Re: Rescue Rabbit/Guinea Pig of the Month May 2020
We would like to nominate Tricks.
Young Tricks was found dumped in a park in central London by a vet nurse, sadly no owners came forward to claim him so he has come to us.
He’s a beautiful bunny with very long ears

Re: Rescue Rabbit/Guinea Pig of the Month May 2020
Sweet Obsidian has been with us for a few weeks now after he was found in someone's garden and handed in. Upon arrival, he wasn't in bad shape but we knew a vet check was in order as he appeared to have cataracts in his left eye and beginning on the right side too. Luckily, the vet advised they are 'straight forward' cataracts in that although his eyesight will continue to deteriorate, he should otherwise be able to cope relatively well.
Obsidian's foster carer has reported that he's a super friendly boy who's settling in well and enjoying some home comforts after his rough start, and our adoptions team are busy looking for the right forever home for him. Fingers crossed he finds his perfect match soon!

Re: Rescue Rabbit/Guinea Pig of the Month May 2020
We would like to enter Benje please.
Benje is 4 years old now and has been at the centre for a little while. He was an ex breeding lop so sad that people can use rabbits with health issues for breeding but luckily for Benje, we have been able to offer him a sanctuary place in the bunny hospital building, and so he will remain at the Rescue for the rest of his life, as he suffers from terrible blocked tear ducts as you can see from the photos. He is such a little gentleman though and very sweet

Re: Rescue Rabbit/Guinea Pig of the Month May 2020
Winter and Crimbo will be 4 years old in Jun, and, they will have been in rescue for 4 years in Oct. They came from an appalling local breeder, who no longer breeds. They have become institutionalised, and tend to live their life in the shadows. Anything, like a claw clip can send them back into fear. I like to think their particularly withdrawn periods are becoming shorter. We gave them a larger space to live but they just became distressed. We are now worried they are not rehomeable.
