Rabbitat Roof Collapse - NE Ohio !!

Rabbits in need of homes/rescue !!

As many of you know, five years ago my husband and I built a 1300 sq. ft. rabbitat to care for a large group of rabbits who had been dumped in California.

Unfortunately, the other night in the ice storm, the roof collapsed. We were incredibly lucky that only one rabbit waskilled in the disaster (I'd just taken out four fresh bales of hay and they stopped the beams from hitting the ground -- the one rabbit who was killed was on a bale of hay). Everyone is safely inside the house now, but I don't have a long term solution for keeping them here (and the short term one is about to kill me). I need to find rescues or homes for some of these guys, desperately.

The ideal situation would be to find a new rabbitat-type-situation for them to go to, they are used to having room to run, and being able to live a very rabbity life(they are, of course, spayed/neutered). But most if not all could be happy living inside with human friends, too. Some are extremely friendly.

If rescues could step up and take a group, I'd be eternally grateful (and the bunnies would too). But I'm also looking for good adoptive homes. Even temporary fosters would help me out. Please spread the word. Rabbits make great companions and are not hard to care for -- they can even be litter box trained!
Most everyone's life would be improved by a rabbit.

The rabbits are in NE Ohio but transport can be arranged to other areas.

Zooh Corner Rabbit Rescue (CA) needs your help

Zooh Corner Rabbit Rescue has been notified by the leadership of the San Gabriel Valley Humane Society of their intention to reclaim use of the space currently occupied by the shelter rabbits to create a new animal intake area. WE MUST VACATE OUR AREA AT THE SHELTER AND HAVE ALL THE RABBITS RELOCATED BY MAY 31, 2011. After May 31, the shelter will focus exclusively on housing and adopting out dogs and cats. While they will continue to accept rabbits surrendered to the shelter or picked up as strays, they will no longer house rabbits on their property. We have verbal confirmation that rabbits will have a maximum three-day holding period before being euthanized.

Our top priority is to find safe placements for the rabbits currently at the shelter, as well as any additional rabbits taken in before May 31. After that date, it will be our direct goal to help get every rabbit that comes in to this shelter OUT of the shelter before the holding period expires. We are working to develop a network of rescues and additional foster homes to help us ensure the safety and well-being of all rabbits taken into this shelter both now and in the future.

We can make this happen, but we need your help, and TIME IS RUNNING OUT! We are seeking foster and forever homes; transporters willing to drive or fly rabbits to other rescues, sanctuaries, or more distant forever-homes; and volunteers to help expand our outreach and education efforts.

For more information or if you can help in any way, please contact Zooh Corner President Cat (Alexandra) Logsdon at zoohgirl @ gmail.com (remove the spaces).

Thank you for your continued support!
