Welcome to the September e-bulletin from the House Rabbit Network!

We have several education events coming up this month. They

are fun events for the public, so please come on by! This is a great

time to talk to HRN representatives.

Sep 8 - Tufts Open House, Grafton MA

Sep 9 - Pet Rock Pet Fest, Worcester, MA

Sep 16 - Purr-fect Cat Shelter Pet Walk, Norfolk County

Agricultural High School, 400 Main St Walpole, 10-3

This month's bunny of the month is Eskimo! Eskimo is a handsome

white bunny with pretty pink eyes. He is very soft. Eskimo loves to be

petted and will come to the front of his cage to say hi or stop playing to

get some pats. While he can be playful, he has a sweet, gentle way

about him. He likes to play and run through the play tubes, but prefers

to be near people. Eskimo has excellent litter box habits. He is a good

hay eater and enjoys raisins for a treat. He would love to have a

family of his own.

Save the date! HRN's annual benefit night at Flatbread will be held on

Tuesday night Oct 23rd from 4-9pm. Please join us for a fun night

out and help raise money for the bunnies. More details will be posted

on our web site soon. Currently we are seeking donations for the

auction we plan to have that evening. If you have something that you

could donate, please contact us!

HRN's annual Yankee Candle Fundraiser is going on. We are selling

candles from the fall catalog until Sept 15th. You can view the catalog

on line- this is a great way to start your holiday shopping, they make

great gifts! If you would like to make a purchase, please email us at

info@.... There are no taxes or handling charges on

orders. This fund raiser is for local residents only, due to their heavy

weight, we cannot ship candles.

http://www.yankeefundraising.com/html/includes/catalogs/FallCatalogs.html

The House Rabbit Network still has many pink eyed white rabbits

for adoption from the Fitchburg rescue. These rabbits are nice,

gentle rabbits. Unfortunately many people don't like the pink eyes,

which is making it harder for us to place them. If you thinking of adopting

another rabbit, please consider one of these rabbits.

HRN set up a blog over a year ago and we have been posting

pictures and stories about rabbits. If you can't resist bunny pictures

and stories, then you need to check it out!

Welcome to the August issue of the House Rabbit Network E-Bulletin!

Last call for attending the annual HRN potluck, aka the Summer Bunny Bash! This fun potluck takes place on Saturday 4 August at 1 pm in Wilmington, MA. Come meet other rabbit lovers, trade your bunny stories, try out different dishes, and have a great time! Email info@... to sign up.

The Fall Yankee Candle Fundraiser officially kicks off at the Summer Bunny Bash. This fundraiser has proved so popular that this year HRN is participating in both the Spring and Fall fundraisers! Please check out the Fall Collection at http://www.yankeefundraising.com

This is a great way to prepare in advance for the holiday season as these festive Yankee candles make fabulous gifts. Even better, HRN will receive 40% of all proceeds so this is a wonderful way to raise money for a good cause and at the same time find great gifts for your friends and family! For orders, please email Tricia Hart at tpmii@.... The sale ends 14 September.

HRN will be holding educational booths at the following events:

September 8 - Tufts Open House, Grafton MA
September 9 - Pet Rock Pet Fest, Worcester, MA (http://www.petrockfest.com).
September 9 � Sweet Meadow Farm Day in Sherborn (http://www.sweetmeadowfarm.com)

These education days are good opportunities to talk with knowledgeable rabbit people about any questions you may have on rabbit care. We will also have informational handouts and profiles/pictures of our bunnies available for adoption. Please note that rabbits are not adopted out on site.

We hope you have marked Tuesday October 23 on your calendar! This will be HRN�s second Flatbread Benefit night. Last year�s benefit was a huge success so we are thrilled to be a chosen charity for a second year running. Located in Bedford off Rt 62, Flatbread is a unique community-oriented restaurant that makes a point of using local and organic produce for their recipes. 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.

