Shelters In Crisis!!
Shelters across the country are in crisis right now, overloaded with unwanted rabbits who are in danger of being euthanized. Blame it on Easter "impulse purchases" or simply the amazing reproductive capabilities of rabbits, but once again this year, If you can find room in your home, please consider helping your local shelter or rescue by adopting or fostering a bunny in need - you'll be saving a life. Literally.


Easter And Bunnies Don't Mix

Please Don't Give Pets As Gifts!!
Shelters and rescues are inundated with animals that were given as gifts to people who didn't really want them and don't know how to take care of them. They expect this year to be no different, beginning on the day after Christmas. Please don't give a live animal as a gift - give a stuffed plush toy instead, or consider making a donation to a rescue or shelter in someone's name as a gift. Just please don't give a live animal as a gift - it requires a lifelong commitment to the pet, and too often they get shortchanged. Thanks!!

**** Announcements ****

We are pleased to announce that 3 Bunnies Rabbit Rescue, Inc. and Dave's Soda and Pet City have joined forces to try and find homes for rescued rabbits. Last year Dave's stopped selling rabbits and approached 3 Bunnies about helping our cause. Dave's is providing space for our foster rabbits and sponsoring their care, while waiting to be adopted into a forever home.

At Dave's Soda and Pet City in Agawam MA, you will find rabbit care info packets, a book of 3 Bunnies adoptable rabbits and some of our rabbits available for adoption, not to mention a wide variety of rabbit care supplies at Dave's.

Come by and say hello!

This big sweet baby is one of three surviving rabbits recently found at the Twin Brooks Park in Trumbull CT.

The Trumbull ACO was called to the park where 10 dead rabbits were found strewn about. After retrieving all the dead bodies, and returning to the shelter, the ACO was called back to the park, where Spirit was found alive. Thin, covered in filth, and with very bad sore hocks, Spirit was cleaned as best she could be. Taken in by 3 Bunnies, Spirit went for immediate vet care. Stabilized, she returned back to her foster home. Spirit will be going for further vet care, as she finding it difficult to put weight on her back feet. She has bare raw areas on her, a runny eye and is still soiled. Spirit will be in for a long recovery and we are determined to get her through this. What is amazing is, despite what she has been through, Spirit is sweet and lovable. If you would like to help, please consider sponsoring Spirit.

We would also like to thank Mandy at Cotton Tail Rabbit Rescue who took in the other female bun survivor that is in very bad shape. We would also like to thank Rabbit Allies of CT for finding a wonderful volunteer to come forward and offer to cover vet care for the male survivor. Thank you to Linda from Hop A Long Hollow and Dawn of Half Way Home and 3 Bunnies, for contacting the media. Thank you to Trumbull Shelter and the Animal Control Officers.
