Happy New Year and welcome to the January e-bulletin from

the House Rabbit Network!

Last year was a successful one for us with 137 adoptions.

We also did 18 education events, sent out three newsletters and did well

with both our Yankee Candle and Flatbread fundraisers. Thank you to

everyone for your continued support! So far 2008 has started out well with

Watson being our first adoption on New Year's Day.

The Plymouth Rabbit Round Up continues. We received another phone call

this week about additional rabbits being spotted. It is now clear that

someone is releasing "excess" rabbits in the community. This past weekend

we were lucky enough to capture two. We know at least 4, possibly more,

remain. If you would like to assist us in capturing these rabbits, please

contact us! We can use more people for this round-up.

The House Rabbit Network has entered into a partnership with

Especially For Pets stores. Especially For Pets will trim your

pet's nails for a donation to charity. HRN is honored to be the chosen

charity for the first quarter of 2008! If you are looking for a place to

get your dog or cat's nails trimmed, call your local Especially for

Pets for an appointment. Some stores also do rabbits! Please make

sure to call ahead, they don't take walk-ins. HRN will also be holding

education tables at their stores on the following dates:

Jan 19 - Especially For Pets, Sudbury MA, 12-3

Jan 26 - Especially For Pets, Acton MA, 12-3

Feb 9 - Especially For Pets, Newton MA, 12-3

Feb 23 - Especially For Pets, Westboro MA, 12-3

Mar 8 - Especially For Pets, Medway MA, 12-3

Mar 15 - Especially For Pets, Wayland MA, 12-3

Our next volunteers meeting is Sunday Feb 10th at 1pm in Wilmington.

If you are interested in attending, contact us for more information.

January's bun of the month is Gisele! Gisele is one of the Fitchburg bunnies

who is still looking for a home. Weighing in at 8.5 pounds, she is a larger

girl but that just means there is more of her to love. Gisele can be shy at

first but will warm up to you and likes attention. Rearranging her cage is a

favorite past-time and she likes to toss around her toys. She also loves to

beg for treats, especially raisins. She has a gorgeous brown coat with soft

brown on her back and deep brown ears, nose and tail. Gisele has good

litter box habits. Do you have a home for this pretty girl?

How often do you search on-line? Every time you search, you can earn

money for HRN! Next time you need to look something up, go to

www.goodsearch.com. In the second box, type in House Rabbit Network

for your charity, and then search away! HRN gets a penny for every search,

and with all our members that can add up. It's a great way to support

HRN in your day to day activities.

Have a happy, healthy New Year and thank you for your support of the buns!
