Binky Flops Rescue, Wigan (2026)

30/12/2025

It's been a very long day but she's here now and she's safe. She's absolutely terrified bless her so we'll leave her to settle in and give her more of a check over, claw clip (much needed) etc tomorrow. It's clear even on this dark photo what the main physical concern with her is though.... she's a rex... I don't think I've ever seen a more obese bunny before. We'll weigh her tomorrow but I wouldn't be surprised if she's more than 3 times as heavy as she should be. Unfortunately, she can't be spayed in such an unhealthy condition so she's going straight on a diet 🙈

I've been calling her Winnie as it's similar to her original name and she somehow reminds me of Winnie the Pooh. I'm open to suggestions though. Starlight fits her too x

Thanks for your support

Hi all!! We hope you've had a wonderful Christmas and wish you all the best going into the new year 🤗❤️

We've had a busy couple of weeks here and it's liable to get busier!

Here's some of the things we currently have going on.

EL TORO:
Please say "hello" to the 100% adorable Toro. So named because he's a little bull in a china shop 😅. Of all the bunnies to come through BFr, we can't think of any that are as friendly and puppy-like as Toro! Unfortunately, at 3-4 years old, previously kept closed in a 3' cage and never having been neutered, he has massive amounts of built up frustrations (hormones and lonliness) that affect his behaviour. As usual, people would rather pass on their problem than deal with it so he has been passed around until another independent rescue agreed to offer him a place. Unfortunately, that rescuer is currently experiencing a serious biosecurity issue and so Toro, despite us not officially taking in bunnies any more, was diverted and ended up here. We're happy he did because he's just delicious 😍 always wanting cuddles and kisses to the point of CrazyRabbitLady not being able to go anywhere without him wanting to tag along zipped inside her coat eating dandelion leaves and plantains 😅
Toro very much needs to be neutered ASAP so that he can find a bunny friend to lavish all his love and affection onto. Humans simply can't give a bunny the constant companionship they crave so please please consider contributing towards the £120 required to get Toro on his way to the hoppiness he truly deserves ❤️

TORO IS GOING TO FEATURE IN OUR FIRST EVER BFR LIVE STREAM COMING SOON SO KEEP YOUR EYES PEELED FOR THAT!

DUKE & DAISY:
We can't believe it! Duke has finally found a new home! Duke and Daisy are due their vaccinations. Duke is booked in tomorrow so that he can be moved to his wonderful new home ASAP and Daisy is scheduled for mid-Jan. Luckily, Duke being reserved means that his vax cost is covered by his rehoming fee but if anyone would like to help to raise the £90 required for Daisy please consider a contribution via the methods below.
Duke moving on also means that beautiful Daisy will not be held back to complete a bond with him and can now be rehomed for bonding purposes elsewhere 🥰
If you are interested in offering Daisy a bonding opportunity with your existing bun/nies please get in touch for more information on her! She is very sweet towards people and towards other bunnies so we anticipate no issues at all with her future bonding experience. She would even be a good bunny to try if you have a single bunny that has proven difficult to bond in the past. Please don't give up on finding them a friend, try a tolerant bunny like Daisy who will be patient with your difficult bunny 🤞

SMORE:
Smore is booked in for his incisor removal mid-february. He has been placed on the cancellation list incase an earlier slot comes available but for now we're looking at at least 2 more burr sessions before he goes in. Smore's isn't considered an emergency removal as he tolerates his burrs extremely well. The burrs have just become too frequently required of late and the overgrowth too much of a hinderance to continue putting off the removal.
The good news is that he is confident and a very healthy boy (especially when compared to his condition on arrival at BFr) so we are confident that his operation will go according to plan 🤞❤️

