Hello Rabbit Lovers,
We here at "Rabbit Run" have a Bunny Barn where "big beautiful bold bunnies" are kept for loving homes....
For you see we are Rabbit Rescue NY (near Buffalo/Lockport) (
[email protected]) where we have been taking in unloved bunnies from families and giving them a good home till a family who loves bunnies is willing.
Our busiest time of the year seems to be May/June/July/August when all of those "Easter Bunnies" grow up and nobody in "that particular" family loves or even feeds them anymore, I have heard many stories of "did you feed the rabbit in the basement today" and such like that.
So people search us out and we provide a loving home where bunnies are loved, fed, cared for, and exercised each day (depending on weather) in the rabbit run. We work with a Vet that specializes in small animals of all kinds, and we also work with the local SPCA in adoption & foster care when they get too many (usually in a "house raid") We also work with the House Rabbit Society as to adoption rules.
Our oldest bunny is Daisey a "mean tempered" "tude" bunny Lop-Ear who likes things "her way" and will attack if she doesn't like what you are doing...feeding...watering....haying...etc she doesn't have a reason...it's just her. Other times you can pick her up or pet her and no problem...not often though!
She bit my wife Cheryl when she had gloves on while feeding her pellets & hay...we figure she didn't like the gloves! We have Stew-ette a female Rex rabbit who is very smart, listens to what you say and tries to "understand" what you are saying, Henry "the Houdini" rabbit who can escape any cage unless it is wired down tight!
Lucy a miniature female who was rescued from a lady who was just gonna let her loose in the wild of her backyard because rabbits can fend for them selves "can't they"?
Hopper a big black domestic "meat rabbit" who came from a rabbit production farm (meat farm), he was given to us after the "production got too much" for the family raising meat rabbits!
Hazel is white with gray ears female who is just lovey, and loves to be hugged & loved, very communicative and is our "star" Easter bunny this year.
Her bonded mate is a fixed male called "Dutchy" a Dutch rabbit who also was rescued who loves Hazel (you can see it!) and stays with her when they are out in the rabbit run, as well as when they are in the bunny ban.
When one is loose in the yard (lots of clover) near the barn the other is in the rabbit run they stay right near each other.
We even have a handi-capped bunny named "Smudge" who has a cleft palette that we use for Christian ministry with children to discuss handi-capped children.
There's more but I can't remember the rest at the moment.
OK so I'll get off the soapbox and introductions.
(Yes the same guy with chickens (on this list) also in Lockport NY, as well as ducks & geese & soon turkeys to be raised.
