SO John, Zander, and I went to Illinois yest. We decided to take Jay Jay to No Splitting Hares Rescue. I was impressed with the owner Lisa over the phone so we made the long trip down there.

I knew i made the right decision yest. morning when John went to place Jay Jay in the carrier and he was biting him. I know Jay Jay is in good hands and I am grateful for the help, Lisa gave us.

In return I donated a lot of things to her rescue along with a monetary donation. I also wanted to take the advice of (I think SAS) to do a trade. Lisa has a lot of rabbits that need homes, and adding one more would still be added work for her, especially one that needs more time to manage.

The rescue is a 2 story farm home and it is completely devoted to bunnys. If I had to guess she probably has 100. So after a long time of crying and debating we decided to adopt an older girl (no name) I have no idea how old she is, or what her breed is. she needs some weight to b put on her and only was at the rescue about 2 weeks and has come along way since she has gotten there (weight wise I mean) She does have an ear tattoo so that leads me to belive she might be purebred. I could be wrong tho.

We decided to name her Rose and I weighed her this morning and she is 6.6lbs but u can feel her bones and u can see a lot of places that look like they need to b filled out.

WOW!!!!!!!!! I am so impressed that you travelled all
that distance to take care of him properly. You are a wonderful bunny owner. :highfive:

I have heard of that rescue asI am originally from the Chicagoland area and have friends there.I know that it is a new rescue.

Your girl is gorgeous !


Pat yourself on the back for handling that situation very well.

:hug:

Thanks Maureen!! Yes Lisa said she has only been doing this for a year. She seems like she has her act together...she has non profit forms, and what ever else u need to run a rescue. She has many many volunteers to help.

I thought it was ironic she did daycare foe 7 years b4 the rescue

 

[Maureen Las]

Which is more difficult daycare or 100 rabbits LOL ?

 

[Fancy77]

HMMMM...thats a toss up lol either way u r still cleaning up poop ha ha ha

You are an awesome bun-mom, Denise. You did it up for Jay Jay 110%, and opened your home to another bunny in need!

Kudos to you on doing the perfect thing for everyone... Jay Jay, you, your family, Lisa, and Rose. I couldn't be happier!

It sounds to me like you took lemons...and made lemonade.

Everyone got the best deal all around - Jay Jay may be able to get some help and this new girl has a great home.

Hats off to you....

I'm glad this all worked out! What you did was the responsible thing given your situation. You made sure Jay Jay would go to a safe place and did more than most to help him and this rescue out. Rose is an absolute beauty! Congrats on the new addition. :hug:

 

[Runestonez]

Sorry you couldn't work out the issues with Jay Jay...
but you tried...and thats all you can do!

Maybe he is just a one bunn type of bunn!
It is good you were able to help another bunn too!
she is beautiful!

Thank You every one for your support and very kind words. TBH I was reluctant at first to start this thread cuz I was very worried about how u all would respond, I thought it would b one of negativity. But I am blown away at your advice, support and positivity. It makes me feel very happy to a member of this forum.

ETA: I will keep posting pics on my blog....:biggrin2:

Hi Denise: I just came across this thread (a couple of months old) and as the shelter I volunteer at just posted that they received yet another "very aggressive" bun I was curious to see whats going on with you and your situation and what you have found that may have worked for you.

I believe its all about patience and standing your ground, but would again, love to here how its going.

I am sure as u have read on this thread I was too scared to give him the time. and took him to a rescue. He is doing well there and in very capable hands. If i didnt answer your question or if you have more feel free to PM me. THX