DUCKY & CLOVER:
Look at how well Ducky has recovered from his recent ordeal with vestibular disease (suspected to have been a result of Encephalitozoon cuniculi). He is doing so well now that there's barely a hint of head tilt and you'd never know he'd been unwell at all! His cheekiness is back in full force! 😂
His girlfriend, Clover, is also starting to lose weight which is very much needed for her and she is finding it much easier to keep herself clean without intervention which has previously been a struggle for her.
Due to changes in circumstances, their owners are concerned that they can no longer provide the care that these buns need so have asked that we take them on full time going forward. We, of course, agreed as we would accept back any bunny that we had previously adopted out however long ago that was (along with their bonded partners) but it helps massively that the owners will be continuing to provide support by keeping up with their pet club and insurance payments for as long as needed 🥰
And who wouldn't want to keep this adorable cheeky pair regardless? 😍

YET TO BE RENAMED GIRL BUNNY:
We previously mentioned in a post that a fellow independent rescuer had been receiving messages demanding that she collect an "aggressive" bunny that the owners were threatening to throw out to fend for herself and they even made suggestions that she was at risk of physical harm. This rescuer is the one experiencing the biosecurity issue so can't possibly even transport never mind take in any bunny at the moment. Now, however, the suggestions of physical harm have become direct threats with more than one family member stating that they are going to "wring her neck" so we can no longer put off taking this bunny into safety and beginning her aggressive behaviour rehabilitation.
We will need to spay her as matter of urgency to begin the work which will cost us £136 but with the situation escalating, CrazyRabbitLady, is herself paying an extra £34 out of pocket for train fare in order to step in the moment she gets the go ahead to remove this bunny.
We will update on this case as soon as the bunny is secured 🤞

If anyone is interested in helping us to cover any amount of the current added costs listed please consider a contribution via PayPal or bank transfer at the details provided. Alternatively, get in touch for details on how to contribute any amount directly into our vet account 🥰 thank you so much for any support you can offer at this busy and expensive time x

Hi Everybunny,

When Ducky came to us recently in the middle of the night his owner had discovered him on his side unable to get up and rushed him over in a panic. We immediately recognised the symptoms of vestibular disease. There can be a number of causes of this but our main thought was E.cuniculi, a parasite that can cause vestibular disease if it invades the central nervous system. We started treatment for this straight away.

Unfortunately, EC can take a month or even more of continuous care to combat which isn't something that most people find possible to handle in their day to day lives so the difficult choice was made to leave Ducky and his bun wife, Clover, with CrazyRabbitLady to work with round the clock.

Ducky didn't even know which way was up (in the first pic his nose is at the bottom and his mouth at the top) for a long time and was still barrel rolling 10 days into treatment. He started to become quite depressed and it was very hard to get food and especially water into him with him being so disorientated so we went back to the vet to ask for intravenous fluids which did a great job at perking him up! We also started him on antibiotics as CrazyRabbitLady felt that something else was going on with him either instead of EC or alongside it (quite possibly something which compromised his immune system enough to allow the EC to invade his CNS.)

He immediately was brighter following the extra fluids and started to improve greatly over the next few days! The next pic was when he was finally remaining upright with only minimal support from buffers on his left side. The head tilt was still an issue and he was overbalancing a lot but making every attempt to get back into some mischief which we love to see 😍

Pic #3, 4 weeks in and multiple courses of medications finally done with!! Just look at that cute fluffy face! 😭

It's hard work, takes a lot of time and is very emotionally draining but please never let anyone tell you there is no coming back from EC/vestibular disease. Try try try and if you can't possibly afford the time or resources to do so, ask somebody experienced to take over on your behalf! Even when head tilts are severe and permanent bunnies can still live a long and happy life post EC.

Cases like this are one of the reasons we are no longer able to accept non-urgent intakes. We have to leave our very limited remaining space and resources for those bunnies that need intensive care or emergency rescue. To give the Duckies out there a chance at the future they deserve 🥰

Unfortunately, our resources are more limited than ever so we are really feeling the pinch. Luckily, Ducky was treated through his owners' insurance massively reducing his costs to us. However, we have another case waiting to come in via somebody who received messages stating that their bunny is a biter and the owner is not only considering releasing her but is suggesting that the bunny is at risk from them of physical harm. Reminding us so much of River's case we have to try and help her before something happens that we can't have on our conscience. First port of call will be to spay her and allow her hormones to settle before getting to work on whatever emotional/communication issues might be also affecting her temperament. It is also believed that she may have a chronic eye issue that has gone untreated so that too will need to be addressed immediately. If you are able to help us to gather funds for the care of this bunny (she will feature in a future post once we have secured her from the owner) and other misunderstood bunnies just like her or sick bunnies like precious Ducky please consider a contribution to our vet bills and running costs via the methods below 🤞🤞🤞

