Hi Everybunny π€
Little Sky has still not been claimed π
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 π₯°
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 π₯°π«
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 π€

Look at himmmm π those who know bunny food know science selective adult nuggets are huuuge! Smore has gone from struggling to bite the smallest pieces possible so being syringe fed to handling massive nuggets with ease in just a couple of days! Unfortunately, having a slight underbite means that his incisors are unlikely to ever meet well enough to prevent overgrowth no matter how well we get him eating π
However, now that he is eating with enthusiasm, we are going to be able to get him strong enough to undergo surgery to remove the offending teeth and hopefully that will be the end of his physical issues π€π₯°
We will also be having investigative x-rays, though, to make fully sure his molars are healthy enough for him to recover 100% π€
This unexpected intake has scuppered our 2024 targets in terms of throwing off our schedule for less priority surgeries due to lack of funds. If there is any amount at all that you can contribute to help us get somewhat back on schedule it would be massively appreciated! β€οΈ
Please consider helping us via PayPal or bank transfer or get in touch for details on how to contribute directly to the vet account. Thank you β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ

Hiiii ππ°
Who remembers fluffy little Dill?
He came to us as a sign over and in need of an incisor trim about 2 months ago. He was a really good boy during his tooth burring, taking it in his stride as he does all things. Since then, he's done very well at munching his hay and keeping it from becoming a recurring problem. The problem tooth is starting to grow oddly again, though, due to a very slight malocclusion so we will be looking to book him back in for another quick trim. The issue is not severe enough to warrant removal thank goodness π€
We have decided to have this done in under 2 weeks time at the same time as his neuter which will be done alongside Mabel being spayed π€
Once both bunnies are recovered we'll begin the bonding process between them π and look at finding them a wonderful furever home together!
Between them, for burrings, neuter, spay and their vaccinations, these 2 bunnies alone, so far, have a vet bill of approximately Β£500! This is the average amount spent on every pair of bunnies we prepare for adoption, not including the every day costs of feeding, housing, etc.
If you can help to take any amount of the financial strain from CrazyRabbitLady please consider contributing to Dill and Mabels vet bills via PayPal or bank transfer.
Thank you so so much for every bit of support you've shown us over the years β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ

Hi Everybunny!!
After our recent push to get more surgeries completed ASAP, here are some of our bunnies that have had their neuter/spay surgery at Wigan Vets for Pets just in the last month or so π₯°
We just want to say a big THANK YOU to the team at Woodhouse Lane. Every bunny has recovered fantastically, every wound has healed beautifully and the care shown has been second to none. We often exchange pictures of post-spay wounds with other rescuers and owners and it's a point of pride that ours are always so beautifully neat, clean and fast to heal π₯°
We have been booking operation appointments at this particular surgery for approximately 5 years now and have never lost a single bunny during surgery or even from post-surgery complications. We believe this is due to the wonderful services received much more than sheer luck β€οΈ
Thank you all for everything you do for our bunnies, especially recently, and for helping these beautiful bundles of fluff to take their next step towards hoppy ever after β€οΈ
Thank you so much
Love from the Binky Flops team ###
If anyone is interested in being the next step in the journey for any of the Binky Flops bunnies, please get in touch via the Messenger or WhatsApp buttons for information on adopting or fostering with us! π°ππ°
URGENT REQUEST
We are in desperate need of enclosures of any kind and of fosterers or adopters.
As usual, we are over capacity for bunnies and really need to find homes for those ready to move on and foster placements for those who are just awaiting neuter.
In the meantime, we could cope if we had more enclosures of any kind or size. If you have a spare cage, hutch, run, crate, etc please consider donating it to us. We are in Wigan and can collect locally but further afield would require transport help. Please get in touch with details of any enclosure you'd like to gift to us π₯°
We are also accepting donations of supplies such as food, hay, straw, treats and toys as our running costs have recently doubled!
We have 4 urgent cases arriving tomorrow hence the urgent request. If you can help to free up some space for them by adopting or fostering our existing bunnies please get in contact via the WhatsApp or Messenger buttons π€π
In the past month or so we have neutered/spayed 8 bunnies, had boosters done and urgent health checks that, with every day costs added, have totalled over Β£2000. If you can help to recoup some of these costs or help towards our over budget running costs please consider a contribution via bank transfer or PayPal.

