Posted by Rabbitats on December 27, 2012Richmond isn’t the only ‘hot spot’ in the Vancouver area for ‘feral’ rabbit colonies — there’s a sizable population on Vancouver’s Jericho Beach. Rabbitats rescue partner Laura-Leah Shaw has been trying to keep these guys safe.
(Thanks to Rachael for the pics).

We love our volunteers. <3 When a rescue is caring for hundreds of rabbits, there are always questions about the ability to spot medical issues, but our sharp-eyed crew do a pretty good job. Health checks can be as simple as making sure every rabbit in every colony comes to eat when dinner is served, but issues like these ones are harder to spot. But spot them they did. :) (The toe bunny just got an immediate amputation surgery and the vets are still trying to figure out the issue with the urine scald bunny). ![]()
Rabbitats' protocol calls for monthly 'bunny spas' where all the rabbits get physical exams and grooming (if needed), but manpower is a challenge. We are again without a proper Volunteer Coordinator, we're hoping to fill that position ASAP, but in the meantime if anybody wants to step up for the spas, we'd really appreciate it! We're based in Richmond, BC. (PS: We already have a 'spa' scheduled for one of our micro-sanctuaries in the Surrey/North Delta area this Saturday if anybody wants to help).

Remember the girl the wonderful people at the Animal Emergency Clinic of the Fraser Valley called us about earlier this month? She was found on the side of the road in Richmond with an apparent injury and head tilt? We agreed to pay the bill and take her in but it turned out she was under the BC SPCA's account so we sent the donations their way ($250) and they took her in at their Vancouver location. They named her Tilda. 😆 Well she's now completely cured and as of tomorrow she'll be up adoption! She's apparently a sweetheart. <3
