White Rabbit Exotic Pet Care

Bringing this page out of the woodworks to keep my old clients posted as promised…

This week I graduated vet school! In July I will be moving to the Savannah area and starting as an Associate Veterinarian at Avian & Exotic Animal Hospital of Georgia. If anyone has friends with little critters in that area, please send them my way ♥️

Thank you to all my clients and customers over the years for all your support. I am so excited to continue caring for animals, just in a different way. Wish me luck as I embark of this next journey!

Hey guys! One of my old posts from Bailey’s 6th birthday seems to be making the rounds again. Bailey is actually turning 10 in a few months! I miss hanging out with all your pets but just wanted to say I’m doing well in vet school and am taking my licensing exam on Monday!
Here is Bailey’s new favorite sleeping position lately 😂

Check out our new website! It is now an info hub for links to exotic vets, rescues, care tips and recommended foods, toys, and pet sitters. I am also planning to eventually include a blog.

I am looking for a few more reputable pet sitters who care for exotics, as well as a few more shops with safe toys/other products. What are your favorites?
What types of blog posts would you like to see in the future?

Miss Bailey has arrived home ♥️ I’m so relieved that everything went well. She already seems more comfortable and has been eating ravenously since we got home! Thank you to everyone who was thinking about her.

UPDATE: She is out of surgery and recovering but will be staying overnight so she can remain on IV fluids. If she is doing well in the morning I can take her home tomorrow afternoon ♥️

Please wish Bailey luck today as she undergoes a cystotomy surgery to remove a bladder stone. She turns 9 in a few days so of course her mama is worrying about her ♥️

It is still a work in progress as we transition from a pet sitting business to a resource center & information hub for exotic pet owners. We are planning to include recommended veterinarians, rescues, links to websites with care sheets/husbandry info, etc. Anything else you'd like to see on the new site?

Farewell from WREPC - Not a goodbye but a see you later

Today, 12/30/22, was White Rabbit Exotic Pet Care's last day in business. I have posted a few times now about how hard this decision was to make, but that I am excited to continue on my veterinary journey. I wish following this vet dream didn't mean letting go of my WREPC dream, but once my externships and rotations start in a few days, I just won't have the time to continue on. I am sorry to leave you all as your pet sitter and groomer, but I hope you all agree with my feeling that I will be able to do even greater good for our furry, scaly, and feathered friends in my future career as an exotics vet!

Toys - The Etsy shop has been closed for several days now, but I sent my remaining inventory to a rabbit rescue. They will be reselling the rest of the toys I made in order to raise money for the rabbits in their care. I am so happy that my last 120 toys were able to find a good home and go to such a great cause. I will be sure to send out the link to their shop once the toys are received and posted!

Pet Sitting/Grooming - If you are not able to find a replacement sitter/groomer on your own, please email me, and I will do my best to help you find one.

Website - Over the next few months, whiterabbitpets.com will slowly be converted (in the minuscule amounts of free time I will have) into a more resource-based website. I thought it was still important to provide links to those who may be searching for veterinarians, rescues, and animal care information. I am also happy to volunteer my time to answer any non-urgent/non-veterinary questions about animal care & husbandry or help owners find care for their pets using the contact form in any free time I may have.

Thank you!
I will miss all of you and your pets so much, but I hope to see at least some of you with your pets as veterinary patients in the future. You should be able to find me by searching "Alyssa Silverman, VMD" starting in the summer of 2024. In this way, it's not really a goodbye, but more of a see-you-later.

I cannot thank you all enough for the past 6 years. I have loved each of the 81 pets I cared for as my own, and enjoyed making friends with many of their owners. I am so grateful for the 15.9K Etsy shop visits, the straight 5 star reviews, and the nearly 2,000 toys sold between the shop and vendor events. I will miss the days of waking up at 5am to cuddle bunnies and feed breakfasts before my day job, and the nights of coming home at midnight after a last puppy potty break. I will miss taking a million photos of each pet and making all of the memories that came along with them. Thank you all for trusting me to take care of your precious babies.

Farewell from Your Exotic Critter Pet Sitter, but see you soon from your future exotic pet vet...

♥️🐇Alyssa

I sure have been busy the past few days! Christmas pet sitting, last grooming appointments before our final day open on Friday, and my last 120 toys being shipped to a rabbit rescue to be resold & help bunnies in need. (I’ll let you know where to look for them once they are received!)
Right now I am just so thankful for all the customers and clients who have continued to support me in these final days and weeks, and for those I hope to see “on the other side” as a VMD!
If anyone needs a last minute booking or needs copies of any paid invoices for your records, please let me know ♥️🐇

Milo got a pawdicure and a good brushing today! Isn’t he just the most handsome little guy?!
The Etsy shop officially closed yesterday, but I am still taking existing clients for pet sitting and grooming appointments through 12/30. Let’s squeeze in that last nail trim before I head off to clinics!
