Hi everyone!
We have lots of bunnies right now and could use some more food and hay! The gift card I added to the list would be used to buy fruits and veggies for the bunnies!
If you order please leave a note so we can properly thank you!🩷
After Easter we always get a ton of calls to surrender bunnies! As sad as it is I’m glad we are here to help instead of more bunnies getting dumped. We appreciate all of your support you all have always shown!🙂

We took these two boys in today after they were left behind by a roommate.
They are super sweet but are in need of a foot bath. Give us some name ideas! I think with a new beginning they need new names🩵

We took these two bottle babies in today, they are two weeks old and found abandoned outside.
They are doing great and have a home lined up already when they are old enough to leave!🩵
(Please keep in mind we normally DO NOT do cats, my family reached out when they found them and want to keep them when they are old enough)

Aioki is living her best life 🩷

05/22/2024

We welcomed Leo back last week, he was adopted out almost 4 years ago, unfortunately his family needed a service dog for medical reasons and the pup wasn’t a fan of Leo. Leo will be looking for a new home in a couple weeks, he is litter box trained, super sweet, was raised with kids and used to have run of his last owners whole house. Leo would love to find a home where he can hopefully free roam as much as possible. He is not a chewer and he is good with my dogs and other animals 🙂🩵 he is estimated around 5-6 years old

Well this sweet girl has a long road to recovery. I bought her this past weekend at an expo I attended from a well known rescue and animal advocate here in Michigan, yes I know I shouldn’t have gave him money but I couldn’t not save her.
She had been kept with a bunch of other chinchilla including males and other females.
She was handled very roughly and “guaranteed” to be pregnant amongst other things that just weren’t anywhere near true. if she was with males there’s a good chance she is but most times you cannot physically feel a chinchilla and say they are pregnant there are signs to look for but not the way he did. Anyway she has horrible fur it is chewed to her skin, missing and chewed whiskers and an old injury to the tip of her tail and is on the skinny side. She calmed down immediately after I got her and held her close to me❤️ we need some name suggestions for this sweet girl
I will continue to update on her progress🩵
