HOMELESS RABBITS


Name: Gabrielle
Location: The Rabbit Residence. Great Chishill, Nr Royston Hertfordshire.
Contact: 020 7151 0168
Website: Click here for more information.
History: Gabrielle was rescued from a breeder to whom she was no longer useful. When she came to The Rabbit Residence she had terrible mastitis, lumps on her underside and abscesses, but she’s now fit and healthy and looking for a home with plenty of space. She’ll require a shed of 6x4 foot, a run of at least 10x6 ft due to her size, ideally access to a garden and a buck to live with as rabbits are social animals, but same sex bunnies tend to fight. Her new husband can be any size or breed of rabbit, but must be neutered.

Name: Snowball and Splodge
Location: The Rabbit Residence. Great Chishill, Nr Royston Hertfordshire.
Contact: 020 7151 0168
Website: Click here for more information.
History: Snowball and Splodge are a couple looking for a home together. They are house rabbits but need access to a garden. Splodge is a neutered buck around 4 years old. He’s a chinchilla and white dwarf lop and weighs about 2.5 kilos. He’s in good health but when he came to the rescue centre he hadn’t been cared for properly and is now looking for a loving home.

Snowball is a female rabit of just over a year old. She’s an albino french lop and has had to have her front teeth removed but she can eat fine – you just have to grate her vegetables for her! She has blocked tearducts and needs her eyes wiping occasionally and this has put people off adopting her in the past.

Name: Posh and Becks
Location: The Rabbit Residence. Great Chishill, Nr Royston Hertfordshire.
Contact: 020 7151 0168
Website: Click here for more information.
History: Posh and Becks are both tortoiseshell and white, but Posh has much more white in her fur. They are both very friendly and love to be stroked and help to clean out their shed. They’re both 3 years old, neutered dwarf lops and need a home together with plenty of space and lots of love.

The Rabbit Residence is supporting the 'Make Mine Chocolate!' campaign. This campaign aims to raise awareness of the sad plight of the thousands of pet rabbits bought as presents at Easter and then abandoned months if not weeks later. To help spread the message that "Chocolate is a Treat, Rabbits are a Commitment" you can download a poster from the following website: www.makeminechocolate.co.uk.

33,000 rabbits are abandoned every year, and it's important to make people aware that a rabbit is a big commitment: they sometimes live to a ripe old age of 14 years!
