Re: Can anyone help? URGENT!!!!!!!!

Hello everybody

I have just joined your forum today because I am a member of RU and am trying to coordinate any offers of help to either transport or rehome the rabbits in the situation near Lymington.

FOR ANYONE OFFERING A RESCUE PLACE OR PLACES PLEASE READ (taken from the RU thread)

"It's nice that so many people that are private individuals want to help here so can I make a suggestion?

If you are a private person who would be able to foster for a rescue, then could you possibly approach your nearest rabbit friendly rescue (so many of them don't ever come on here so won't know about this) to tell them what is happening and ask if they would support you if you foster? Unless you are able to take in, care for, neuter and vaccinate at your own expense, sadly I think your offers will be unuseable unless you can find a rescue to support you.

I have contacted a couple of rescues who don't come on here and so far neither think that they can help with rescue places.

If a rescue near to you that rescues rabbits is able to help, maybe you could supply the details of the person who has agreed to help and pass them on when more is known about what will ultimately happen with the rabbits. Please don't post the contact details on here unless they are publically known anyway.

BUT, we will have to wait and see what happens with this in the next couple of days"

and

"So I am thinking, that if anyone can help with A RESCUE PLACE ONLY (if you can foster for a rescue that has agreed to pay/support and rehome the rabbits), or if you are a private individual that is prepared to take on a rabbit/some rabbits (at your own risk and expense), and adopt them or rehome them yourselves please can you e-mail me the following:

Your RU name, your proper name, your address, your phone number and exactly what you can offer.

If this is for a rescue, please give the name and contact details of the rescue offering the support/placement and when the place would be available from.

FOR THOSE OFFERING BUNNY RUNS, SAME THING APPLIES, PLEASE TELL US WHAT YOU CAN OFFER, WHEN AND WHAT AREA YOU ARE PREPARED TO COVER.

As yet, it is not clear if we will be taking any rabbits out of this situation so please keep checking back on here.

PLEASE DO NOT PM ME, ONLY USE therabbitcrossing@yahoo.co.uk. You may not recieve an immediate response and may only hear something when we know more about the bigger picture.

The offers of help for guinea pig placements are being coordinated by Anna at Wheek and Squeek Rescue in Southampton so any contact would ideally be made directly with her.

Thank you.

Re: Can anyone help? URGENT!!!!!!!!

Was at the local RSPCA on Sat and they were virtually empty in the rabbits and didnt have ANY guineas in! I am working all day thru to thurs and cant contact them(I am at work for all of their opening hours!) but heres their contact details if anyone wants to try them. The lady who deals with small animals is Julie(she is lovely and if she is allowed to help, she will!)

R S P C A, Block Fen Animal Centre
Block Fen Drove
Wimblington

Contact details:
0300 123 0726
bfasm@rspca.org.uk

Sorry I cant contact them myself, I just work the wrong times!

Oh, and according to Julie, Woodgreen at Godmanchester have very few piggies in aswell. They dont have a huge ammount of space for rabbits, but worth a phone call maybe.

Thank you Heidi.

All the rabbits (68 of them) were taken out today and now have places in rescue or in private homes.

Good job all involved and a massive thank you to all who offered support.

Helen

Well done to everyone envolved! What a great bunch of people you all are? Now I wonder how many pregnancies and therefore babies there will be?
