Fundraiser for Little Bronwyn

Her tiny head invaded by painful abscess - but treating poor BRONWYN's persistent infection is showing progress -- please visit BWF PayPal: BUNNYWORLDFOUNDATION.ORG/DONATE

with any amount to make possible her full recovery, and help reduce our $17K+ Northwood Vet bill (SEE INVOICE).

Direct Donations to Northwood Animal Hospital of $100 or more - please call 949-559-1992

BWF is sensitive to what we're all enduring, and we've tried to inspire hope through our good news posts... but we can't forget harmless, helpless victims of cruelty -- so our rescuing has not stopped, and the END-OF-MONTH INSTALLMENT toward Vet bills for numerous recent medical cases - including Bronywn - is due now.

Bronwyn's post-op care is delicate and extensive. Below are medications Bronwyn receives to recover from her surgery and infection:

•Warm compress on eye/face to keep drain open
•Saline flush - (watch video) - to clean out pus
•Azithromycin - 2 cc once a day
•Ofloxacin eye drops 1-2 drops in right eye every 8-12 hrs
•Enrofloxacin - 0.21 ML every 12 hrs until resolved
•Gabapentin - 0.4 ML every 12 hrs for pain 
•Metacam - 0.5 ML every 12 hrs for pain/inflammation

Bronwyn will have follow-up exams and treatment until fully recovered and happy... at which point, she will need her life to start anew in a forever home and lifelong TLC. Email us to meet her.

Thank you for extending a little generosity for the ill and injured, downtrodden bunnies desperately awaiting help.

"Safer at Home" and BWF

 

All of us at BWF hope this finds you safe and well. While we abide by Social Distancing and California's statewide "Safer at Home"  ordinances, WE REMAIN FULL-FORCE in our ESSENTIAL mission of rescue & rehabilitation of neglected, abused, ill, injured, and abandoned domestic rabbits.
We don't need Adoption Events to place desperate bunnies with Fosters & Adopters. All we need are the compassionate humans to step-up, and we'll make the life-saving happen -- no matter what. The poor bunnies won't be forgotten... they are waiting in pain and fear... and they matter!
Alongside our despair over how cruelly bunnies are regarded and treated, we have been truly inspired by the women and men whose willingness to help the poor bunnies has pierced the darkness with their mercy, unconditional love, and light.
We have not slowed down, and have no plans to do so. We have always rolled with the punches, and now is no different. As we always say -- "Where there's a will, there's a bunny" -- and we are a community of WILLFUL BUNNY LOVERS who won't be stopped.
Thank you to the many who inspire us to keep marching on -- armed only with compassion, kindness, and the desire to help the forgotten... we sincerely hope we can inspire the same in others.
With love and gratitude, be safe... be kind... be well.
-BWF

Molar Spurs

Inseparable cuties, Feather & Bitsy are among countless darling buns who require regular incisor & molar trims. We rescued these BFFs from a high-kill shelter, and they remind us to have bunnies' molars checked regularly.

Like their nails, bunnies' teeth never stop growing; this issue is more problematic in some bunnies than in others. And while incisor overgrowth is more easily detected and treated, neglected molar spurs -- and the resulting gum & tongue injuries often leading to jaw abscess -- contribute in high numbers to bunny weight loss, illness, dreaded G.I. Stasis, and avoidable fatalities. 

In bunnies experiencing change in appetite, weight loss, or displaying unusual mouth movements while away from eating, molar spurs are a possible culprit. Along with a complete examination for that urgency, a rabbit-savvy Vet should be able to perform a proper molar exam, identify molar spurs, and safely resolve the issue.

Regular Vet check-ups are a must with bunnies throughout their lives; especially since age-related changes in bunnies require us to keep tabs on their organ function, as well as possible pain-management for bunnies diagnosed with arthritis, etc..

Fecal and blood exams are worth the cost when required to identify illness, or update wellness to prevent maladies suffered by aging bunnies.

To avoid dire health risks such as ovarian tumors, to quell destructive hormonal behaviors -- and for obvious ethical reasons -- all domestic rabbits require proper spay or neuter procedures. 

While unlimited fresh Timothy hay -- and water in bowls, never bottles -- are adult bunnies' best defense against gut-related illness, hay alone is not enough to guarantee their molars will avoid developing dangerous spurs.

Thank you for keeping your bunnies' teeth in mind; molars effect all areas of bunny health.

Bitsy & Feather are adoptable, and will need soft blankets and regular dental maintenance.

#LeaveBunniesOutOfEaster

BLUE is asking us to spread the word for all to have mercy and abstain from buying animals. Breeding, buying, selling, giving away bunnies is the ENTIRE cause of their species' misery. The exploitation hurts them all, thank you for refusing to hurt them.

Adjust your vision: #BabyBunnies are a RED FLAG of exploitation or irresponsibly allowing bunny pregnancies. IT MUST STOP. If you have bunnies who have not been spayed / neutered, please contact to help you find a proper Vet for that most vital action of love.

Domestic rabbits are suffering and homeless worldwide in numbers too high to calculate. Adopt or Foster, but we must all take pity and not worsen their plight by supporting their abusers who breed & sell them. #BuyAToyNotALife.

Serious adopters needed. If your priority is to learn and help, not hurt these poor souls, please email us: info@bunnyworldfoundation.org#LetRescuedBeYourFavoriteBreed

Thank you.
