Clover is a neutered male and he needs a new home. If you can offer a suitable, permanent house bunny home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there. Here is what owner Rachel said:
“Clover is 10 months old and he has been neutered. All of his vaccinations are up to date, but he hasn’t been microchipped.
No health issues.
He hates being picked up, but he loves attention, he’ll happily come and sit next to you whilst you stroke him.
Litter trained apart from a few times he’s peed over the edge of the litter tray.
Clover is an indoor bunny & has only ever been indoors, he has a cage as a base only gets ‘locked’ in the cage when i’m hoovering because he likes to get in the way of the hoover.
I live in Calne.”
I received a really positive update from owner Laura yesterday, and I thought I would share it here - we all need some good news from time to time I feel! Laura said:
“Around a year ago you enabled us to adopt sweet piggy Otter and I just wanted to share with you that she is thriving and is dearly loved.
She lives with two other guinea pigs and they have a very happy life full of their favourite foods and endless love.There are so many sad stories in rescue but it’s important to know that you do a wonderful job and because of you putting us in touch with her previous owner (who was absolutely lovely btw), Otter landed with a family who adore her.
Thank you for what you do. “

Update: Nugget’s owner has now accepted a home offer, but if anything changes, I will put the update here.
Nugget is a neutered, vaccinated male just under 3 years old. He has recently been bereaved and his owner is not able to take on another rabbit so reluctantly wants to find a new home for him where he can bond with a neutered female. Owner Jackie has provided detailed info about him, so do please have a read before considering adoption. He is in Lyde Green, Bristol, South Gloucestershire
If you can offer a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there.
“ Nugget is currently fit and well, with no symptoms or known behavioural issues. His bonded companion recently became very unwell with suspected E. cuniculi, so on veterinary advice Nugget is completing a precautionary 28-day course of Panacur due to possible exposure. He remains completely symptom-free and his final dose is due on 26 September 2026.
Nugget currently lives in a 6ft × 4ft purpose-built bunny shed with a large attached Omlet Zippi run, connected tunnels and additional hideaway areas. He is a happy, inquisitive and active rabbit with lots of personality. He loves exploring and particularly enjoys jumping and climbing onto platforms and higher areas. He is used to people and has lived very happily bonded with a female rabbit, so he is accustomed to and enjoys rabbit companionship. He has also lived with a cat and a dog.
I have some equipment that I am willing to sell to the new owner if they would like it:
* Any equipment that can go with him:
* 6ft × 4ft purpose-built Bunny Shed
* Adjoining Runaround system, with multiple tunnels, sections and hideaways:
* Omlet Zippi secure run with platforms — 8ft × 39in
* Front wide mesh tunnel — 4ft × 1.4ft
* Rear high tunnel — 2ft × 1ft × 2ft
* Rear hideaway — 2 sections, approx. 4ft × 1ft”

This pair of neutered sisters are needing a new home - they are in Limply Stoke, Bath. Their owner Eloise has provided full details about them, so do have a read. If you can offer a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by DM (not comments please) and we will go from there. Eloise said:
”Their names are Beano (black with small white dot on nose) and Boosh (all black). Both female (litter sisters), born June 2021 and both neutered in Nov 2021
Neutered in Nov 2021. Their annual jabs are due in Sept so I’m taking them for those next week. Apart from that, all vacs are up to date.
Generally speaking in good health. Neither of them are on any meds. Boosh is losing a bit of hair from her back - we’ve had this treated and checked by the vet and they’ve examined under a microscope but couldn’t see any mites. It started last winter when there was a prolonged period of rain (so they didn’t really leave their hutch) and has improved over the summer months when they’ve been outside and had more space. Our theory is that either Boosh is doing it to herself or Beano is doing it to her - either way, I wonder if it’s a sign that they are possibly bored or underoccupied? (Admin edit - probably due to the sister mounting her)
They are kept outside in a hutch with an attached run and tunnels. They have been inside for short periods (eg following being neutered and when weather has been very cold) so they are used to it.
They have quite different personalities but get on well. Beano has always seemed a bit hormonal to me - she definitely gets quite antsy in the Spring, and when she was younger she would always be the one to dig. I always felt she wanted a more exciting life and found her sister a bit frustrating and dull at times? She often tries to mount Boosh - much more so when they were younger, but she still does it from time to time, especially if she’s excited or there’s interesting food around. I would say she is the dominant sister. Boosh is definitely more chilled out and placid, and is happy as long as there’s plenty of food. They are both friendly and interested in what’s going on but have become nervous around humans due to lack of regular interaction. They are happy to be hand fed or stroked but no longer keen on being picked up.
We have a double storey hutch but it’s now 5 years old and not in the best condition especially after a house move. We also have an Omlet rabbit run and some lengths of tunnel/tube that connects to the hutch. I would be happy for all of this to go with them. “

Cinnamon is a 5 year old Netherland Dwarf female from Malmesbury, and she needs a new home. She is fully vaccinated but not neutered, and in view of her age and dwarf breed, I would leave the discussion about whether to neuter her or not to the owner, new owner, and vet. If the decision is to go ahead, we will offer a grant of £80 towards her spay, payable to the vet that will carry out the procedure. This must be arranged in advance by the old and new owner to suit their location and vet preference.
If you can offer Cinnamon a suitable, permanent home, get in touch by DM (not comments please as I will respond quicker to DM’s) and we will go from there.
Her owner Dan said:
“She has no health or behavioural issues, and is a good natured, but timid bunny around people. She likes space to run around and is quite fast at top speed! She has lived in a pair, but her partner passed away a couple of months ago, so she is a bit shy at the moment and would like to live with another bunny if possible. Her hutch, feeding bowls, and whatever food and hay we have can go with her.”