Updates on how everybunny is doing will be posted over the next few days so keep your eyes peeled π

This year has seen an unprecedented amount of loss for Binky Flops. We're heartbroken to announce that our latest loss is beautiful, sweet souled Amber πππ
We have spent so much love and hundreds of pounds on her in the short time she's been with us just trying to get her to a suitable condition for dental surgery. Unfortunately, her most recent course of antibiotics did not sit well with her and adding that to the high level of stress she experienced when being medicated seemed to steal her enthusiasm for life.
This weekend, she decided enough was enough, this world wasn't for her ππππ r.i.p. precious girl β€οΈ you will be missed and never forgotten πΉ
A couple of weeks ago we took in another dental disease bunny, Tink (aka Twix) who we decided to relocate to another rescue in order to preserve already low funds for Amber's ongoing treatment. He was only with us for 5 days but Tink made an enormous impact on us. He was a very comical, affectionate, adorable boy (if a little hormonal π
) and it was an absolute wrench to see him leave. He received an incisor removal operation with his new rescue family but he sadly passed 20 minutes into post-op recovery π
By complete chance, CrazyRabbitLady happened to meet another bunny, Dilan, on Friday night and he is of a similar breed to Amber and Tink. It was a sad duty to inform the owners that Dilan also requires urgent attention to his incisors. We have since been asked to take in Dilan and provide the necessary care and we feel as if Amber and Tink are with us saying "please give Dilan the chance you so wanted to give to us"
So, though we weren't planning to take in any more rabbits with complications this year, we have decided to take him in and offer him every ounce of love, effort, care and funding that we had planned for Amber in her name and in Tinks name β€οΈπ€β€οΈ hopefully we have caught it early enough that the issue can be rectified without removal but that is somet
Hi bunny lovers!
We recently received footage of a 10 year old male bunny that is in the adoption area of St Helens Pets at Home.
Having spoken, today, to staff at the store, we've learned that this bunny (Oreo) has been with them for over a month and is starting to stress groom. Unfortunately, our current costs are too high to warrant paying Β£50 to rescue this poor boy and the store are not going to reduce it. We are also at capacity and looking to close the rescue once all currently rehomable bunnies are adopted.
Please consider rescuing this elderly boy from spending the rest of his life in a pet shop being overlooked π
PaH will provide vax and neuter vouchers if he needs them so your initial costs are greatly reduced. CrazyRabbitLady will also always be on hand for help and advice with his ongoing care. Please, however, only consider taking him on if a commitment to bunny ownership is something you're prepared for.
If you aren't in a position to home Oreo but still want to help bunnies in need, donations towards our outstanding and upcoming vet bills are extremely appreciated β€οΈ
You can do this via bank transfer into the below account or contact us via Messenger for details on contributing directly to our main vet.
We also have bunnies available for foster/foster-to-adopt/adoption here at the rescue so please do get in contact if you'd like more information on them π₯°

TRIGGER WARNING: BUNNY IN RESPIRATORY DISTRESS!
We're so sad to say that Faith has taken a turn for the worse in the night and is struggling to get enough oxygen so we have rushed her into hospital where she is currently being treated for symptoms of pneumonia and taking further steps as and when necessary. The current estimate if she is able to come home today is Β£550 but that is best case scenario as she is likely to need referring on to a specialist exotics vet, Rutland House for further care.
While we don't like to ask for help with bunnies that we're likely unable to ever offer for adoption, it's absolutely necessary that we ask our generous supporters to help Faith today. Especially with Amber's treatment to be covered this week also.
If you can spare anything at all towards helping our most in need bunnies please donate into the following account ###

We will do everything in our power to save this beautiful sweet girl π€β€οΈ
Faith loves being out and about and getting lots of fuss! Today she visited her friends at Fur Clemt for a bite of banana that turned into a bit more than a bite π
On her way home she went for a play in the grass and demonstrated how much more mobile and strong she is becoming now that she has round the clock care π€
We'll drop some pics in the comments of her grass munching happiness x
Update on Grace/Hope! We've actually decided her name is Faith and that's what we have now π€β€οΈ
It was touch and go for a while in quarantine for Faith as she wasn't responding to attempts at improving her body condition. This weekend we were able, with added biosecurity incase live mites are still present, to move her into "kangaroo care". This is a type of intensive care where she will spend every possible moment with CrazyRabbitLady being hand fed, receiving oodles of affection and being monitored for any change in behaviour, signs of pain etc. She even sleeps in a pet bed right next to CrazyRabbitLady overnight. Her antibiotics have been discontinued and she will be moving onto specialist pre/probiotic food to combat any negative effects they may have had on her gut.
We're happy to report that just 2 days in there was already significant improvement in her physical health and her adorable personality is coming out so much π₯°
Here she is pulling CrazyRabbitLady closer because she just wants to feel loved constantly β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
Her vet is now happy that, with this brand of care, Faith can bounce back in no time and he's excited to witness her progress when she returns to see him in a month.
Of course, if there are any signs of a decline during rehab, we will return immediately for updated advice and tests.
Little Timothy is taking a hard earned break from pooping where he was specifically asked not to π
He needs a little more time for his hormones to settle post-neuter so that he'll stop upsetting Jasmine by getting too excited. Once that happens, he and Jasmine will be able to properly bond and become available for adoption as a pair.
If you're interested in adopting Timothy and Jasmine please get in touch via the Messenger or WhatsApp buttons to arrange a home check.
There are extra conditions that need to be considered in order to adopt these two but they are conditions that are very easily met so please don't let that put you off. They are lovely bunnies with strong adorable personalities!
