Dusty (Jasper's little wifey) has now come indoors so that we can make sure she is ok and not lonely. She seems very quiet at the moment and we have given her a cuddly toy which sometimes helps. She has been washing it. Our plan is to find her another friend and hopefully in time she will accept a new partner. Rabbits do tend to bond for life and do not always re bond but its is always worth trying as sometime rabbits do display symptoms of stress and can even get depressed. We thought we would show you a picture of her with Jasper as well as a current photo.

Donny & Fern
Donny & Fern are two beautiful little Dutch rabbits who have come to stay with us for the weekend whilst their owners are off down to Cornwall to see their family. The bunnies used to go with them but its now easier to drop them off with us and also saves them the stress of the journey. Both rabbits are indoor buns and we have now set up one of our bedrooms as an area for indoor bunnies so means if a rabbit comes to board on its own they will always have some company.
Timmy Gin
Timmy Gin has been back staying with us this week and looks very well, he has lost a little bit of weight and seems to completely got over his problem with his nose. However, Timmy has been told by his vet not to eat hay as pieces keep getting stuck up his nose which causes an infection. As with rabbits its its very important for guinea pigs to chew hay as this naturally keeps their teeth from over-growing and therefore we have given him some dried grass with dandelions and marigold which he seems to love. Timmy goes home tomorrow and I am sure he is looking forward to seeing his family.

Bigwig is Back
Jemima
Jemima went home yesterday, all the way back to Leeds! Yes we had the pleasure of taking care of her whilst her owners were away in America. Jemima had EC and needed special care. Our services were required and hence the reason for the long trip to Gloucestershire. We are pleased to say she went home feeling much better and we look forward to hearing how she is doing.
Sammy & Mindy
Jack
Jack is staying with us this week and seems quite settled but we think he is mssing his friend Tilly who sadly died a short while ago. He has made friends with Sammy & Mindy who are being fostered by his owners, Chris & Sally but Sammy is not that happy about it all. We are trying to give Jack lots of fuss to ensure he does not get too lonely.
