This video LITERALLY took me all day to make (just sayin’ 😄) and I’m so disappointed that not all of the text to talk audio worked. It was so much cuter when you could hear all the different voices! Hopefully you still find it entertaining and will watch to the end. @agregoo has been a very good supporter of ours since the beginning! Sponsoring OVER a dozen bunnies, including all 6 babies from the Kalamazoo Hutch Dump Bunnies (Honey and Puff, featured, Floof, featured, Piper, Huey, and Jimmy) as well as all 6 Lapeer hoarding case bunnies (Cosmo and Lilly, Bubbles, Chillie, Mabel, and Rocky) and several others I am not recalling at the moment. He has sponsored many of our events and made many monthly contributions as well as random donations! If not for people like Greg and for all of our supporters, we would not be able to do what we do. Thank you all for your ongoing support and if you are able to make a donation, the next two weeks will be the best time to make it! Giving Tuesday is 2 weeks from today and however much we raise FROM THOS CAMPAIGN) will be matched 100% up to $1000 which would give us $2000 of desperately needed funds for rent and vet bills! You can donate on our IG or FB pages, or electronically via the following:
Venmo or PayPal $RomeoRabbitRescue
Cash App $RomeoRabbitRescue
Zelle (586) 233-3129
Or you can message us with alternate ways to donate! Be sure to NOTATE “Giving Tuesday” with your donation so it will be counted. Let’s see if we can raise the full $1000 so Gregg can turn it into $2000!

Leonard & Skinner’s first morning at Romeo Rabbit Rescue
Look who were happy to see me this morning! Skinner, was actually getting excited! Skinner is the bigger brother who had the massive poop rocks attached to his butt. I spent nearly 2 hours working on him yesterday and was expecting him to be a bit scared of me this morning but nope! These boys are truly so loving, it’s amazing considering everything they’ve been through! I cannot believe (even though I’ve seen it countless times before) that humans could’ve neglected and abandoned them as horribly as they did. We have some pretty tiny poops so we will be working on motility with them. Little Leo (Leonard) is the smaller brother, also very sweet, is a bit more reserved than his brother, but not by much. Both boys were eager to put their heads down for pets this morning. They will be a wonderful pair of bunnies for a worthy family in the near future! Huge thanks to everyone who is sending in donations and thanks to Rosie’s Kitty Catfé for all your support! We really appreciate you! #romeorabbitrescue #bunnyrescue #rabbitrescue #rescuemission #hollandlopbunny #hollandloprabbit #hollandlopbunnies #cutebunnies #friendlybunnies #bunnylove #bunnylovers #adoptdontshop #bunnyloversunite
Donations for Leonard & Skinner
We caved today and took in a couple of emergency rescues. We were contacted by a volunteer for Rosie’s Kitty Catfé as well as animal control regarding two Holland Lop bunnies who were dumped in Lenox just yesterday. They were rescued today and one of the poor boys had so much hardened feces adhered to his butt it was as if he was dragging around a whole other bunny! His skin was scalded with urine and feces, appearing red, sore, and nearly bloody in places. This is possibly the worst case of neglect I have seen yet since opening the rescue! Surprisingly, however, both (male) bunnies appear to be neutered! The video explains more and we will continue to update everyone as to their well being. An email has already been sent to Parkway vet to get them in to be seen. We are accepting donations to help with their care as we have been experiencing financial hardship for quite some time. Anything helps. 🙏🏻. Venmo & PayPal - @RomeoRabbitRescue. Cash App - $RomeoRabbitRescue. Zelle (586) 233-3129. Donations can also be called in directly to Parkway Small Animal & Exotic Vet on their behalf.

Mama Sunshine and Daddy Magic’s babies are 8 weeks and 3 days old. Our first baby, Peter, will be moving to his FTA home today but we have no other homes lined up for the remaining 6 babies. We are processing one application for one of the girls. I’ve been hoping we can stretch the litter out to 9 weeks before having to separate them, but this morning during play time, River (in this video) got a bit to excited and started chasing her sister, Cocoa Puff (black girl). And it wasn’t a friendly chase, so River had to be separated out. It’s only a matter of time before the others follow suit. We really don’t have space to separate them. We need foster homes and since River’s already been separated out in a temporary pen, we need to find her a foster home first. River has always been one of the most social four of the seven. She’s also our zoomy and Binky queen. She does far more zoomies and binkies than her siblings. She total fun and total love and would make a great family bun! She’s good with kids who can follow basic bunny boundary rules. And she’s crazy stinkin adorable! If you are able to open up your home to her for ever or for a few months, visit our website at www.romeorabbitrescue.com to submit an application. These babies are the best and at present, none of them pee outside the litter box!

