rescuing buns

[LittleLionLover]

i am looking for a lionhead and i really wanted to rescue one but the closest rescue i found on petfinder is hours away. what process can i go through to get a rescue to me?

 

[slavetoabunny]

Could you tell us where you are located?

 

[LittleLionLover]

toledo, ohio. thanks to anyone that can help

Check craigslist as well.

I would check with the rescue that has the lionhead. I know rescues will set up transportation once the adoption application has been approved. I'm assuming that the lionhead is with the Columbus HRS.

The closest on Petfinder is Westland, Michigan. That doesn't look like too far of a drive. Other than that, there are some in Plymouth. Here are some lionheads in Westland, MI!

I highly recommend adopting from Midwest Rabbit Rescue in Plymouth, MI. Look at this gorgeous bonded pair they have:

They aren't too far away from you.

You should totally adopt that rabbit it's so cute.

You would have a lot of trouble getting the rabbit transported to Ohio unless you were willing to pay to have it flown. The rescue I volunteer for (Gainesville Rabbit Rescue) will adopt out of state if the adopter can arrange transportation.

Well first you need to ring them and organize something then.

What I meant was ring the shelter, and ask them can they help you with the transport.

The rabbit in the picture you posted is at the Surrey, British Columbia SPCA. Are you asking for someone here at ROto pick up the rabbit and deliver it to you 2,500 miles away in Toledo, Ohio? Or are you asking for the shelter to arrange transportation to you?

If you want, I'll be happy to go get him for you but I need the $3,200 air fare up front from you plus the adoption fee and enough to spend a night and have meals in a Surrey hotel. $3,700 or 3,800 should cover it all. You can send me the money in cash (US dollars) or a certified bank check. Let me know when you're ready for delivery and we will finalize plans.

A little harsh Ann, but very accurate.

LittleLionLover - You live in a literal "hot bed" of rabbit rescue. Please do some research on state-wide rescues. I can assure you that there is more than one lionhead within driving distance of you. Did you check Midwest?

 

[seniorcats]

Well darn Slavetoabunny, if Ican get a trip to Surrey, not only can I pick up the rabbit but I can visit a bunch of RO members! I was thinkin' of a day trip to Vancouver to see Pipp.

Forgot to add - Happy New Year!

no need to be smart alike. I was just trying to help a helpless bun.

LOL, we are a bunch of smart-alec's here. Just our strange sense of humor - no offense intended! Believe me, we are very happy you are trying to help out the buns.
