Rabbit Rescue, Control & Management

Baby Keara is fighting for her life.

One of our adopters alerted us to a struggling baby in Richmond. There are many bunnies in the area… but something was very wrong with this little babe.

They were dragging one foot behind them as they took shelter in a bush. Their finder was able to scoop them up and bring them to us.

We immediately placed the baby with foster Jen, where they’ve been fighting for their life for the past three weeks.

After 6 vet visits, what first appeared to be a leg injury turned out to be multiple painful abscesses and a serious infection. The abscesses have required repeated flushing, antibiotics, and treatment, while also manually expressing their bladder.

Most recently, they urinated on their own for the first time since arriving, and their previously “paralyzed” leg is beginning to move again as the swelling goes down. Jen is feeding them all of the treats and greens they could want.

They had their 6th checkup last week, and we’re cautiously hopeful... they've been such a fighter.

Donations are appreciated for their costly medical care, and please keep Baby Keara in your thoughts.
