This is Gilbert. One of our volunteers spotted him falling over (on Gilbert St in Richmond) and another volunteer went out and caught him. (Thank you Amber and Lynn). He went to our shelter and then to Little Paws to see Dr. Adam. He underwent treatment for parasites and possible poisoning. We are neither mandated nor budgeted to pick up rabbits like Gilbert, but how can you not? Animal control in Richmond won’t pick them up, and if they’re brought in they’ll just be euthanized, they don’t have the resources for long term care. But neither do we. And now we have Gilbert. And Gilbert’s sizable vet bill. His uncertain future is in our hands. We’re in desperate need of foster homes and Sick Bunny Fund contributions for rabbits like Gilbert. We just can’t leave them out there.

Don't forget about the bunnies for your Giving Tuesday donations this year!
Giving Tuesday is just a few days away, and Team Bunny will be working hard to fundraise for rabbits in need. Thankfully, we've had two extraordinarily generous donors offering to match a total of $8,000 in donations. 🐰🥰
These donations can make such a huge difference, not just for the bunnies in our care, but for the bunnies in our community - it means more vaccine clinics, improved living conditions, and increased support for bun parents in need.
It can also propel Rabbitats to expand our capacity and open for intake once again. This is essential to help put an end to the abandoned rabbit crisis. But we need your help.
How can you donate?
All donations made on Tuesday, December 3rd will be matched (up to $8,000). Donations can be made through:
🐰🐰🐰Rabbitats.org/donate
🐰🐰🐰Paypal.com/ca/fundraiser/charity/3764772
🐰🐰🐰Donate to our Current Sick Bunny Fundraiser (Up on FB + Instagram Tuesday!)
The bunny community thanks you. 💞💗
