Welcome to the May issue of the House Rabbit Network E-Bulletin!
The Yankee Candle Fundraiser has proved so popular that this year HRN is participating in both the Spring and Fall fundraisers! Please check out the catalogue selections at http://www.yankeefundraising.com/html/includes/catalogs/SpringCatalogs.html. If you would like to order anything from the spring selection, please email Tricia Hart at tpmii@... by May 15.This is a wonderful way to raise money for a good cause and at the same time get great gifts!
A reminder also to continue saving those Shaws or Star Market receipts! Shaw’s will donate to HRN
one percent of the total value of receipts collected. So keep asking your friends, colleagues, and family to pass on their receipts. They should be mailed to P.O. Box 2602, Woburn, MA 01888-1102. Funds raised will go towards the medical expenses of HRN’s foster bunnies.
Please save the following dates:
- HRN's 8th Annual Summer Bunny Bash is on Saturday Aug 4th. This is a fun pot luck where you have the chance to share bunny stories (and pictures) with your rabbit friends! Please check our website (or email us) for more information as the date gets closer.
- Our second Annual Flatbread benefit night will be on Tuesday October 23rd. Flatbread holds benefit nights every Tuesday and HRN is honored to be the chosen charity for Oct 23rd! Flatbread will donate $3.50 from every large pizza and $1.75 from every small pizza to HRN. We will also be holding a Chinese Auction. Last year we raised a generous amount for the bunnies so this is definitely a great event for us! Prizes and more details to follow at a later date.
The following Education Events will be held this month:
- On May 5 HRN will be at Sweet Meadow Farm, 111 Coolidge St Sherborn MA, from 12-3
- On May 19 we will be at Pet Supplies Plus, Burlington MA again from 12-3
Please stop by if you can. We can help with any questions you may have about rabbit care, behavior, or adoption. Although we don’t adopt out on site, we will have a folder with pictures and descriptions of all rabbits available for adoption.
Last, but never least, is our Bunny of the Month. Please meet Naomi, a beautiful Himalayan Dwarf. http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/adoption/bunofmonth.shtml
When Naomi first arrived at HRN, she was so scared that she cowered in the corner of the cage. However, her socialization has come a long way. She now barely flinches when you pet her – sometimes even relaxed enough to lay sprawled, legs kicked out, while enjoying a nose rub. She can be a bit stubborn and insist on moving the litter box around but overall she is sweet and good natured. Naomi enjoys her play time outside her cage and shows this by doing binkies (bunny mid-air kicks). She also loves her treats - dried cranberries or peeled baby carrots.
Thank you for your support of the buns!