Now to our Bunny of the Month- Ringo! Ringo is an adorable bunny with a cute white spot on his nose! When he sees you he runs right over to the edge of his cage looking for attention and treats. Ringo likes giving kisses and will happily wash your face for you. If he's not washing your face, then he is looking for pats or a treat. He is fond of food, in fact a little too fond. He has been on a diet and has already lost half a pound! You do have to be careful giving him his food as he is a little too eager to eat it and might mistake your finger for a carrot or piece of lettuce.

Ringo is a confident and self assured rabbit. He enjoys his play time and is

always exploring in the exercise pen. He is fairly active and always looking

for the next adventure. Ringo has good litter box habits.

And finally, HRN now has its very own MySpace page: http://www.myspace.com/houserabbitnetwork

Check it out for fun pictures and videos, and all things bunny-related. If you have your own MySpace account, please consider adding HRN as one of your friends � this will help spread the word about our rescue work as well as the wonderful rabbits available for adoption.

As always, thank you for your support of the buns!

Subject: July News from HRN!

infohrn@...

Welcome to the July issue of the House Rabbit Network e-newsletter!

With summer upon us, we would like to remind bunny parents to be mindful of the heat and the dangers it presents to rabbits. Temperatures of 90 degrees or higher can be fatal to rabbits, and, when humidity levels are high, even a temperature of 80 degrees can cause heat stress. If you do not have an air conditioner, there are several things you can do to keep your rabbit cool. These include freezing water in soda bottles so your bunnies can lay against them, putting ice in their water bowl, and misting their ears with water. You can also use a fan to blow air across an ice block. For more tips on summer dangers, including fleas and fly stroke, please check out: http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/articles/summer.shtml

HRN is currently involved in a large scale rabbit rescue in Plymouth. This began in the spring when we received word about several rabbits on the loose. Exact numbers were not known but it soon became clear that the rabbits were not neutered or spayed - and their population was growing at a rapid rate. Domestic rabbits rarely survive in the wild for long. Without the necessary skills to make their way, they are vulnerable to predators, and their lives are often frightening and short. With these concerns in mind, a core group of volunteers has been making enormous efforts to catch these bunnies. Extra help is always needed so if you are able to assist with this rescue please contact our hotline at 781-431-1211.

Readers may recall that in January of this year HRN took in over 30 rabbits in a law enforcement case. These rabbits, many of whom were babies at the time, became known as the Fitchburg rabbits. Some have been adopted but many are still waiting for loving homes. Please consider adopting one of these bunnies � by doing so you not only be welcoming a new bunny to your home, but also opening up a space in a foster home for a Plymouth rabbit. Profiles of the Fitchburg rabbits can be found at: http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/adoption/fadopt.shtml

July�s Bunny of the Month is Daisy, a brown and white English Spot mix - and a big lovable bun! Daisy is always at the edge of her cage watching you, and as soon as you open her cage door, she wants you to love her with lots and lots of pets! Daisy does wonderful bunny flops, even in her cage. She's a happy girl! Daisy is very playful and loves to run around. She is also gentle and sweet, and would do well with children. You can see a picture of her at http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/adoption/bunofmonth.shtml

Each year HRN produces a calendar featuring HRN rabbits. We are now gathering photos for the 2008 calendar. If you have any high resolution bunny pictures that you would like to submit we welcome you to do so! The only caveat is that the bunnies need to have been fostered by or adopted from HRN. Please send photos of no more than 5 MB per email to enverking@... by August 1^st.

And finally, don�t forget the annual Bunny Bash on Saturday August 4^th at 1 pm in Wilmington. This is a fun pot luck where bunny friends meet to chat and trade stories. You can also bring pictures to show off your buns! To sign up and get directions, email info@... or call our hotline at 781-431-1211. We hope that you can

make it!

Thank you for your support of the buns!

Welcome to the June issue of the House Rabbit Network E-Bulletin!

