Pepper is doing well after her desexing op
Yesterday Pepper had her desexing operation at Riverbank Animal Hospital conducted by rabbit vet Dr Chris Gough in preparation for her journey to her new life in Sydney with Raj and Neha.
She is in a cosy recovery capsule sitting on vet fleece with a water bottle and Barastoc Rabbit Pellets. She is sitting still so that her wound will heal.
Her capsule is positioned so that she can view the other rabbits in the near vicinity especially Noddy who came up from Sydney all by himself to adopt her and take back to his family in Hurstville. They fly out on Friday this week with Coates Pet Transport.

Noddy the mini lop arrives to adopt a friend of his choice!
We welcomed Noddy to The Rabbit Sanctuary on Friday as we picked him up from his flight from Sydney. Thank you to Michelle from Coates Pet Transport for arranging his travel.
Noddy is visiting to choose a new friend to take back to his apartment in Hurstville in Sydney. Noddy's parents, Neha and Raj, were concerned that he was alone in the apartment during the day when they are working so they decided that they would adopt another rabbit friend for him. Noddy is a desexed male rabbit and since he arrived has soaked up the attention shown to him by his fellow rabbits in the sanctuary. See a photo of him as he disembarked from the plane in Grafton Airport which is just 20 minutes from The Rabbit Sanctuary.
Noddy is looking forward to being in the Australian Bush for a while, picking his own grass and meeting new friends.
During his stay at the Sanctuary, Noddy is booked in for nail clipping, a sudsy warm bath and a vet checkup.
Noddy is towel dried
He is wash in full sun to avoid a chill and towel dried in the sun. Then he hops around on a sunny grassy spot in a hutch cage to further dry out. Later he is finished off with a gentle relaxing blow dry.

Rabbit Found in Willoughby in Sydney's North Shore
Phone June: 02 9419 6617 to enquire about this big rabbit that has moved into June's backyard in Willoughby near Chatswood in North Sydney. He is cream in colour with pale fawn markings and a pale fawn stripe down his back.
If you would like to adopt this rabbit. June currently has him in a cocky cage which can't be his home for long. She would love enquiry from people interested in taking him on a permanent or even a foster basis because she is not set up for keeping a rabbit. She just saved him from the dangers of being free in her area where there are lots of feral cats and lots of dogs that would kill him if he were to hop into their backyard.

A question for The Rabbit Sanctuary!
Today we received an interesting question from Robert who is considering surrendering her rabbit to the Rabbit Sanctuary. Here is the question and my answer:
Robert's question:
Dear Kim
What has driven you to create this sanctuary ? and what would a rabbits day look like in your care?
Kim's Answer:
Hi Robert,
Thank you for your questions. I will try to answer...
My husband and I set up and run the sanctuary on our rural bush property. We are in semi retirement and wanted to do something for rabbits because we love them and because there is so little help for them. We began by helping one rabbit which led to two etc. and we saw this huge need for a sanctuary to help people like you who are desperate to find their rabbit a safe loving and comfortable environment when they can no longer care for them. The reasons that people can no longer care for their rabbit are many and varied.
We have many long term or life long rabbit residents in the sanctuary. Some people don't want their rabbits rehomed and so they live their lives in the sanctuary.
We have a very good rehoming rate too. We only let rabbits go to new homes if they are very good homes with the right equipment and care plan.
Rehomed rabbits are always welcome back and we stress that to those that adopt them. That way the rabbit is assured of ongoing care.
A rabbit's day in the sanctuary consists of:
Crack of dawn running and playing
Breakfast of pellets
Water change
Watching people put rocks into freshly dug or too deep rabbit holes
Morning tea treat of carrot or other treat such as 1/4 slice of bread each or a couple of salted peanuts or sultanas each etc.
Siesta
Afternoon tea of fresh hay
Evening top up of waters and pellets
Dusk running and playing on into the night if the moon is out!
All male rabbits are kept in lawn hutches until desexed at which time they go into the big rabbit run with females and desexed males.
New rabbits are in quarantine hutches on our back verandah until they are vaccinated and it takes effect.
Our local vet sees the sanctuary rabbits at no cost and is available 7 days a week and nights, so vet care is always available for sanctuary rabbits.
I hope that answers your questions:)

Promotional Rabbit Stand at Street Party Near The Rabbit Sanctuary
The Rabbit Sanctuary had a huge crowd at their promotional stand at the commercial street party held recently in South Grafton NSW which is near to The Rabbit Sanctuary. We were able to talk to people about rabbit care and hand out our care sheets and contact details. Many people commented that they had learned important information about rabbits from our volunteers on the day.
 |
| The crowds loved the bunnies. Children patted the rabbits and learned about rabbit care. |
Congratulations to Norman for helping a rabbit!
 |
| A Rabbit On The Hop! Thank you Norman for saving him! |
Finally that little bunny is safely in his new house away from roaming dogs and cats or the risk of being run over by a car. Good on you Norman! Keep in touch.

