Need Foster Homes ASAP!
7/16/2010
UPDATE-These bunnies are now in a Bunny Bunch Foster Home.
Help! We need a foster home for these poor buns that have been dropped off at a city shelters. We are
full at the Burrow and don't have any open foster homes. They will need to be fostered indoors for 21
days, then they will be able to come to the Burrow. There are three ways you can help. The first
would be to adopt, the second would be to foster, and the third would be to send a donation of $50 to
pay the fee to get one or both buns out of the shelter. Please let us know if there is any way you can
help by emailing Caroline or calling us at 909-591-7200. Thanks a Bunny Bunch!

New Angel Bunny at the Bunny Bunch Burrow
4/18/2010
 Prince is one of the rabbits rescued from Long Beach City College. As you can see he is quite ill. He has a bad case of Syphilis. After doing health checks on about 100 of the rabbits at the college we founds signs of Syphilis on about thirty percent of them, which means they all need to be treated for it. Prince has a much worse case. The good news is Prince is now at the Bunny Bunch Burrow being treated. It won't be long before he will be back in good health and ready for adoption, when we will post a new picture of him. Because of your donations to our Angel Fund we are able to continue to rescue sick and injured rabbits, like Prince. Click
here to make a
donation, or you can send a check to The Bunny Bunch Angel Bunny Prince, P.O. Box 2583, Chino, CA 91708.

Long Beach Rabbit Rescue
3/26/2010
 Bunny Bunch is at it again. For years we have wanted
to help the hundreds of rabbits that have been
dumped at the Long Beach City College. One thing or
another always stood in the way, but this winter we
were able to come up with a plan.
Because we are already overloaded with rabbits at
the Burrow and in foster care we are not able to
take on another few hundred. We rescue our rabbits
from the high kill shelters and don't want to stop
doing that, so we thought it would be best to spay
and neuter all of the rabbits at the college and
then release them back to living on the grounds at
the college; at least that way the breeding would
end.
Of course we do not suggest that rabbits live
outside but thought this plan was better than none.
Over the last couple of months the Long Beach
rabbits have been taken to our vets for spaying and
neutering. This last week, rabbits were set up in a
building on the campus so we could do health checks
and get them ready for Western University’s visit to
spay and neuter one hundred rabbits.
We are looking for more vets to work with us on low
cost spay and neuter so we can finish all the rest
of the rabbits, which we are guessing to be about
200.
 People think that releasing their unwanted rabbit
into a nice green field, golf course, park, or
college is a nice way for a rabbit to live. Nothing
could be further from the truth. These are domestic
rabbits, not wild rabbits. It is illegal to abandon
a rabbit at the college, or anywhere else for that
matter. There is a $500 fine for anyone caught doing
so.
Many of the rabbits are killed by predators, run
over, or even poisoned. When a domestic rabbit is
put into a group of rabbits living outside they will
not accept him and will fight for territory which
results in bite wounds, torn ears, and other
injuries. There is often disease running within
groups of rabbits living outside. We have found that
at least thirty percent of the rabbits show signs of
syphilis. Many have fleas and mites too.
We are treating the sick rabbits for all of the
above. When we have caught all of the rabbits, they
will be spayed or neutered and healthy before they
are released.
We are also looking for people to adopt these
rabbits. If you are interested please fill out an
adoption questionnaire, or email caroline@bunnybunch.org. Ideally
we would like to get them all into homes if
possible. We will have some of these rabbits for
adoption at the Orange County Pet Expo in April,
plus will be holding adoption events in Long Beach
after Easter.
 Thank you to Long Beach City College for providing
funding for spaying and neutering, and allowing us
to come up with a plan to take care of all the
rabbits. Also, for letting us use a building to
house the rabbits during this program. Thank you to
Best Friends for providing temporary crates for the
rabbits and sending supplies. Thank you to Western
University for offering low cost spay/neuter for 80
rabbits and caring for them after the surgery and to
the staff who donated their time. Thank you to the
local rabbit vets for proving low cost spay and
neuter. And a big thank you to Donna and Jackie who
work at LBCC for being there for the rabbits over
the years and through this rescue.
We have set up a fund to help with medical costs for
the sick and injured rabbits. Click
here to make a
donation, or you can send a check to The Bunny Bunch LBBC Rescue, P.O. Box 2583, Chino, CA 91708.
If you are interested in volunteering with this
project please email caroline@bunnybunch.org

Angel Bun Needs Your Help
3/6/2010
We got a call
from a vets office yesterday about a rabbit that was ran over by a car.
The rabbits leg was broken and the owners couldn't afford the bill and
didn't want to care for the rabbit. The rabbit is on the way to Bunny
Bunch. We need to raise $400 to have her leg spayed. We don't even know
her name yet. She is an older brown lop. If you can help send any amount
towards helping her please let us know.
As soon as we can we will post a pic of her on our site. You can donate
via Paypal or mail a check to The Burrow,
4601-1
Brooks St, Montclair, CA 91763. Thanks a Bunny Bunch!
Can You Help Valentine?
2/24/2010
 Valentine
is a dear little boy who is full of life and love despite his disability.
Unfortunately, Valentine fractured his back and his former owner took
him to a vet and left him there. Thank goodness, Bunny Bunch was called
and was able to take him in. We are currently looking into acupuncture
treatments and possibly chiropractor treatments from skilled animal
acupuncturists and chiropractors if we think it can help but we will
need to raise the money for the treatments because they can be costly
and visits need to be often. Any amount of support given will be greatly
appreciated. We hope to see Valentine hopping like a normal, healthy
bunny one day soon. With your help, that just might be possible. You
can donate via Paypal or mail a check to
The Burrow,
4601-1
Brooks St, Montclair, CA 91763. Thanks a Bunny Bunch!

Six rabbits
need your help!
2/18/2010

to all of you who donated! All these rabbits are safe now! Six rabbits
need to be rescued before time runs out from a city shelter. We are
full at the Burrow but do have some adoptions pending foster homes.
So, even if the rabbits could go into temporary foster that would help.
If you aren't
able to adopt or foster please consider donating to help pay to get
the rabbits out. $50 will rescue one rabbit. If you can help us save
them please call us right away (909) 631-9552 or (909) 626-3946. You
can donate via Paypal.
Seven Rabbits Need Help!
UPDATE-Thank
you to all who donated to help these rabbits. We were able to save every
one of them. You can come and visit them at the Burrow beginning 2/1/2010.
These are two of seven buns we need to rescue from a shelter. If you
can help by adopting or donating please let us know right away. A $50
donation will pay the fee for us to rescue a rabbit and keep him/her
at the Burrow until a forever home can be found. You can donate via
Paypal or call Caroline 909 631 9552.
Can You Help
Martin?
1/30/2010
Martin
update-A very caring rabbit veterinarian has offered to donate his services
for Martin's medical needs. So far he has been responding very well
to his medical treatments
Martin was found abandoned in Long Beach suffering
from a swollen jaw. He is in need of surgery and donations are needed
to cover his surgery costs. He is a sweet, affectionate bunny that loves
to be held. He will be available for adoption soon. You
can donate to help Martin via
Paypal or
call Caroline 909 631 9552.
