Valentine's Day Gifts: Give perfume not a rabbit

Rabbits don't make good Valentine's Day gifts. Try giving a designer perfume or fragrance to your loved one instead.  When rabbits are given as a gift the recipient might get a surprise but won't be prepared for the rabbit and know about rabbits and how to care for them. They may tire of the rabbit quickly and then the rabbit ends up at the mercy of the welfare system.  Quite often this means the rabbit will die.  Surely you don't want a Valentine's gift to be a gift of cruelty to animals. Give perfume instead!

After Valentine's Day note...

Well we had only one enquiry for rabbits for Valentine's Day.  It was from a woman with a shop who wanted some to add to her shop window display. We said NO.  

Henry Mini Lop off to NZ

This is a photo of Henry Mini Lop who was adopted from the Rabbit Rescue Sanctuary 3 years ago. Since then he has lived as a much loved house rabbit.

He has returned to wait for his turn to sail or fly to New Zealand with his adopted parents Tino and Ami who are embarking on an exciting life changing journey.

Tino has purchased a yacht to sail to NZ. It is his first sail so he will make sure all works out then return for Henry. If Tino thinks the journey by sea would be uncomfortable for Henry or that quarantine procedures would be more difficult then they will fly Henry over via pet transport.

LISMORE, Monday.

Workmen engaged in digging gravel at North Lismore inside the municipal boundary this afternoon captured three rabbits.  The discovery occasioned considerable surprise locally, as it had been thought that rabbits would not exist on the North Coast owing to the climate and the nature of the soil.

We just through we would share this snippet about rabbits from the past with you.
