to help.

On collecting Patch, it was indeed extremely difficult to examine him and there appeared to some inflammation at the base of the ears so I decided to just weigh him, give him anti-inflammatories and allow him to settle. Before this, it became evident that the issues were exclusively around being handled and Patch was actually the sweetest little bunny if you didn't try to pick up or restrain him.

Later in the day, I was just watching Patch from a distance with the niggling feeling that something wasn't adding up πŸ€”.
Being around as many bunnies for as long as I have causes you to notice subtle things that most wouldnt see. What I saw was a bunny who had distinctive physical properties, mannerisms, etc of a girl bunny πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ
I teamed up with CrazyRabbitLadyJunior to get her health check completed without losing a limb and discovered that he was indeed a little girl! This kind of refutes the claims I'd received that Patch started to become aggressive "when his balls dropped" unless they meant they'd dropped OFF πŸ˜…

During HER health check, her tummy felt rather firm and round so now there's a chance that the aggression may have started as a hormonal trait, been worsened due to fear from having been mishandled, and somewhere along the chain of people she passed through to get here she may even have come into contact with a buck. All are denying that she has been around another bunny but they're also still insisting she has testicles which she 100% does not have!

So River, as she is now named, is booked into the vet first thing tomorrow for a full mot and hopefully we can determine whether or not the high level of aggression is related to pregnancy. It's a bit of a toss up how to feel as pregnancy isn't ideal but the alternative may be permanent emotional and physical trauma from just 7 months of age 😭
Of course both could be the case which is just a completely horrendous start to her little life.

If you'd like to help River along her journey or to support any of our bunnies in need, please consider using any of the methods above. Good luck River! You're getting all the love and understanding you deserve from now on sweet little baby πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

Hi Everybunny πŸ€—

Little Sky has still not been claimed 😭
He's such a sweet cute boy and in such good condition that we can't believe he has just been abandoned!

He has made a 100% recovery from his ordeal and is so far showing no ill effects from the dust etc having been living under the floorboards of an abandoned house. We have until the end of this week left to find his owner before we can begin working with him and he can be moved out of his tiny quarantine area into a larger but cosier space πŸ₯°

The little guy absolutely loves food! This is him chomping away on a bowl of delicious nuggies nomnomnom!

Unfortunately, a lot of our bunnies love their food and keeping up with all their specific needs can be very expensive. Especially when even just the basic care is taking away from funds that are needed for vaccinations, neutering, emergency vet visits, etc.

Would our lovely supporters please consider helping us out with purchases from our Amazon gift list? At present, we particularly need nuggets of all stages, junior, adult and senior/mature. For example, we have quite a few bunnies that are getting on in years and have really taken a liking to the cranberry nuggets made by Burgess Excell. These are the bunnies hardest to find placements for so we always feel the need to extra spoil them πŸ₯°πŸ« 

Another way of helping out that is hugely appreciated is by fostering bunnies while they await their furever homes. This allows them to experience an environment more akin to a real home, giving them more space to play and more attention than we're able to offer here.

As always, we also value every single penny contributed towards our running costs and vet fees so please have a think if you can afford to help out this month in any amount possible πŸ€—