There will be a huge yard sale on Saturday June 2^nd to benefit the House Rabbit Network. Lots of fabulous items will be available to buy including furniture, household items, clothes, crafts, collectibles, and much more. The location is 14 Westford St. in Allston which is near Brighton Mills Plaza. This is also a great opportunity to meet some of HRN�s foster rabbits! So please mark Saturday June 2^nd, 9am to 2pm, in your date books. The rain date is Sunday. For more information please contact 781-431-1211. Hope to see you there!

The spring Yankee Candle fundraiser was a great success! Thanks to our volunteers� efforts, we generated $3634 in Yankee candle sales. This translates into an approximate $1520 donation to HRN! Since this is one of our most popular fundraisers, we will also be participating in the fall collection. The kick-off date for this will be August 4, the day of the HRN�s annual pot luck � also known as the Summer Bunny Bash!

Our bunny of the month for June is April, a big, beautiful New Zealand White rabbit. She has a snowy white coat, and pretty ruby eyes. April is always at the edge of her cage to greet you and enjoys attention. When you talk to her in the cage, she listens attentively. April is vocal and will let you know she doesn't like something with gentle grunts. Playtime is fun as she races through the tubes and binkies along the edge of the pen. Then she stands on her hind legs to check everything out! She has excellent litter box habits. April is one of the Fitchburg bunnies.

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!

Welcome to the April edition of the House Rabbit Network e-bulletin!

HRN is calling on everyone who shops at Shaw�s or Star Market to hang on to all their register receipts! We are participating in a fundraiser whereby Shaw�s will donate to HRN one percent of the total value of receipts collected. So for the foreseeable future, please ask 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.

House Rabbit Network has several events coming up in the next month. First, we will be holding the following education days:

� April 21 - Animal Spirit, 2348 Mass Ave Cambridge MA, 12-3 pm

� May 5 - Sweet Meadow Farm, Sherborn MA, 12-3 pm

Please stop by to visit us. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have about rabbits and rabbit care. We will also have information of available rabbits - however, we do not adopt out on site.

We will also be at the New England Animal Rights Workshop on April 14. This will be held at the Public Library in Shrewsbury, MA. HRN is scheduled to speak from 12:30-1:00 pm on PetCo's recent decision to start selling rabbits.

Easter is now upon us, a time when, sadly, many baby rabbits are impulsively bought for children. Many of HRN�s bunnies were dumped in shelters, and eventually came to us, as a result of this. Can you help spread the word about HRN�s �Adopt A Retired Easter Bunny� campaign? You can do this by printing out and hanging up our flyers. There are two different versions, one with pull tabs and one without.

Also, please support our bunnies through the purchase of �Adopt a Retired Easter Bunny� merchandise at http://www.cafepress.com/retiredrabbit

And, finally, on to HRN�s Bunny of the Month for April. Please meet Finnigan, a fun little bunny! He is a cute brown dwarf rabbit who is very curious and loves to explore. When he is in his exercise pen, Finnegan is always running through the tubes and jumping onto the stool. Finnegan is quite the jumper and easily jumps out of his pen and onto lower tables. He loves to run around and check everything out! While he is very playful, Finnegan also likes attention and happily flattens for a snuggle session. He loves his greens and raisins for treats. While in his cage he plays with toys and rearranges his cage, pushing his litter box around. He is an active rabbit who would do well in a home where he could get plenty of attention and play time. Could that be you?

Have a Happy Easter and thank you for your support of the buns!

Small animal nail trims will be available for a $5 donation so if your bunny�s nails are getting on the long side, here�s your chance to get them seen to! For some family fun, there will be an Easter Egg Hunt (for a small donation) as well as a coloring contest.
On March 17, we will be at Animal Spirit � a health food store for pets � also from12-3 pm. Animal Spirit is located at 2348 Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge, MA.
The next day, on March 18, our booth will be at Pet Source in Stow, MA from 11am-2pm

Please stop by to visit us. We will be happy to answer any questions you may have about rabbits and rabbit care. We will also have information about available rabbits - however, rabbits are never adopted out on site.

