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!!

Taylor

Please click on a thumbnail to see a larger image

Taylor was a teeny black and white holland lop who used to live with a family who's solution to not wanting him anymore was to let him go into the wilds of the world. Fortunately before that happened, he was taken by a woman who knew the family. Taylor then spent a few years or so in a backyard hutch. There, he developed cataracts and was eventually moved indoors (where rabbits SHOULD be). Thankfully Taylor got a friend. A loving, caring friend at that, named Bebe. Bebe nurtured and cared for Taylor as his sight got progressively worse. Taylor used Bebe as his "eyes" and to help him get around, find his food and use the litter box. Unfortunately, Taylor never received the veterinary care he so desparately needed and he was not let out of his cage to exercise. He was now blind and his back legs were very weak from lack of movement and exercise.

Due to family circumstances, Bebe and Taylor (yet again) needed to find a new home. 3Bunnies graciously took them in, despite Taylor's condition. Taylor finally, after at least 6 years of life, got the love, care and medical attention he needed and 3Bunnies vowed to only let them go to a home that could care for them and specifically Taylor's disabilities.

Sadly, Taylor's health detoriorated despite the continued love and efforts of his foster mom, Mona. The cataracts and infections had taken a toll on his frail little body and the prognosis was not good. He was suffering and in pain and there was nothing left that could be done. With his foster mom at his side, Taylor was helped over the bridge.

This sweet little soul survived so much hardship in his life. But when he passed, it was with someone who finally loved him. He crossed the bridge, having eventually known love from both humans and animals (Bebe & Lilly), the freedom to explore and the strength to never give up on life, no matter how badly life treated him.

Taylor, you were one of a kind and will be missed by those who's lives you've touched.
