Southampton Rabbit Rescue - ''because bunnies deserve better''
Bunnies requiring sponsors
 
Southampton Rabbit Rescue runs a “sponsorship” scheme which has been set up especially to help raise funds for the rabbits that live here permanently and are here due to ill health, age or behaviour issues.  Some of these rabbits have been with us for some years.  The constant vet and basic supply bills will often run into thousands of pounds each year.
 
The money received from the sponsorship scheme is sent directly to our vet and helps cover the cost of basic and routine medication and surgery.  We only ask for whatever you can afford to give, rather than a set amount.
 
Listed below are some of the bunnies that are currently looking for sponsors.
 
**Each sponsor will receive a “portfolio” containing:
 
** To receive the full Portfolio a minimum of £5.00 a month donation required.This is due to printing, posting and packing costs.

Bella & Misty
Bella & Misty
Both girls have been at the centre for nearly 2 years.

Bella is a 2 yr old mini lop, a very shy little girl that likes to lead a quiet life. He suffers from sticky bottom so like Misty is on a strict diet.

Misty is a beautiful 2 year old chocolate otter mini lop. Sadly when Misty jined us at 8 weeks old back in April she was so stressed that we nealry lost her. She has diarrhoea and mucoid enteritis which nealry killed her. Some home she pulled through and is such a strong little bunny that now loves her veggies!! Sometimes called ''Hannibal'' !!!

They have both settled very well together and it's nice to see them enjoying each others company.
Blossom
Blossom
Blossom is a very friendly 6 yr old dwarf lop, sadly though Blossom has paraylsis on the left side of her face and also a large cyst in her right groin which has to be aspirated every two months or so. Blossom was left at a local veterinary practice.

Blossom has recently been very poorly as the E Cuniculi took hold casuing fits and standing issues. She has now finished her course of medication and seems to be doing ok.
Blossom would like to thank her sponsor Marie.
Bubble

Bubble is currenlty going through a very heavy moult (april 2011) Bubbles has recently under gone her first dental after it was discovered she had a nasty abscess.

NEWS - March 2011 Bubble in recent months has had terrible sticky bottom and so has now been placed on a hay only diet with a small amount of pellets as a treat only. Bubble is currently (096/04/11) being treated for bloat/stasis, she is moulting heavily and has ingested a lot of fur.

Heidi ''ole timer''
Heidi ''ole timer''
Heidi is 11 years old!!! She's here as her owner currently is unable to look after her. She had flystrike back in April 2008 but made a remarkable recovery. Now she has lost some much needed weight she can really get about. Heidi celebrates her 11th birthday on the 21st April this year..... she would love some pressies!!!

Heidi would like to thank her sponsor - James
Herbie
Herbie
Herbie a beautiful 2 year old french lop. He has a temperement to match his size - masssive!! He's a great lad who sadly has an abscess on the right side of his jaw. The abscess was removed in August last year but sadly because the abscess was linked to his jaw bone there is no cure. So every so many weeks Herbie has to undergone 10 days of depocilian. He never complains though and as long as he gets his cuddles he can cope with his injections. it was a year ago on the 20/08/11 that Herbie under went his facial surgery.

Would you like to sponsor Herbie, he would be very happy to give lots of cuddles!

Herbie would like to thank his new sponsor Gill
Louie

Louie is a beautiful blue mini lop that's sadly going blind. he's nearly 3 years old but has a disease called E Cuniculi. He has already lost the sight in his left eye and is now going blind in his right eye. He's a lovely little boy that thrives on attention. He loves nothing morethan to have his nose rubbed and kissed everytime you walk past.

Louie would like to thank his sponsor - Elizabeth
Lucky
Lucky
Lucky was rescued from a pet shop in August 2003 and was suffering from severe stomach stasis cause from being taken away from his mother too early. He was not expected to live being so small but nearly 8 years on he is still with us. He has grown a little more and has become a very affectionate and happy bunny who loves to play. Lucky has had to have treatment for an eye infection and is now doing really well.

Funny with Lucky we've had him so long i often forget just how old he is. Prefering the quieter life now in his OAP years but will still happily have a cuddle.
Mischief
Mischief
Mischief as his name would suggest is trouble!!! He is a darling of a bunny that loves fuss, attention and cuddles. Mischief is 3 years old and a beautiful chocolate mini lop. He suffers from sticky bottom and so is on a very strict diet. Trying to get his photo is difficult as he never stops moving!!!.

Mischief would like to thank his sponsor Caroline.
Rita
Rita
Rita will be 9 years old this year, and here at the centre because her owner could no longer look after her. We have to monitor Rita's diet very carefully because she is prone to sticky bottom. Rita has recently undergone major surgery to have a bladder stone removed. She came though the operation very well and is picking up slowly. The cost £150.00.

Rita has been poorly in recent (Feb 2011) months, sitting in the vets waiting to be seen she passed a whopping stone. Masde my eyes water and must of been so painful for her to pass.
