HOPPY THANKSGIVINGHappy Thanksgiving, everyone! Today and every day, we are grateful beyond words for your support, compassion, and kindness. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all you do for LNB. What we do is only possible because of what YOU do, and we are truly thankful. However you're spending today, we hope it's filled with love and joy (and hopefully a parade, too - Bandy gave the Philadelphia one this morning four paws up)! ... See MoreSee Less

WELL BUNNY WEDNESDAY: Why the Outdoors is No Place for a Domestic Bunny!Domesticated rabbits are prey animals and are susceptible to many dangers when they are kept outdoors, including:Predators—wolves, foxes, hawks, owls, and even raccoons are threats to bunnies. If bunnies are kept in an outdoor hutch, a larger predator could easily knock it over or damage it to get to their prey. The scare alone could kill the bunny! Disease—in addition to being bitten by insects that can cause disease, rabbits are also susceptible to Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV). Although vaccines are available to protect against RHDV, keeping your rabbit indoors is the best strategy to prevent them from contracting any disease/illness. When kept indoors, it is also easier to monitor their wellbeing and to detect if something is “off.”Parasites—fleas, ticks, mites, worms, and coccidia are some common parasites that can infect rabbits. Although other pets can bring some of these parasites into the home to infect your bunny, the risk is much higher when a rabbit is kept outdoors and their living situation/habitat may not be kept as clean as an indoor habitat would be. Weather—rabbits do not tolerate heat well. They cool themselves through their ears, by stretching out and by panting. When they cannot dissipate heat in this way, they can suffer from heat stroke. Thunderstorms can also be stressful for rabbits. Thunder, lightening and heavy rain can frighten a domesticated rabbit kept outdoors. Being trapped in an outdoor enclosure during active weather events can lead to unnecessary stress for the bunny. Using hutches and harnesses outdoors are also dangerous for bunnies. Hutches do not provide the space, enrichment, or safety that bunnies require. Bunnies kept in hutches outdoors can easily be forgotten or neglected. Bunnies also have fragile bones. A bunny can easily break their back if they become frightened while in a harness. Wearing a harness can also be stressful for a rabbit, causing unnecessary anxiety. Indoors is the best place for a domesticated bunny! They will be safe from predators, parasites, and the elements, and owners can keep a careful watch for the bunny’s happiness and safety! ...

TAKE ME HOME TUESDAYOne more Take Me Home Tuesday post for 2024! Next week, we hope you'll join us for Giving Tuesday. We'll be sharing photos and stories all throughout the day - both of the bunns we have saved this year and the humans who have made it possible. And as always, we'll be pausing adoptions in December, but before we do, we'd love for you to say hi to Minx!This sweet girl was found as a stray, and not long after we rescued her last December she surprised her foster mama with a litter of babies. Almost all of them have been adopted now, and we're hoping it will be their mama's turn soon! Minx is a quiet bunn, but she happily comes out of her shell once she knows you. And head rubs? They are her very favorite thing!If you'd like to be the one to offer those to her "furever," and to fill her life with all the love and warmth she so deserves, please email bunnies@luvnbunns.org for an adoption application! ...

BUNNY CARE CORNERGood morning, everyone! Hoppy sunny Wednesday to you all. I have a unique topic for us to discuss today - music! A couple of you requested a column on this, especially when it comes to music that helps bunnies when they're afraid, and since I always aim to please, I thought I'd hop right to it.Now, I am all ears (as you can see in this picture!), but when it comes to music, I don't normally have too much of a reaction. I will say, though, I am a fan of Kelly Clarkson. One time when she released a new album and Ma was listening to it, I legitimately was hoppin' and boppin' along. Ma tells me I would make an awesome "backup bunn" for Kelly, because during her concerts she's always telling people to "jump!" - and I am proud to say that I just so happen to be an expert at that. Kelly, if you see this - I am available, and so is Bandy!Aside from Kelly, most of the music I hear is limited to when Ma sings "You Are My Sunshine" and "I Love You a Bushel and a Peck." Now, I love my Ma, I really do, but I probably should not have typed "music," because let's just say she will not be winning a Grammy Award any time soon. But the sentiment is there, and when she gives me head rubs at the same time, I often close my eyes and become a bunny pancake.All that said, Ma has indeed enlisted the help of music - and the television - when there are loud noises outside that spook me. These days I'm not bothered by much, but I used to be pretty frightened of fireworks. And Bandy? He is still VERY afraid of them, along with the sound of the leaf collection truck, which we think is a bunny version of PTSD from the time when he was dumped outdoors on a construction site. Any time one of those sounds sends Bandy fleeing under the furniture or cowering in a corner, Ma turns on music in an attempt to drown them out. She has found that uptempo music works best in Bandy's case.But just like you humans, us bunns have varied tastes in what kind of music calms us. Have you ever tried this technique for your rabbits, and if so, what works best?Until next time ...Nose boops and binkies,Jasper Jellybean 🐰P.S. Do you know what a bunny's favorite kind of music is? HIP HOP! Get it? #punnybunny 😉 ... See MoreSee Less
