Turtle and Midnight's Second Chance: Can you help?

life before!

life now they are rescued!

Where Turtle and Midnight resided before being rescued by a very caring Mary! Turtle and Midnight have spent the last 12 months in a tiny cage by the side of the road, standing on 4cm of their own droppings and getting no play time. They have been terrorised by dogs and been given no care or love from anyone except the comfort they have given each other.

A kind woman, Mary, has rescued them and taken the scared little girls into her home. But she already has 2 rescue rabbits, other animals and ihas suffered illness. She has too much on her plate to take them in permanently but has done such a wonderful job so far.

Sydney Pet Rescue and Adoption are helping Mary come up with the funds to desex these beauties and vaccinate against the Calici Virus so they can be rehomed and have a second chance at a happy, healthy life.

We are also looking for anyone interested in fostering or adopting contact Clare: bunnybooksydney@hotmail.com or 0405175511


You can donate here- even just 2 dollars so these guys have a better chance at forever happiness!

Thank you!

Urgent: Turtle and Midnight are looking for love!

Turtle and Midnight have spent the last 12 months in a tiny cage by the side of the road, standing on 4cm of their own droppings and getting no play time. They have been terrorised by dogs and been given no care or love from anyone except the comfort they have given each other.

A kind woman, Mary, has rescued them and taken the scared little girls into her home. But she already has 2 rescue rabbits, other animals and is suffering from cancer. She has too much on her plate to take them in permanently but has done such a wonderful job so far.

We are looking for some kind, caring people to take the two girls in short term or long term and provide a safe indoor space and let them adjust to a more comfortable, secure lifestyle (not in a cage!)

Please contact Clare at bunnybooksydney@hotmail.com or call 0405175511

 

Steve Maxwell has got both rabbits and Pittwater mayor in a stew
RESIDENTS say hunting rabbits with a bow and arrow is an acceptable way to control the “feral pests” on the peninsula.
The community has come out in support of the “bunny slayer”, Steve Maxwell, with at least one resident calling on the experienced hunter to kill rabbits on their property.
Mr Maxwell took the rabbit plague into his own hands, shooting rabbits on private properties in Warriewood with a bow and arrow.
He made a video, titled Bunny Slayer, and posted it on YouTube. The footage included slow-motion replays on rabbits being hit and his children holding weapons and rabbit carcasses.

Farmer Philip Kerry applied to set up barns at various locations across the country and says he could be up and running within nine months.

But the RSPCA said it had ‘serious concerns’ about the conditions for rabbits in battery farms, particularly the amount of space they were given.

"Rabbit Dressage to take the World by Storm"

That rabbits like to hop is hardly a secret. But now European rabbit enthusiasts have harnessed their bunnies' natural talents to create a new spectator sport... rabbit showjumping.

Invented in Sweden in the early Eighties, Kaninhop involves bunnies bouncing their way around courses consisting of several small jumps of varying height and length.

Snoopy, a black-and-white bunny from the German city of Jena, is the star of the local Kaninhop club - and he makes spends his days leaping over all manner of barricades, jumps and rails.