Weekend Wabbit Workathon at The Rabbit Sanctuary!
A big thank you to Brendan, Jackie and Solomon for the wonderful work they did at The Rabbit Sanctuary on the weekend! Solomon was excellent on the mini tractor and Brendan on the shovel! Jackie deserves thank you's from many many rabbits for the wonderful work she did at Casuarina saving many rabbits and educating the public about their plight in the park where people had been releasing domestic rabbits.
Rabbit Adoptions are Soaring High at The Rabbit Sanctuary! See photos of people and the rabbit they adopted!
 |
| Emma adopted our rare Jersey Wooly rabbit having driven all the way from Macksville around 2.5 hours to pick him up. She loves "Wooly" and she also brought her own Angora girl with her and dropped her to the Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary vet in Grafton to have her desexed while she came out to the Sanctuary. Emma left with Wooly and a voucher for a free vet check from our vet Dr Chris Gough. Wooly's adoption fee was $25 and he came with so much added value. It pays to adopt a rabbit rather than to buy one from a breeder or a pet shop. |
 |
| Little girl goes home happily with her two adopted pet rabbits. She adopted her favourites from the big Rabbit Run - a ginger and white boy and a grey boy. Both are desexed males that have been vaccinated, wormed and mite treated. He father built a great run with cosy rabbit house. They will also have a wire playpen in the house so they can be part of daily family life. These two special tame rabbits will be loved pets in Bangalow Northern NSW. |

Fresh Water for your Rabbits and You too!
Rabbits need the freshest of water.
Not many people realise that rabbits also need to do more than likc water drops from a 'drinker'.
Drinkers are good for certain things e.g. in a carry cage where a bowl would spill and also take up a lot of space.
When in their normal day hutch etc the rabbit should be given a heavy ceramic bowl that he or she can't tip over and that can be used to dip the paws and wash the face and best of all LAP UP THE WATER:)
Water filters are recommended for your rabbit's water. The quality of water in Australia is rapidly decreasing. Pollution, chemicals, old piping in the reservoirs, sediments and bacteria that exist in a lot of our municipal reservoirs, are some of the alarming issues that create a need for a water filter in Australia. Bacteria in our water are one of the most common causes of sickness and the common flu. Water Filters are far more environmentally friendly and economically viable than bottled water. One litre of drinking water from a Pure Water, water filter proves to be much more economical, costing on average 0.9 cents.

Best Rabbit Nail Clippers
Click on link above to see and buy them.
We have used these particular rabbit nail clippers for years. They are the easiest to use and the safest around. Always hold the nail to the light before clipping the tips. You have to be able to see the 'quick' or meaty part under the actual nail so you don't cut that! If you do cause bleeding, clamp the nail firmly with your fingers to stop bleeding.

Cruelty Free Buying - Read about products you can buy that don't hurt animals!
Here is a little news from our supporters at the Cruelty Free Shop
Congratulations to them on being nominated as a finalist in the Home-Based Business Awards!

Disaster strikes! Last week I dropped my laptop, smashed the screen and destroyed my hard disk losing all my data including the draft of this month’s newsletter (so it’s a bit shorter than usual). I’ve also lost all my emails so if you are waiting on a reply from me I'm not ignoring you! Please send me your email again.

Fortunately a couple of very nice things happened this month to balance things out. First we received a lovely framed certificate of appreciation from PETA for our “work to help stop the suffering of animals by making cruelty-free products available Australia-wide”. Then we were chosen as a finalist in the Australian Home-Based Business Awards which is open to all home business in Australia. We didn't win but were competing against lots of well known, non-vegan businesses so we were very excited to have even made it to the finals.
New Products
Mary’s Gone Crackers Cookies are vegan, gluten-free, organic, non-GMO and contain no hydrogenated oils or trans-fats. They contain lots of healthy ingredients like Chia seeds and come in two yummy flavours: Chocolate Chip and Ginger Snap. Mary’s cookies usually retail for over $9.50 a box but we have been able to get our hands on a stack of them at almost half price and they will be available at this price for a short time only so if you like them, now is a good time to stock up.
Rendang Curry Sauce
One of our best selling products is Lamyong’s Rendang Curry meal with mock meat chunks. Now you can create your own rendang curry using the very same sauce. Lamyong’s Rendang curry sauce in a jar is the perfect base for a firey and delicious Malaysian curry that is not for the faint-hearted.

Organic Cotton Buds
Did you know that 25% of all insecticides are used in the growth of conventional cotton? This results in devastating side-effects on the environment and wildlife. Simply Gentle’s cotton buds are made with 100% organic cotton so are kind to the environment and you.

Charity of the Month (continued from July)
Little is known of Candice’s history, she clearly likes being around people so must have lived with a family at some stage but, perhaps through abandonment, she ended up living rough on the streets. When Candice was found she was emaciated, she clearly hadn’t eaten for a long time and was giving all the goodness from her body to keep her kitten alive. Luckily they were both taken to Ingrid’s Haven where she will receive the love and attention and vet care that she will need to regain her strength. Her kitten has found a new home and, when Candice she is strong enough, Ingrid will try to find someone to adopt her too.

Ingrid's Haven is a non-profit, no-kill cat shelter in Victoria. All the cats at Ingrid’s have been rescued from death row at the pound or abusive or neglectful situations. They are cared for, de-sexed and provided with vet care until new loving homes can be found. P roviding care for all the rescued cats is an expensive business so please consider adding a donation towards Candice’s care to your next Cruelty Free Shop order.

Quote of the Month
"To my mind the life of a lamb is no less precious than that of a human being. I should be unwilling to take the life of a lamb for the sake of the human body. I hold that, the more helpless a creature, the more entitled it is to the protection by man from the cruelty of man." Mahatma Ghandi