You know how much we love our Bear Family! If you don’t know about our Bear family, scroll through of previous posts (over the past 6 months) to catch up on their story. In a nutshell, we organized their emergency rescue after reports came in of two stray bunnies with missing body parts camping out under someone’s shed. Concerned their injuries were fresh, we took them in prepared to get them emergency medical care. However, when they arrived we could see their injuries were old and fully healed. We could also plainly see Mama Bear’s bulging wiggly belly and two days later 9 beautiful babies were born! We were able to get Papa Bear neutered immediately and set him up in an adjacent pen to his bunwife and babies. Mama Bear began having significant health complications about a week after her babies were born, resulting in an emergency ER visit, multiple follow up visits and an EKG. Eventually her health was cleared and we were able to get her spayed. Our plan was always to put Mama and Papa back together after their surgeries. It was evident that their bond was deep. They had an abundance of love for eachother and frequently expressed that through their pens. But Mama and Papa had one shy baby among their very social litter. Her sponsors, Tonya and Tommy, named her Trowzee and since she was unable to find a home, she was allowed to stay with her Mama. Mama Bear’s bond to her daughter is just as strong as to Papa Bear. Papa Bear also seemed to develop a bond to his daughter through their pens. We were just waiting for Trowzee to be spayed to put our Bear Family Trio together at last. Black Bear Faramir is their only baby boy to not find a home, perhaps because he was black. Who knows, because he’s a dream! So Mama, Papa, Trowzee, and Faramir have remained at the rescue. However, Faramir is so highly adoptable by himself, and, while trios are very hard to adopt out, foursomes are near impossible. So there was never a plan to include Faramir in the group. Wh
Mama Sunshine and Daddy Magic’s babies will need to be separated by Sunday when they turn 8 weeks old. So far we only have a home lined up for one baby, and are processing an application for one more. That leaves 5, maybe 6, babies still needing homes. They can go to foster or foster to adopt homes as soon as Sunday. For foster to adopt programs, we continue to pay for medical up until and including their spay or neuter surgery and the adoption can be finalized as soon as they recover from surgery. We provide xpens and supplies for foster only homes, while the foster families provide consumables such as food, hay, greens, and litter pellets. Submit your application via our website at www.romeorabbitrescue.com. They are the friendliest babies and love people!

Mama Sunshine went back to the vet today to have her blood work rerun. Last Friday she had blood work done and her PCV came back so low that she really shouldn’t have even been alive. Dr. Knapp wanted to retest her blood because he questioned the accuracy of the results, which were sent out to a lab. Today her blood was processed in house. They ran 4 tests and consistently came back with NORMAL PCV! Her labs that were sent out were WRONG! This is a huge relief but also very scary. Imagine if our vet trusted the results and recommended euthanasia without double checking. It makes you wonder how many beloved pets might have been put down do to inaccurate test results. 😰 I definitely recommend insisting on a retest or second opinion before agreeing to euthanasia. Clearly tests can be wrong! Sunshine’s E. Cuniculi test also came@back today and that was positive. I has already felt strongly that she was EC positive and began treating her for it last Friday. I also started her on Baytril over the weekend concerned that she may have an underline infection. (Her ears had a lot of wax build up and some of it was quite wet). Dr. Knapp agreed with that call and wants us to keep her on Baytril as well as the panacure. She’s still a little tilty and clearly not feeling well, but she has started to move around a little more these last couple days. She even approached me seeking attention which she hasn’t done in a while. And I notice she is flopped on the floor of her enclosure more with her babies and less in her hidey bed. I take these all as good signs. She’s still got a road ahead of her and I don’t know if she’ll be well enough to be spayed on the 17th as scheduled (probably not) but I am hopeful now that she will recover. Thank you everyone for the prayers, well wishes, and donations. It all helps! ♥️