Easter is now approaching. Sadly, this is a time when many baby rabbits are purchased on impulse and then abandoned a few months later at shelters (or worse, released into the wild where they most likely perish). Please do what you can to educate the public and encourage them not to buy rabbits. HRN has flyers covering the reality of Easter Bunnies which you can print out and post at libraries, cafes, and other places.

Moving on to our Bunny of the Month. This month we are actually showcasing a dual act. Please meet Chloe and Clover, a sweet pair of sisters. http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/adoption/bunofmonth.shtml

They both like to be petted and quickly put their heads down for a buffing. Chloe and Clover are very pretty � their photograph does not do them justice! They are extremely playful and love to run around the exercise pen. The girls will race through the tubes and do binkies for you! Ever curious, they are usually at the edge of their cage to check things out, and quickly beg for a treat if they think they can get some out of you. They are excellent hay eaters and have great litter box habits. Since they are slightly larger girls, all they need is an extra large cage, play time and someone to love them. Maybe that person is you!

And finally, don�t forget to renew your membership! If you are not a member, please consider becoming one. Your tax deductible donation will be used for medical costs (spays/neuters, vet bills) and educational expenses. With your yearly membership you will receive copies of our newsletter, Rabbit Tracks, when they are published. Currently there are three issues per year. Our memberships run from April 1 until March 31st. HRN memberships run from April l to March 31 (monies paid in January/February will be credited to the next year). http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/join.shtml

Welcome to the February 2007 edition of the House Rabbit Network e-bulletin!

This has been a frantically busy time for HRN. At the end of January, we took in 34 rabbits from a law enforcement case in Fitchburg, MA. These rabbits had been housed outdoors and continuously bred. As HRN was given only 48 hours to make arrangements, volunteers scrambled to pull in the rabbits, sex them, and get them into temporary housing. To say this was a huge undertaking is putting it mildly! Luckily, many of the rabbits are young litters. This means that fewer of them are likely to be pregnant, and many can be housed together, at least temporarily. This will buy us time to find placements. We have been contacting other rescue organizations to take in rabbits � so far Sweet Binks, 3 Bunnies, and Hop Along Hollow have been able to help out. We are also busy scheduling numerous spays and neuters. HRN is seeking donations to help cover the cover these medical bills. If you would like to contribute, please write a check to "House Rabbit Network" with "Fitchburg" in the memo section and mail it to: House Rabbit Network, P.O. Box 2602 Woburn, MA 01888. For Pay Pal options, please check out http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/fitchburg.shtml

Recently PetCo has started selling rabbits in local stores. HRN is strongly against any rabbits being sold in stores, especially since so many rabbits are being euthanized at local shelters. In response, we have issued the following statement:

The House Rabbit Network is saddened to see that PetCo has abandoned its "Think

Adoption First" initiative and has unfortunately started selling rabbits in their stores.

Since HRN is against selling rabbits in stores while rabbits are being euthanized at

shelters, we cannot in any way condone it. Therefor, HRN will no longer be able to

have a relationship with PetCo.

HRN is please to see that many people have contacted PetCo to express
their concerns with this development.

Now on to our Bunny of the Month. Please meet Bramble, a fun bun who loves to shake his head then throw himself up in the air to perform a spectacular binky! He would love to find a home where he has plenty of room to scoot around, jump and play. Bramble is a handsome boy with pretty agouti fur and some Dutch markings. (You can see how adorable he is here: http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/adoption/bunofmonth.shtml) He loves to be patted and will stay along side of you for hours. Sadly for Bramble, he has been waiting a long time for a forever home. Has your home been waiting for him?

