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:
 
** Minimum of £5.00 a month donation required.

Angel
5 yr old female dwarf lop who sadly suffers very badly from a disease called Pasturella and has to be on daily antibiotics in order to keep the disease under control. Angel joined us on 17th September 2004 along with her sister Button. Angel, like the others here with pasturella, has good days and bad days. Angel is a very naughty little bunny who likes nothing more than to make a complete mess of her hutch. She loves attention and especially likes to be fed first or there is big trouble and noise!!
Bella
Bella is a 1 yr old mini lop, a very shy little girl that likes to lead a quiet life. She likes to be stroked but hates being handled or picked up.
Bernie
Bernie is 2 1/2 years old and suffers from full blown pasturella and has been on permanent antibiotics now for over 3 months, sadly at the moment they don't seem to be working. He constantly sneezes and has recently had breathing difficulties which involved a trip to the vets.
Billy
Billy is a 5 year old agouti dwarf lop that could be Chester's baby brother!! He is currently being treated for an eye infection and oral antibiotics as he is showing symptoms of pasturella.

Boogie
Boogie is now 4 years old and was born here at the centre. Sadly Boogie has some temperment issues and so can't be rehomed.
Bubble
Bubble is now 5 years old and sadly can't be rehomed due to behaviour issues. She's a lovely little girl that just likes to be left alone.
Buster
Buster is now 6 1/2 years old and is such a lovely character. He causes trouble and noise wherever he goes. Buster has serious eye issues that leaves red weepy open sores on the skin around his eyes. He also has pasturella. A while ago Buster had an operation on his eye to help him. No matter how poorly he is Buster always comes to you for cuddles and fuss.

Sadly Buster died 30/12/09 after a long fight with illness. He will be missed so very much
Chester ''The Mascot''
Chester is nearly 6 years old and is such a wonderful bunny that's loved so much by us all. A few years ago Chester was so ill he was to be put to sleep because no medication or treatment was helping his pasturella. After a lot of thought, Chester's medication was stopped and he hasn't looked back since. That was 5 years ago. Chester is the centre's mascot and has raised well over £1500.

Chester would like to thank - Marie, Lisa and Holly for sponsoring him