Sorry for such a long post and thank you so much to those who managed to read the whole thing 😅 you make the world a better place just by existing 🤗 x

Hi Everybunny! We have now raised a total of £170 towards Smore's incisor extraction! Thank you so much! Still another minimum £205 to go so please please help if you can ❤️❤️❤️ details in the original post x

05/11/2025

We've had a little boy, Ducky, come back to us (we adopted him out over 18 months ago) for treatment and rehabilitation following a severe attack of E.cuniculi on his CNS and possibly his kidneys too.

When he's not being handled for meds, syringe feeding, etc or having supervised exercise time/physio he's in this box. This provides him with a wall to lean on with his left side preventing him from flipping over. We've been popping nuggets and hay in front of him to allow him to eat by himself when he's feeling up to it....

His partner bunny, Clover, has decided he doesn't need the nuggets if he's not going to eat them and hopped in there to help.... look what she does at the end the cheeky little madam! 😅😂🤦‍♀️

05/11/2025

Thank you so much to the two lovely ladies that have already contributed a total of £70 towards Smore's care 🥰🥰🥰 This should completely cover his consultation and burr appointment this afternoon so that's wonderful! If anyone would like to help him further we hope to have raised the money for his incisor removal as soon as possible 🤞Bank details and PayPal are in the original post. Please get in touch also if you'd like details on how to contribute any amount directly into our vet account 🥰 We appreciate every single one of you very much ❤️

How cute and sweet is our Smore? Look at himmmm 😭😭😭

Unfortunately for Smore, his dodgy teeth have grown back super fast twice running now. He usually goes a couple of months before needing his repeat burr but the last two times have seen them grow back out in only a couple of weeks with one lower incisor being particularly problematic 😔

It's looking like we'll have to finally opt for incisor removal which we really can't afford at all these days. He'll be going for another burr this week and getting a consultation with the vet ahead of the op. Incisor removal costs us just shy of £400 but if it's best for a bunny going forward we have to do it!

Please please please consider helping us raise some of the funds for this operation 🤞🤞🤞

You can contribute to Smore's procedure via WhatsApp or bank transfer at the details below. Alternatively, get in touch for instructions on how to make a contribution directly into our vet account.

Smore is a very sweet, happy little guy who loves snuggles and smooches especially from CrazyRabbitLady. Please help us to give him the best future he can possibly have 🤞❤️

Hi Everybunny!

Our gorgeous Smore has an appointment tomorrow for a repeat burr as one of his lower incisors has not stopped growing since his last burr a month ago. Hopefully this time will see him go back to only needing his burr every few months 🤞
If he has problems more often from now we may have to opt for removal 😭

We've had very little in the way of financial help recently. Coupled with the reduced income we're suffering we can barely even afford the £40 needed for Smore's visit tomorrow. All neuter ops have had to be indefinitely postponed incase any emergencies arise.

Please consider contributing any amount towards Smore's procedure and/or to our general running costs 🤞🤞🤞❤️

Hi Everybunny!

Who remembers beautiful River? River came to us at only 7 months old as an "aggressive boy" that couldn't be touched and had bitten a child causing the father to grab her by the ears and throw her.

River is now the most beautiful GIRL bunny with such an affectionate sweet nature 😍
We're so proud of how well she has done in shaking off her trauma through months of patient rehabilitation and trust exercises. Usually, our first step in aggression led rehab would be to neuter/spay but River's issues stemmed from her deep mistrust of humans through mishandling. We chose, therefore, to work on building trust first, leaving her spay for a time when it would cause less stress for her and all involved. Now is that time! She's gone from the bunny with the thousand yard stare (pic 1) to a smiley, affection seeking bar rattler (pic 2) who is clearly very ready to get out of rehabilitation set ups and start her free roaming hoppy ever after as a sanctuary bunny 🥰

Free roaming is only possible for our neutered bunnies and with 5 girls and 1 boy still waiting for their neuter funds to accrue before they can join the sanctuary fluffles it feels like the end of rehab is very far away.