With Valentine�s Day coming up, it�s perfect timing for HRN�s annual �Love is in the Hare� promotion. HRN has many sweet and devoted couples in foster care waiting for a loving home. Please check out http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/adoption/pairs.shtml to see couples available for adoption. We also have cute �Love is in the Hare� logo items (such as T-shirts, mugs and teddy bears) available for purchase at http://www.cafepress.com/lovehare

February is also national �Adopt a Rescued Rabbit� month, a promotion supported by HRN and rescues across the country. Most people do not realize that rabbits are the third most frequently abandoned pet at shelters. Part of HRN�s mission is to provide much-needed education on taking care of companion rabbits in an effort to minimize this tragic but all too common situation.

As always, thank you for your support of the buns!

Happy New Year and welcome to the January 2007 E-Bulletin of the House Rabbit Network!

A big thank you to everyone who helped make 2006 such a successful year. HRN found new homes for 141 rabbits � our second highest total ever! We also held 40 education events which we are thrilled about since this outreach not only raises awareness of our adoptable bunnies but provides important information on care and behavior to people already living with rabbits.

And so on to our first bunny of the month for 2007. Meet Mabel, a beautiful white mini-lop. Mabel is a friendly bunny who is always at the edge of her cage for pets. She just loves attention! Mabel is curious and often plays with her toys in her cage. The slinky is one of her favorites. She will even race around in her cage. Playtime is a blast as she runs around the exercise pen. While Mabel is a sweet girl, she can be protective of her litter box and a little too eager with her food. She has accidentally bitten people when in a rush to get a treat. For this reason, she would do best in a home without children. Adults can easily compensate for her behavior. Mabel has excellent litter box habits.

HRN will hold a volunteer�s meeting on Sunday Jan 28 at 1pm in Wilmington. New volunteers are always needed and anyone is welcome to attend. If you are interested, please email info@... or call 781-431-1211 for more information.

Please remember to check out the HRN blog at http://blog.rabbitnetwork.org. Here you can read anecdotes about current bunnies available for adoption as well as useful information about rabbit behavior from their foster parents.

Thank you for your support of the buns!

We have lots of good news for this issue! First, we are thrilled to report that HRN has been awarded an Animal Rescue Grant from Oxbow Pet Products!

Subject: November News from HRN

infohrn@...

Welcome to the November e-bulletin from the House Rabbit Network!

We are delighted to report that HRN is the recipient of a $1000 grant from

Wal-Mart! The Wal-Mart/Tewksbury "Community Matching Grant Program"

offered HRN the opportunity to match a portion of funds raised through our Yankee

Candle Fundraiser up to $1000 and HRN received the full amount. Wal-Mart is also

receptive to the idea of conducting an HRN Education Day at their busy Tewksbury

location which would be excellent exposure for us.

On the topic of exposure, October was a great month for spreading the news about HRN.

One highlight was the Boston Vegetarian Food Festival on October 21 where many people

visited HRN�s table. Diane Mayer, HRN�s education coordinator, reports: "we spoke with

several potential adopters, and handed out information. Past adopters also stopped by to

say hello and give updates on their rabbits. Others who saw the HRN banner came over to

say hello and to thank us for the work we do. We took in $115 in sales/donations, and it

was especially nice to hear that so many people hold HRN in such high regard!"

The November Bunny of the Month is Farhad

Farhad is sweet, lovable, and craves attention. Farhad is a dream bunny just waiting for the

perfect forever home. He is well-trained with his litterbox, curious and although he does not

like to be picked up, loves to curl up beside you for pets and, of course, treats! Saved from

an abuse situation, he is so grateful to be warm and safe and he shows it with affectionate

nose rubs and the occasional lick. He enjoys his toys and together time, so if you're looking

for a bunny to watch TV or just to hang out with, he's your ideal bundle of joy!

And, finally, please don�t forget that November 28 is HRN�s Benefit at Flatbread! From

4-9 pm, Flatbread will donate $3.50 for every large flatbread purchased and $1.75 for every

small one. There will be a Chinese raffle where some wonderful prizes are being lined up.

