Unfortunately 2 of our six pack passed, and we are down to 4. It is a sad reality of Baby bunnies. But the 4 we have are so full of energy and have grown so fast! They will be available to foster in about 4 weeks. It is so much fun to watch them grow. This week they started munching on hay, and are on their way to transitioning to big babies. Next week they will get to try pellets.

Look how big our baby that came in with the eye infections has gotten! So adorable. He will be available to go to a foster home in two weeks. He is super sweet and social.

It's a big day for the 6 pack! Their eyes are opening. All of the babies, except for the 2 REWs (red eye whites), have their eyes open. The last two will most likely be open by tonight or tomorrow morning. This is a big milestone for baby buns. It indicates that they are old enough to go potty on their own, without needing to be stimulated. They are also ready to start nibbling on alfalfa to get their tummies ready to be big buns. Look at those cute, sleepy eyes! This was right after they ate, and were ready for a nap.

Rescue babies! We have been caring for some special babies over the last few weeks. We introduced our cutie that was found in a parking lot. There is an updated picture below. Not long after that bunny arrived, we had someone reach out that had orphaned babies that needed care. These brand new babies were hungry and quickly learned to drink from the miracle ni**le (special feeding ni**les for buns). Then they started growing. And growing. And growing! They are now 1.5 weeks old and wiggly as can be. Their eyes will open in the next couple days. Eating and growing are their favorite things to do.

Exactly one week after the orphaned babies arrived, a family called who were surprised with babies overnight. They thought their bunny was too young to have babies, but the family woke up to 4 tiny buns. One of them was extra small. Bun mom wasn't interested in the babies and chewed on the little ones ear and tail. On top of that, mom didn't produce milk.

These buns arrived dehydrated. They didn't take to eating right away, but after a couple feedings they figured it out and loved their formula! They have grown so fast. They are only 4 days old, but they have already grown so much! They even have fur.

Hand raising baby buns is difficult. They aspirate very easily and have very sensitive tummies. Luckily we have volunteers that have a lot of experience hand feeding babies, and have a good success rate. We are excited to watch these babies grow, and are cheering them on!

Shout out to another Family that have officially adopted a bunny from us. Meet Cocoa Vader (love this name) she was at our Petco Adoption/Foster day last month.
She started as a Foster and has now been officially adopted after being spayed by our fabulous vet Merik Metos Sun Animal Hospital in Nampa

When we talk to people about bunnies running free in the community, we hear a lot of people say "I love watching the bunnies run through my yard/neighborhood! They are so cute! Unfortunately, this is the reality of bunnies that run free in the community. They have babies every 30 days. Most babies don't live to be adults. If the buns do live to be adults, they have a good chance of being picked up by a bird, or attacked by a dog.

This is a lucky baby. It was found in the parking lot of an apartment complex. The eyes were completely swollen shut. After a week of antibiotic eye ointment, this poor baby's eyes are better, but it is blind in one eye. Unfortunately, this is the reality of dumped bunnies. Bunnies that are dumped are not "fine." They are in danger. Please help educate others about the seriousness of dumping bunnies.

Another fabulous story. Vienna Lynn Strauss Fostered a bunny from us named Smokey Back in February to be a mate with her bunny Cuddles. Cuddles unfortunately passed away. Vienna decided she wanted to get another pal for Smokey. We went out on a speed date and Smokey could decide so we left two. Well look at them now!
They get the whole back yard and inside too. Plus look at the fresh greens. What do you say Save A Bun Rabbit Rescue followers, should Vienna turn these foster buns into a triple adoption?

Here is an update to the sweet Tiny bunny being fostered by Sara Nordio and her daughter Sofia. If you remember this bunny was brought to our vet Merik Metos with @ Rising Sun Animal Hospital in Nampa.
A lady found it outside. Merik called us and I rushed over to help.
Well, Darci my Volunteer hand fed it for awhile and then Sara wanted to foster. We posted a few photos before but this is what's been happening since.
