Nevaeh Rabbitry & Rescue

26/05/2025

Not rabbit related, but I remember when this rescue first started. They've come so far and have helped so so many, since then. If you can't adopt, a share is all it takes!

🐾 SURRENDER OVERLOAD – We Need Your Help 🐾

Hi everyone — I know we just put out a call for donations yesterday, but we’re reaching out again because the situation has become overwhelming.

This week, we’ve received more surrender requests than ever before. Just in the past 20 minutes, we've been contacted about five bearded dragons needing homes. And today, we had to say no to a medical case we desperately wanted to help because we cannot financially commit to a surgical case right now.

We’re at a breaking point, and we’re asking for your help in any way you can offer it:

1️⃣ Donations:
If you’re in a position to give, even a small amount, now is the time. Every dollar helps us say “yes” to the animals that need us.

2️⃣ Adoptions:
If you’ve been considering adopting, please take a look at our available animals. We will continue to carefully vet every applicant — but we are especially in need of homes for leopard geckos and ball pythons. Some of our normal ball pythons and spicier ball pythons have been here for 1-2 years. Giving an animal a second chance is one of the most impactful ways to help.

3️⃣ Spread the word:
Tell your friends about adopting instead of buying and discourage people from breeding oversaturated species. One of the surrender requests we received today was for dragons the person had produced themselves. We are absolutely drowning in bearded dragon surrender requests. It's constant. And when people find out there's a waitlist, we too often hear, “Can I just let it go outside?”

💔 This is not sustainable.

To Petco, PetSmart, and other large retailers:
We know this may be shouting into the void, but we have to say it — you are creating a volume of animals we cannot keep up with. Please reconsider your policies, and if nothing else, support the rescues left to pick up the pieces. The VAST majority of animals surrendered to us originally came from chain pet stores.

To everyone reading this: you are the reason we can keep going. Please help if you can — with donations, adoptions, or simply by spreading the word.

Thank you for standing with us. 💚

A cute opportunity for those wanting easter photos around the Fayetteville/Grays Creek area! I will be out of frame helping assist with the little fuzz balls who have been socialized daily. Reach out to Logan Jacobs Photography for more information and booking!

Just some baby updates! *Some* will be looking to hop to new homes by the end of April after I get done partnering with a photographer friend for Easter sessions. Not pictured is a black and white doe (sister to the first pictured brown (tort) and white who is claimed). By the end of the week I should have photos of her.
The black and siamese sable have tighter crowns like their sire did. Nothing in this batch do I plan to let go for breeding due to the sire throwing enough scattered white hairs, so all pet quality.

Important PSA!

Rabbits give birth around this time of year. Many people see newborn rabbits (kits) in plain sight, or in shallow holes tucked among clumps of thick grass, under shrubs, or in the middle of open lawns. Rabbit nests often resemble a small patch of dead grass. Female rabbits (called “does”) actively avoid their nests and visit only once or twice per day for a few minutes to avoid attracting predators.

If a young rabbit is outside its nest and appears to be healthy and unharmed, leave it alone. The mother will usually return after humans leave the area. If it is believed the animal needs help, leave it alone and call the Wildlife Helpline at 866-318-2401.

Rabbits for Meat: Let’s Talk About It 🐇

When the topic of raising rabbits for meat comes up, many people react with comments like:

“Poor rabbits!”

“How could you eat them?”

“Humans will eat anything these days!”

I get it, raising rabbits for meat can be a hard concept to accept at first. I had the same doubts and questions. But you know what changed my mind?

KNOWLEDGE.

Here’s what I learned that shifted my perspective:

1. Rabbits Were Domesticated for Meat

Historically, rabbits have been raised as a sustainable source of high-quality protein.

They require less space, feed, and resources compared to other livestock.

2. Minimal Waste

Almost every part of the rabbit is usable:

Meat for food.

Fur for crafting or clothing.

Manure as one of the best organic fertilizers.

Organs, feet, and even ears have practical uses.

3. Sustainability at Its Best

Rabbits grow quickly and breed efficiently, making them an excellent choice for small-scale farming.

Their small ecological footprint makes them a sustainable option for meat production.

4. Proper Care and Ethical Practices

I educated myself on breeding, handling, and humane dispatching.

Learning to care for rabbits properly ensures their welfare and health.

I adapted my practices to ensure their needs are met in any climate or condition.

Why Judge Others?

Every meat you buy in stores, pre-packaged and convenient, came from an animal too.

Just because you didn’t witness the process doesn’t make it “better” than those who raise and harvest their own food.

A Choice Rooted in Responsibility

Choosing to raise and harvest food isn’t easy—it requires dedication, respect for the animals, and a commitment to sustainability.

It’s not for everyone, and that’s okay. But let’s avoid shaming those who take this route to provide for their families.

At the end of the day, it’s about:

Sustainability.

Respect for the animals we raise.

Providing for our loved ones

It's late... But my much awaited litter of Rex has finally arrived. Georgia's Wyoming x Georgia/Sugar's Tennessee had 6 healthy babies (7 but 1 was DOA). I'm excited to do some fun Valentine's themed names I have in mind for any potential holdbacks. Oooh how excited I am to have these precious chunks here finally. There's just something about a baby Rex that has my heart. ❤️

Some things are not so Holland-y around here. Carrot Cake is learning more one on one handling and is such a sweet, inquisitive girl. She's a part of an outcross project.

On a side note, Rex is nesting today.

30/01/2025

Well, for once 8 babies are on the ground again and doing well. 3 week olds and the chocolate litter is 2 tomorrow. Pics are a few days old.

Rex will be due February 11th

Pictures for updates as I've been pretty sad and empty handed for almos the last year, quite literally. It's funny people say "breed like rabbits," until you're a rabbit breeder and they don't work like that 😅😂😂

I cannot guarantee availability at this time, I'm planning to grow e v e r y baby out until I see faults and issues I don't need to keep around within my personal herd.