These include donations from: Wholefoods, Starbucks, Muscular Therapy Associates,

Bunnyhugs Pet Sitting, Busy Bunny, Oxbow Hay Company, Sweet Meadow Hay, Dodge

Grain - and much, much more! Bring your friends along, hang out in good company, and eat

delicious food � all while helping HRN bunnies. Can�t get much better than that!

Flatbread is located at 213 Burlington Road on the Bedford/Burlington line. For more

information and directions, please go to our web site at www.rabbitnetwork.org/flatbread.shtml

As always, thank you for your support of the buns.

Thanks to all who participated in the Yankee Candle fundraiser. We raised over

$1400 for HRN! Candles should be arriving in a couple of weeks.

This month we are going to feature Rollo. Former bunny of the month, current foster

rabbit. September marks one year that she has been in foster care. She seems

to be having a hard time finding her forever home, and she is such a great bun!

She is friendly, loves attention, loves to play, and has perfect litter box habits. It

is amazing that someone hasn't scooped her up by now.

The September bunny of the month is Lea!

Hello! My name is Lea. I am a 1 year old spayed female mini lop who weighs

7.25 lbs. Unfortunately, I was abandoned and found by animal control, but I am

in a loving foster home now! I have my foster mom trained well, too! Every

morning I hit my food dish against the side of the cage to wake her up, and she

feeds me! Can you believe humans can be so highly trainable?! I love to come

out of my hutch and hop around and play with my toys. I even do little hopping

dances when I am very happy! I never ever bite, and I LOOOVE to be petted.

I�ll even flop over on my side to let you pet my whole body! Sometimes my foster

mom tries to hold me, and I tolerate it for a little while, but then I get squirmy. I�d

much rather be petted. My foster mother has been trying to see what foods I like,

and most foods I will chomp down very quickly. Please do not feed me tomatoes,

chicory, bok choy, or turnip greens. I don�t like them very much. Some of my

favorite foods include romaine, green leaf lettuce, collard greens, kale, carrot tops,

carrots, peppers, and small bits of apple and banana. I am also VERY well litter

box trained, which comes in handy when my foster mom lets me hop around the

house- she doesn�t have to clean up my messes. All in all, I am a very happy, healthy, and well adjusted rabbit who is patiently waiting for the right permanent home.

Sep 9 - Tufts Open House, Grafton, MA, 10-3

August News from the House Rabbit Network!

We are currently holding our annual Yankee Candle Sale. If you would like to purchase candles, the catalogs can be viewed online here:

http://www.yankeefundraising.com/html/includes/catalogs/FallCatalogs.html

Email us at info@... and we can tell you how to place an order. Orders

and checks must be received by August 15th. Unfortunately you need to live in Eastern MA to participate in this fund raiser. We are unable to mail orders to people.

Summer season is a difficult time for shelters and rescue groups. Many people surrender their animals before they go on vacation while most people prefer to wait until after their summer trips to adopt. This means that most shelters are overloaded during the summer. HRN is currently full, and has a wait list of rabbits waiting to come into our foster system. If you have been thinking about adopting a rabbit, now would be a great time.

August Bun of the Month Punky is looking for a great home!

Punky is a pretty bun with beautiful blue eyes and dainty eyeliner around them. She is a bit of a prima donna and is very expressive. She expects to be worshipped and you know exactly what she likes, and doesn't like. She loves her play time, racing around the exercise pen and throwing in binkies all the time. Don't take too long giving her pellets, or she will grunt at you. Punky, a.k.a. Punkerella, has two litter boxes. One she sleeps in, and one she uses for her perfect litter box habits. Do you have a home for this diva?

July's Bun of the Month Harpo was adopted!

The Annual Summer Bunny Bash was a huge success! Brag books were everywhere and plenty of rabbit stories were told. Thanks to everyone who attended. If you would like to order Bun in the Sun merchandise, it is available at Cafepress. http://www.cafepress.com/buninthesun

also gently mist their ears with water to help them cool down. Make

sure they have plenty of water!

