You may remember Finnick as the adorable baby bun in the ducky slipper. He was brought in with his Mom and siblings in December. He’s grown so much and has been really enjoying his forever home 🌻💛

We love a good pen set up! Look at this beautiful pen that one of our fosters set up for Twitch and Zero. So many things to explore and chew on. It reminds us of a little forest 🌳

Foraging provides environmental enrichment that rabbits love! It allows them to graze which helps their digestive system function.

Did you know that Nova Scotia is home to the snowshoe hare? Domestic rabbits and snowshoe hares are related but different species. Your pet rabbit can be invasive to wild hare populations and cannot survive in the wild.

Many other animals rely on the snowshoe hare as a keystone species. If the snowshoe hare plummets so do many other species such as foxes, coyotes, lynx, hawks and owls.

Dumping domestic rabbits isn’t just a matter of animal welfare- it is an issue of ecosystem sustainability.

Hoppy Easter, every-bunny. We hope that your day is filled with lots of CHOCOLATE bunnies ❤️🐰

If you’re going to read any of our posts, let it be this one.

These numbers are extremely alarming and are showing no signs of stopping. The sad reality is that this is just myself, in less then 12 months of rescuing. There are many other rescues out there who have been in the game much longer than I have, who I’m sure have much higher numbers.

25 doesn’t seem like a lot and in truth, I wish it was more. I think I speak for all rescuers when I say, I wish I could save them all. ❤️🐰

This is your formal reminder not to buy a rabbit this Easter.

Instead, why not help out rabbits in need? We are always accepting donations of hay, rabbit food, blankets or monetary donations towards our vet fund (EMT to [email protected]) 🐣

Be a part of the solution this Easter season, not the problem.

Meet the snowshoe hare!

These little ones are the only species of wild rabbits that are native to Nova Scotia. In the winter the snowshoe hare is white with brown/ red ear tips, and brown/ red in the spring, summer and fall. This adaptation allows them to camouflage. They have large back feet that make them incredibly fast.

Fun fact about snowshoe hares: They have a breeding season, and will only breed when there is fresh vegetation. Leverts (baby hares) are born with a full coat of fur, eyes open and can hop around on their own within a few hours of birth.

*ATTENTION RESIDENTS OF WESTWOOD HILLS SUBDIVISION, TANTALLON*

Back in September we got word of a grey domestic rabbit that had been wandering at large in Westwood Hills subdivision near the area of Parklyn Court. Myself and residents spent a lot of time trying to capture the rabbit with no success. Unfortunately when the winter came the rabbit was no longer seen as often and frequently. His last sighting was 1 month ago.

We are reaching out to the community to see if we can locate the whereabouts of this rabbit in order to capture him. If this little fella has hunkered down on your property, or if you have seen him, please contact us. We would like to finally bring this little one inside and provide him with any vet care he might need.

EDIT: The community has reported multiple sightings of this little guy over the past few days. Myself and a volunteer will be in the area tomorrow to see if we can spot him.

We are gearing up for our first ever online auction to raise funds for the rescue April 16-22 and are so thankful to local wood carving artist DaVinci In Wood , Chainsaw Carvings for donating this stunning peacock sculpture to auction off ❤️

Saber has vetoed her pen and prefers spending her days lounging underneath the coffee table with snacks. Of course we had to grab her a comfy bed to make her lair complete ❤️

21/03/2023

Please note: We are currently closed for intake until further notice as we work through the rehabilitation and adoption of the rabbits who are currently in our care, and aid other rescues in the current influx of rabbits.

We will have multiple rabbits who will be looking for their forever homes after Easter has passed.

In the meantime, we are still seeking donations to help with vet costs which can be sent via EMT to [email protected]

If you see or capture a rabbit who is wandering at large please contact the HRM Animal Redemption Centre at (902) 536-2032.

Meet Twitch & Zero. These two beautiful giants are looking for a forever home together. They are approximately 1 year old and are due to be spayed at the beginning of April. They will be available for adoption mid April and we are currently taking applications to find them a forever home.

They are a bonded pair of sisters who came to us as part of a large group of rabbits who were wandering at large this past June. Both girls are sweet, curious and have a big love for fresh veggies. They are both large bunnies (9+ lbs) and will need a big xpen and plenty of space to free roam. Both girls will come spayed and fully vet checked (including dental examination) upon adoption.

If you are interested in adopting these two wonderful ladies, please email [email protected] or PM us for an application.
