This neutered brother/sister pair are in Bridgwater, Somerset, and they need a new home. Their owner is willing to travel a reasonable distance to take them to the right home. As they have long fur, an experienced home will be best as they will need regularly grooming and trimming to keep their fur in check. If the new owner would like to bring them to me initially I can give them a thorough groom to get them started, but this will need to be maintained very regularly so you would need to be confident in handling rabbits. They need vaccinating, so CottonTails will give £50 towards each vaccination, payable to the vet who will carry out the procedure. This must be paid in advance, and would be arranged by the new owner to take into consideration vet preference and location. If you can offer them a suitable, permanent home where they will have lots of room to run around safely, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there. Their owner Sara has said:“Ashleigh and Olaf are brother and sister, born 4th June 2021 so they will be 5 years old this year. Both have been neutered and last had injections 2023. They live outside in half a converted shed and are allowed to free roam during the day and go to bed at night. Due to their long fur they do need regularly grooming and clipping especially around Olaf’s bottom, he doesn’t seem to mind this and is ok with the clippers but you need someone to cradle him while you do it. They don’t like being caught but once you cuddle them in they are fine. They will happily hop up if you are in the garden especially with a treat! I live in Somerset but would be happy to deliver just to have them rehome with someone who has more time for them. They live in a shed so I don’t have any equipment that can go with them.” ...

We are quiet on the rehoming front currently, but I know I will soon be inundated with rehome requests once the weather really turns wintery. In the meantime, I have been spending a bit of time trying to improve the mobile version of the CottonTails website () I want it to be a really useful user-friendly resource centre where owners and potential owners can look up topics with ease and (hopefully) find the answers to their questions. Here is where you step in! I am looking for a few willing volunteers to go on their phones, iPads etc and have a look at the website, and get back to me with constructive views of what works well and what could be improved. The desktop version generally works well, although the link between the Facebook page and website regarding animals available has been very unreliable due to a fault at the FB end, so this is something we are aware of and are actively trying to find a solution. This applies to the mobile version too. Your constructive ideas and thoughts would be very much appreciated, and also if you can think of any new related topics, let’s have those ideas too. No organisation can stand still in today’s world, and CottonTails is no exception. Together we can make this a great information resource that we can all be proud of 😊 ... See MoreSee Less
