Liquorice’s monthly checkup, hygiene shave and injection done ✅

We are in awe of this special little girl who despite the spinal injury that first put her in our path when she was a teenager, is still doing so well 3 years on!

Because of her special needs, dainty Miss Liquorice has an adoring forever foster family and is not available for adoption.

If you would like to help with her care please chat to us about contributing to her monthly vet visit 🐰💞

UPDATE: unfortunately, love alone could not save Fluff and earlier today we made the compassionate choice and bid him farewell 💔

Thank you Chantelle for being with him at the end and for being his “human” and the only mom he’s ever known! Your love, care and compassion made Fluff’s world a very special one!

And thank you Dr Perushan for trying so hard to work another miracle for one of our buns!

Binky high and happy little Fluff 🌈🐰💞

🚨🐰 MEET FLUFF 🐰🚨

Fluff is fighting for his life as we speak at our vets and needs all your love, support and if possible donations towards his care.

He’s a Fourways area bun that has been visiting the garden of Chantelle and her family regularly for the past year, even eating out her hand!

Yesterday morning through, she found him severely uncoordinated and in obvious distress and need of urgent care.

Chantelle reached out to us and we arranged that he been admitted with our BAESAC friends.

There are no physical injuries thankfully but the neurological symptoms he is displaying are severe.

We are very concerned but hope he can pull though. The cause is likely parasitic but as he continues his treatment, we are praying for improvement over the next few days.

And as of this afternoon we are thrilled with a glimmer of hope: despite still being very wobbly, he’s started eating pellets in his own! What a little champ!

Stay strong and get well soon sweetheart! We love you 💞🐰🙏

🥳 This evening we are celebrating our tough cookie, Cadbury and his clean bill of health! 🥳

You might remember our posts back in April when Cadbury first joined our family. The poor dude was in a really bad way.

His botched sterilisation required 2 more surgical interventions and his nose and mouth were caked in dried mucous. His scabs and small wounds spoke to the fact he had also been bullied and attacked by other buns.

Slowly, his recovery started thanks to our superhero vets, and not only his heath but also his confidence soared.

The infections he had suffered required multiple courses of treatment but we have now had two monthly thumbs-up checkups (latest being this afternoon’s appointment) and we are confident we are at long last out of the woods.

Cadbury is a gentle giant that just wants love and affection and we are keeping everything crossed that the bunny fairy will grant him his wish soon for a most magical furever home ✨🐰🙏

As always, thank you Dr Perushan and the BAESAC team for being there to help another little soul in his time of need!

If you would like to support our work by contributing towards Cadbury’s vet expenses we would be most grateful and it would be a huge help. Thank you!

🐰 Bunnies are natural interior decorators—and their favorite design move is tossing their belongings across the room 🐰

Throwing and flipping toys isn't just playful chaos; it’s a vital outlet for a rabbit’s natural behaviors. In the wild, bunnies are constantly clearing tunnels, tossing away roots, and rearranging their space.

Lightweight toys give domestic rabbits that same satisfying workout for their muscles and mind.

* Built-in instinct: Tossing toys satisfies their natural urge to clear obstacles and manage their territory.

* Brain & body exercise: Grabbing, flinging, and chasing objects keeps active minds sharp and prevents boredom.

* Top tossable toys: Willow balls, seagrass rings, untreated wooden blocks, and simple paper towel rolls make perfect, bunny-safe targets.

If your rabbit loves aggressively rearranging their playpen, don't worry—they aren't throwing a tantrum. They're just having a ball!

We’d love to hear from you what are your buns favourite toys! Please share your stories and pics with us.

‼️ It might look gross to us, but for a rabbit, it’s just taking their daily multivitamin ‼️

Bunnies don't actually re-eat regular waste—they consume cecotropes, which are soft, nutrient-rich packages produced in a special part of their digestive tract.

Because a high-fiber diet is tough to break down on the first pass, rabbits process their food twice to absorb vital B vitamins, protein, and beneficial bacteria essential for gut health.

* The double-digest technique: Tough plant fiber gets fermented in the cecum, packed into cecotropes, and eaten directly so no nutrients go to waste.

* Not all droppings are the same: Dry, hard round pellets are waste; shiny, berry-like clusters are the vital nutrient bites.

* A sign of good health: Healthy rabbits usually eat them immediately, so if you're frequently seeing unconsumed cecotropes in the litter box, it's a sign their diet might be too rich or they need a check-up!
