A Note from Livingston

Hello! Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Livingston and I moved
in with Reilly, Cathy and Clay last Friday, 2/3.

I’d been living at the shelter for almost a year, and was about a year old when I arrived. Clay took a liking to me and made sure I had a nice cage with a fine view.
Before the shelter, I was passed from one family to nother. The first family couldn’t afford me; I’m a big boy and do like to eat. My time with the second family
was short lived and ended with their divorce. At least I was lucky enough to find my way to the shelter – I don’t want to think of some of the other ways things
could have turned out. Thanks to everyone at the shelter for taking such good care of me.

I was introduced to Reilly at the shelter on a Tuesday afternoon. She
was sad and lonely and in need of a companion. The loss of her friend
Zeta had hit her hard. I tried to be on my best behavior, but I couldn’t help
myself and had to flirt a little. She’s so sweet!
I was surprised to find myself in her house just a few days later. My new
home! I am having a ball running and binkying all over the place, and getting kisses. I’m a lucky bun!

New Alumni Page

Check out our new Alumni page to the right.
Send us your letter or pictures for the bunnies you have adopted! We will keep posting new pictures as we get them.
It really makes our day to see the bunnies in happy homes!

Pairs and Trios, Oh My!

It is not the easiest thing to bond two bunnies together. Just like people, some get along wonderfully, and some do not.
If you are thinking of adding more than one bunny to your home, why not consider adopting buns that have already been bonded! They don't take up too much more space than a single bunny.

We have several at the shelter, waiting for their forever homes!
Meet Georgia, Cocoa Puff and S'mores. These girls were born to Dove. Her story is heartbreaking. Dove was found stray by the side of the road. Her mate had been hit by a car, and she wouldn't leave him. She was already pregnant, and gave birth to 7 babies at the shelter. These three sisters are very loving with each other. A trio is 3 times the fun!

Meet Mr. Peepers and Teddi Beara. They are some of our longer time residents. They were put together, and it was Love at First Sight! They dote on each other constantly. Don't think that they wont want affection from you, since they are so bonded to each other. They both love (especially Mr Peepers!) to be petted and loved on by the volunteers at the shelter.

And previously introduced in the blog, but please meet again, Hanson and Mack
Hanson & Mack are cuteness times two! They (& two other brothers) were born just a few days after their mom was rescued by a Good Samaritan where she was discovered living under a car. Mom and her 4 babies were brought to the shelter and put into foster care where they could grow into experienced house bunnies. These loving cuties are very curious and enjoy running around and practicing their binkies.

If you would love to share your home with any of these beautiful pairs or trios, hop over to our adoption application so this bun can start a new life at your home!

Santa Pictures coming soon!

We will be having our annuall Santa pictures fundraiser on Sunday December 4th from Noon-3pm at the shelter. We hope to see everyone there!
Here are some pictures from last years event:

They are guaranteed to be double the fun!!

In Loving Memory

There is a new page to the right, to memorialize the buns we have loved and lost.

I'll lend you, for a little while, a bunny of mine, He said
For you to love while he lives, and mourn when he is dead.
It may be for twelve or thirteen years or maybe less than three.
But will you, till I call him back, take care of him for me?

He'll bring you charms to gladden you, and shall his stay be brief,
You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief.
I can not promise he will stay as all from earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there that I want this bun to learn.

I've looked the whole world over in search of teachers true
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes, I have selected you.
Now you will give him all your love- not to think this labor vain,
Nor hate me when I come to call to take him back again.

I fancied that I heard them say, Dear Lord thy will be done
For all the joy this bun shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run
We'll shower him with tenderness and love while we may
And for the happiness we've known, forever grateful stay.

And should the angels call for him much sooner than we planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand.
