Ffs, what is wrong with these people?!

I wish I could help but I'm hundreds of miles away

I know, I'm about 150 miles away so not much use for bunnies that wouldn't be likely to travel well.

There was a similar situation near here recently and she started out as a rescue but let males and females out together

The mind boggles

Bring in pet licences I say! I'd be more than happy to pay it if it would stop these people doing these things.

Any chance of transport runs to other areas of the country?

We are on holiday from next week otherwise we might have been able to fit a couple in temporarily if they came with hutches

I just hope the rescues do their usual sterling job of pulling together for these guys

totally agree i'm amazed at how poorly some pets are kept it's apalling.
wish i could help but don't have any more room

Oh dear

I hope that these poor bunnies can be helped.

I suppose that would depend on the health of the rabbits. I *think* it's intended as a nationwide appeal.

If you were to let Walsall RSPCA know of any spaces elsewhere in the country I'm sure transport runs could be arranged if they know they have spaces lined up.

Oh I feel so helpless but I just have no space. I'm not even that far from Walsall either which only makes me feel even worse

Does anyone know what the current situation is now?

They did get them all out... all 54 of them Rescue spaces had been secured for the vast majority when I read the update yesterday evening. One of them had teeth practically growing up her nose

Well done to all those who helped. Do you know which rescues have taken some, then if anyone is able to make a donation they can...

I shall ask Vicky and Becky who co-ordinated it and report back

Edit to add: Two are on their way to

http://www.rainbowrabbits.co.uk/

One has a deformed leg and the other has severe dental problems

I don't know about others yet but will update when I know anything.

Oh thank goodness they're out of that terrible situation. Those poor, poor bunnies. I hope they are able to make full recoveries

This is information copied with permission from Rainbow Rabbits re the Telford bunnies that have gone there.

This is Bunita Sunshine. She is the bunny with severe dental problems, Her incisors have been clipped now and she is munching away on hay. But they will need removing and she needs a dental on her molars. I can also feel a lump in her jaw




This is the tiniest sweetest rabbit ever, now named Victoria Twinkle Toes She has deformed front feet and a rattly chest with runny eye She must have been the runt of the litter as I have never seen such a tiny rex. Our little sienna (rex) is small but no where near as small as this!



Bunita is only a small rabbit herself so you can see how tiny little Twinkle is. They saw the RSPCA vet yesterday who unfortunately vaccinated them! So they are having a few days rest before seeing our vet in Thursday for complete health checks. But it is obvious they are going to need a lot of treatment





Other rabbits have gone to Blue Cross and BARC (ie Bunnymadhouse has got a very lovely lionhead from there whom no doubt she will be showing you soon.)

so donations should be made to Barc? Do you know which blue cross? That way I can send a parcel?

I don't know yet unfortunately. I'm trying to find out. I'm sure BARC and Rainbow Rabbits would appreciate donations but not sure yet who else has taken the bunnies. I will update when I can.

so glad they are rescued

Thank goodness they are safe. Such beautiful bunnies too.

It is so sad

Thanks for the info

We know of RR as we keep up with Trevor's progress on FB, and of course BARC are 'local'. I'll raid Humum's bank account and send something to help

Excellent. Have you seen the video of Trevor in her cart? She is one amazing bunny

I have, and the things those guys do for some really poorly bunnies are amazing

I am so glad they have found homes; things like that this really infuriate me.
