Update: severely neglected bunny

Yesterday, I made a post about this severely neglected bunny. Today, I was able to pick him up and safely bring him to Lucky Bunny Rescue in Southern California.

His life changes today. For the first time in years, he’ll have room to run, other bunnies to bond with, fresh veggies, and people who will care for him the way every bunny deserves.

This is the ending I was hoping for. And as a reminder, if you see an animal that needs help, speak up. You may not be able to change the world, but you can change a life.

Bunny Rescue

I recently moved back to California after living in Florida for a few years, and when I came back, I was horrified to learn that my neighbors have a bunny living in horrible, and I mean truly horrible conditions.

From what I was told, the bunny was originally bought for one of their kids, who eventually lost interest in him. Since then, he has essentially been forgotten.

He is kept in a very small cage in the backyard where they store all of their tools. The cage is covered in feces, there is almost no room for him to move around, and he never gets out. He spends 24/7 in that tiny cage, barely able to walk because of how little space he has. I’m not even sure what they feed him, but when I saw him, there was no hay. The cage was completely bare except for feces and a small litter tray that had no pellets and was soaked with urine.

I told them this was completely unacceptable and that the cage needed to be cleaned immediately. The truth is, I don’t think they are willing or able to properly care for him. When I went back today, I checked on the bunny and saw he is still in those same conditions. It is so incredibly sad to see, words cannot even explain.

Because animals can’t speak for themselves, I believe it’s our responsibility to speak up for them. So I did, and I was able to convince them to give up the bunny, so he is available to be rescued.

Before anyone asks why I can’t take him myself, unfortunately I live in a one-bedroom apartment, already have a small dog and two cats, and I’m already at the limit of how many animals I’m allowed to have. I just want this bunny to spend the rest of his life in a safe, loving home. So I’m hoping someone can point me towards a bunny rescue in Southern California, or if anyone located in San Diego or SoCal is able to take him, I am more than willing to pick him up myself and drive him wherever he needs to go so he can finally have the life he deserves.

This bunny has apparently spent the last four years in this tiny cage, surrounded by urine and feces, with no space to walk or properly turn around, in the back of a tools shed, and it honestly breaks my heart. I truly think this situation is urgent, and I want to get him out of there as soon as possible.

I don’t have any photos at the moment, but I can try to get some if they are needed.

If anyone can help, knows of a rescue, or is willing to give this poor bunny a loving home, please let me know. I just want him to finally have the chance to live the life every animal deserves.
