Great Lakes Rabbit Sanctuary

Monday, January 5th, 2009

The Great Lakes Rabbit Sanctuary in Willis, Michigan is the largest rabbit rescue in the US, housing 550 rabbits. You can read more about the sanctuary in an earlier Rabbit Rescue Spotlight post on our bunny blog or at the Great Lakes Rabbit Sanctuary website.

I love seeing photos of the place with all the permanent residents hopping around in their fenced-in rabbit pastures.  Here is a recent photo from The Ann Arbor News. Celeste Defellici had called out “TREATS!” and all the bunnies came running.

Vincent: The Rabbit with No Ears

Monday, December 22nd, 2008

Earless bunny

Named for Vincent van Gogh, who famously chopped off his own ear, Vincent the bunny was born without any ears.

His owner, 16-year-old John Haigh from North Yorkshire, England, had first discovered the earless bunny among a litter of 10 bunnies. All of Vincent’s siblings were born with ears.

Rabbit and Rhino

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

A wild rabbit has grown bold and has begun venturing into the rhino habitat at the Taronga Western Plains Zoo in New South Wales, Australia (400 km northwest of Sydney).  The rabbit, called Robby, waits for the rhinos to eat their fill and then eats the seeds.

Rabbit Fosterer Donates Prize Money to Rabbit Rescue

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Ray Milkey of Los Altos, CA won $1000 when the photo he entered of his two foster bunnies was chosen as the best entry for PetSource.org’s “Cutest Baby Pet” contest. He has generously opted to give the prize money to The Rabbit Haven, the shelter where the two baby dwarf hotot rabbits, Lassen and Denali, came from. Due to the popularity of the contest, Lassen has already been adopted, and with any luck, Denali will find a forever home soon too.

Photos of Coco & Cosette

Monday, February 4th, 2008

Here are some photos of the bunnies lounging today. Both have funny places where they like to sleep. For example, when they are not under the coffee table, Coco will lie down on a plastic pet food tray, and Cosette will rest near the elliptical trainer, sometimes under the pedal.