River and Mango were expected to have been done by now but Dora's urgent procedures had to take precedence and use up their allotted funds. Please consider helping us to raise the £270 required to get them both back in place and on their way to sanctuary fluffle bliss 🤞

You can contribute via PayPal or bank transfer. Every single pound received goes towards our bunnies' future happiness and is massively appreciated ❤️

Please consider helping us. CrazyRabbitLadys income is cut by a third this month and there is nobody else that 100% funds our non-emergency operations. Without help from our supporters, there will be no neuter funds available for at least this month. This delays hoppy ever after for our remaining girls waiting for their spays 😔

Hey there, Binky Floppers!

Here's your update on last month's procedures.

Thorn:
Thorn was successfully spayed and has recovered wonderfully. She had put on a bit too much weight recently so has been on a diet that is going very well. Thorn's body was in starvation mode when we first took her in so it now frantically stores fats and sugars in anticipation of experiencing that again. Portion control is key to controlling that situation and she is good at eating her hay so can happily go without the extra calories 🥰
The best news is that she has been reserved for bonding to a lovely boy bunny so will soon be going to her furever home with a family that we know will take great care of her ❤️

Smore:
Smore had his routine incisor burr. The nurses always comment on how well he takes the process and what a good boy he is. This little cutie really does make us proud of what we do with how far he's come from the sorry state he was in on his arrival here.
Contributions received in August just about covered Smore's procedure so thank you so much to those who made that possible 😍
Look at his post-burr face! He's so funny 😁

Dill:
We decided to postpone Dill's burr! His little snaggle tooth hadn't grown as much as we'd anticipated and he is due to go into a long-term foster situation very soon so we will reschedule for just before he leaves. He is excited to embark on a new adventure and already loves his human friend that will be looking after him! We're going to miss him but we will still be responsible for his ongoing vet treatments, etc so will still get to see him regularly when we check up on him and/or take him for his burrs ❤️

Thorn's spay cost was 100% covered by CrazyRabbitLady but this month is going to be an extra struggle to cover operations with more outgoings for CrazyRabbitLady than normal.

If you can help at all towards Dill's upcoming burr, general running costs or maybe contribute towards our next spay op (River and/or Mango), please consider doing so via PayPal or bank transfer. Let's do what we can to take some of the ongoing pressure off the Binky Flops team.

Thank you, everybunny, for all the support you show us and our fluffy friends 🥰

Good morning! Whewwww it's already a scorcher here 🥵 and it's only 9am! CrazyRabbitLady has already been making and giving out cold beds for those buns in warmer rooms and for those who simply refuse to shelter indoors. 👀 we're looking at you, Marie!

Bunnies don't cope well at all in hot weather and can quickly succumb to heatstroke so it's essential we provide cool places to relax. Ways in which we manage this include:

Ceramic tiles in the shade (many tile shops will let you take discarded tiles for free).

Frozen water bottles wrapped in a blanket or towel.

Electric fans where we're able to guard the cable from nibblers 😬😅

Homemade cool beds (we tried buying cool mats but the destructobuns put holes in them all so they had to be binned 🙄)

Here is what you will need to make your own cheap cool bed as shown in the pics and modelled by the gorgeous Ice-bear 😍

Freezer blocks. A pillow case. A fleece blanket or towel. Cardboard to stiffen the base for ease of carrying (optional).

You can even roll up the edges of the blanket/towel as shown to create the "flop bed" effect which buns usually love ❤️

Simply layer the items - cardboard then blocks then blanket - inside the pillow case and pop it down in a shaded area. Place a treat or 2 onto the bed if you want to spark bun's interest.

Please do all you can to keep your pets and family safe in this heat 🤞❤️🤞
