    Is the rescuing of stray rabbits allowed?

    Byreneyw January 24, 2023March 23, 2023

    Yes. They are not protected by the law as they are not classified as wildlife, so it is not illegal. If they are on the pavement, where they should not be, we can rescue them because they are seen as strays It is normally residents who call us out to come and help, because they…

    How to bunny-proof your house

    Byreneyw January 24, 2023March 23, 2023

    Hide anything precious! Kidding. Cover cables with cable protectors and trunking and invest in metal charging cables. Put clear Sellotape on wooden furniture inherited from ouma. They do not like it and you cannot see it. Win win. PS: do not use tape with Krypton-type glue as it will pull the varnish/wood off the wooden…

    Why you should not dump/release rabbits?

    Byreneyw January 24, 2023March 23, 2023

    THEY ARE NOT WILD ANIMALS, just because they are living feral lives on golf courses, in parks. They are domesticated animals that cannot fend for themselves as they no longer have the capacity to ‘think on their feet‘. They are European rabbits and not hares and cannot cope in our harsh environment. See the difference…

    How much space does a pet rabbit need?

    Byreneyw January 24, 2023March 23, 2023

    Your whole house. And garden. Kidding. They do not need huge amounts of space but must NEVER be locked in a cage as they are very active animals that like to run, jump and play. Start with a room if you can, or at least a sectioned off part of a room. See video below….
