Shelters In Crisis!!
Shelters across the country are in crisis right now, overloaded with unwanted rabbits who are in danger of being euthanized. Blame it on Easter "impulse purchases" or simply the amazing reproductive capabilities of rabbits, but once again this year, If you can find room in your home, please consider helping your local shelter or rescue by adopting or fostering a bunny in need - you'll be saving a life. Literally.


Easter And Bunnies Don't Mix

Please Don't Give Pets As Gifts!!
Shelters and rescues are inundated with animals that were given as gifts to people who didn't really want them and don't know how to take care of them. They expect this year to be no different, beginning on the day after Christmas. Please don't give a live animal as a gift - give a stuffed plush toy instead, or consider making a donation to a rescue or shelter in someone's name as a gift. Just please don't give a live animal as a gift - it requires a lifelong commitment to the pet, and too often they get shortchanged. Thanks!!

Thank You!!

Noffy Says Thank You!!

Hi all - I'm Noffy, the Rex in front. I just wanted to thank you all for supporting 3 bunnies and how much it's helping other bunnies like me. They literally saved my life!! Six months at the pet store - no one even looked at me. Then I'm left in the basement of an empty house with two other bunnies. Then six months at the shelter, and no one even looked at me. The nice people at 3 Bunnies camw and took me from the shelter the day before I was going to be put to sleep. I got adopted and I'm now in a very happy home!! 3 Bunnies couldn't have done it without your support , so THANK YOU!! YOU HELPED SAVE MY LIFE!! Now I have a loving mate, and there are two females from 3 Bunnies who live here too - and they're twins. They've been together since the beginning of time in their worlds. Now that's a bond. Without your help none of this would have been possible, and Tamari, my mate here, would be the only one of us that wasn't put to sleep.

Our Featured Sponsorship Bunny


Pippin

This sweet English Spot/Dwarf mix, white and brown spotted, approx 4-5lbs, was surrendered to a CT ACO shelter, along with her mate Pugsly (picture pending). Her former person had become very ill, and could no longer provide for them. they had been at the shelter almost 2 months, before 3 Bunnies became aware of them. Seeing Pippin needed medical attention, 3 Bunnies immediately offered help (the shelter had taken the rabbits to a veterinarian).

As you can see, Pippin had a large area under her chin and neck that is raw and crusted with dried pus. Her front feet had raw areas, and she would only gingerly put weight on them, often curling them under her. She was immediately seen by our vet. Her teeth are mostly nubs (she is an older girl), thus causing her to drool. Pippin was cleaned up, and put on antibiotics, a special skin cream, and pain meds. Two days into treatment, Pippin was eating hay, pellets and chopped up greens. Her neck and feet showed improvement.

Pippin just went for a follow up, and is having to have dental work done for molar spurs. It was also noted that her side and hind leg is missing fur, and we suspect she is pulling out the fur due to hormones, so the vet feels she can not wait to be spayed, which is also being done. Pippin is such a sweet girl, and her mate, Pugsly, takes such wonderful care of her. She has a bit of a long road ahead of her in rehab, but with plenty of TLC and proper vet care, we are optimistic that Pippin's future looks bright!!

Please consider helping Pippin by making a sponsorship donation. Any amount, whether large or small, will make a world of difference to Pippin.

Special thanks to the following people for helping sponsor Pippin's special needs:
  • Linda J.
  • the St.Louis County Neighborhood Preservation Program, in memory of Gwendolyn Phippen, a true rabbit lover.
  • C. Jayne Phippen-Hunt, in loving memory of Gwendolyn Phippen!!
