Update, January 9, 2017 — Greyson is the first of the Sandusky County Twelve to find a family. He is happily hopping around the home of his new parents, Rich and Donna Brady. In the photo below with the mom and babies, he is the gray little one.

Out of the Court and, with your Help, into a Home

sandusky_01

In June, we were contacted to see if we could help with a cruelty case in Sandusky County involving twelve seized rabbits, including a mom with four babies.  There are two Flemish Giants, one Dutch boy, and the rest are all small Rex buns with a variety of colors.  After moving some of our existing fosters to other foster homes (thank you!!), we squeezed them in.  Tied up in the legal system, we were unable to alter or adopt out any of these rabbits until they were surrendered five months later.

During the holding time, the babies aged enough that they all had to be moved to individual housing, using up even more precious area for other fosters.  Since these rabbits are using nearly all of our housing space, we’ve had no room for stray intakes.  Of course, un-altered rabbits tend to be less than neat and have poor litterbox habits … and these guys are exceptional urine sprayers, hence much time is spent on cleaning.  However, everybun is healthy and friendly now and the process of getting them altered has begun.  Clearly, this will be a long and expensive process!  Can you help them – and us?  Click to donate directly for them.

These bunnies in BHRS foster care need a permanent home. All BHRS rabbits are (or will be) spayed/neutered, litterbox-trained, and socialized.

Lacey

Lacey’s adoption story is a special one.  Lacey was dumped on the doorstep of John and Ruth Miller of Indiana.  Ruth is a wild cottontail rehabber.  The next morning, Lacey gave birth to a large litter and Ruth contacted us for help.  Three weeks later, Lacey and her seven babies come into our Fremont foster home.  All of her babies were adopted out — but for the next two years, Lacey remained in foster care.

Recently, out of the blue, we received an email from the Millers.  They felt bad that Lacey was still in foster care and they would love to give her a forever home with them.  We are so excited and happy that Lacey has a special loving home with John and Ruth Miller — in the place where she was first rescued.

Meet Lacey!  Lacey is the mother of the Indiana babies.  Lacey was dumped on the porch of a cotton-tail rehabber only to give birth to eleven kits the next day.  (She raised the seven babies who survived right here in our foster home.)  Lacey is looking for her fur-ever home.  She loves baby carrots, cardboard boxes, hay munching (and long walks on the beach – just kidding).

White bunnies with pink eyes are the hardest for us to adopt out.  Please give her a chance at a life she deserves and show her that she is anything but disposable.

Grayson

Grayson has found his forever home with Lorea and Justin.  He is a happy only child, just the way he likes it.  His new favorite thing is to watch movies on the couch with his humans.

Grayson or Little Gray isn’t actually very little.  This big boy is about two and a half years old.  He has perfect litter box habits and is only slightly grumpy (looking).

Peewee

Peewee is now the happiest, most spoiled bunny with his new family.  Lama, Dale, and Carmen (bunny) are all pleased with their new addition.  Congrats on your new fuzzy son!

Peewee is a spunky yet lovey two-and-a-half pound boy. While he enjoys treats, he really loves attention and room to roam. Given the proper space he will show off some spectacular binkies.
