This is Sandy. Many of you will remember her from this album – https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.390651254349423.94266.118260898255128&type=3
Sandy is a 6 year old female rabbit who came to us in an appalling state. On arrival, her rear end was caked in feaces and it took me 45 minutes to clean her – her skin was red raw from being in contact with urine and feaces all the time. She had a severe mite infestation (now treated) and her tear ducts were blocked, causing her a lot of pain.

Sadly, she has some ongoing problems which new owners need to be aware of. She gets a very messy bottom and needs assistance with cleaning herself daily. We are hoping when she slims down she will be able to clean herself, but she will probably always need help regularly. She is very good when this needs to be done and doesn’t wriggle much at all.

She has had her tear ducts flushed, but as they were left in this state for so long, there is some permanent damage there. It is likely she will need them flushed again in the future.

Sandy has the sweetest nature you can imagine. She is very friendly and laid back. All she wants is a neutered male rabbit to live out the rest of her years with. I will be sad to see her go, she is such a wonderful girl.

Sandy has been vaccinated, spayed, wormed and seen by our vet.

There is a minimum adoption fee of £35 for Sandy.