Adoption Initiative! The program runs July 1 - Dec 31st. They will be

She was found wandering around a landfill and is looking for a forever home

Annual Checkups for Buns

We would like to remind everyone that your rabbits should visit

their veterinarian every year for a check up. If they haven't been

in for a while, make that appointment today! Rabbits are animals of

pray that tend to hide their symptoms. Your veterinarian may pick

up on things that you can't see, and also get a baseline for future

visits.

April bunny of the month is Starla!

Starla is a friendly bunny. She is very energetic, racing and playing

during her exercise time. She also likes to explore. Starla will

rearrange her cage. She likes to be petted and soaks up the attention.

When happy, she will flop on her side. Starla has excellent litter box

habits. While she is sweet, Starla also has some spunk! You can

definitely tell when she is happy. When she as at the shelter, her name

was Starbuck. We decided she is too much of a lady for that name, and

changed it to Starla. That does fit, because she should be a star!

Starla arrived into foster care and a few hours later gave birth to a

litter of babies. (We don't breed rabbits, however sometimes we get

bunnies in who are very pregnant) They are 4 beautiful girls that look

exactly like mom. Look for them in June, after they have been spayed.

Bunny of the Month � Chubby

Chubby is a big love! He is a larger bunny- weighing in about ten pounds. He is very gentle and sweet. Chubby really enjoys attention and is often begging at his cage. Ok- some of the time he is begging for treats. He has a tube that he loves to sleep in. He also has excellent litter box habits. Chubby is one of the Williamsport rabbits and he has been in foster care for 18 months now! Hard to believe no one has adopted this great bunny. Do you have a home for him?

Happy New Year. Welcome to the January, 2006 issue of the House Rabbit Network�s E-Notes.

Our next volunteer meeting will be held in Wilmington on January 29 at 2:00 P.M. For directions you can email us at: info@...

One hundred ten lucky buns were adopted this year. Lots of hours logged by our volunteers and members made this happen. Thanks to all the volunteers for their hard work!

Huge thanks and appreciation is extended to Dr. Astrid Kruse who took our Benny into her home and cared for him for weeks on end after he was injured. Thanks to her devotion and loving care, Benny has fully recovered from his injuries and has been adopted.

Thank you to all who participated in our first annual �I�m Dreaming of a White Bunny� campaign. It was a huge success.

Bunny of the Month � Bailey

Bailey is a friendly bunny who was abandoned outside last summer. He enjoys attention and loves to run and play. He is very curious and enjoys exploring the exercise pen. Bailey likes his pellets and has good litter box habits. Do you have a home for Bailey? You can view him at: http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/adoption/bunofmonth.shtml

Thank you for your support of the bunnies this past year. We have some exciting fundraisers to consider this year. Watch for our upcoming fundraiser meeting announcement.

Welcome to the December, 2005 issue of the House Rabbit Network�s E-Notes.

December is a busy time of the year for everyone, but especially for HRN volunteers. We have lots of announcements to make and we hope you are as excited as we are.

This year we are participating in the "I�m Dreaming of a White Bunny" campaign. Many white rabbits with pink or red eyes are often overlooked by potential adopters and at shelters simply because they have no eye color. These beautiful New Zealand White�s are truly remarkable rabbits with fantastic personalities and most are quite comical. Please consider a New Zealand White rabbit to adopt as a single bun or as a pal for your existing bun. Visit http://www.rabbitnetwork.org/white/whitebunny.shtml to learn more about these beautiful rabbits. While there, don�t forget to check out our new line of clothing.

Bunny of the Month � Flash

Flash is an incredibly sweet bunny. He loves to be petted and snuggled. Flash is very gentle and mellow. He was originally found as a stray bunny. His right eye was infected and had a ruptured retina, which sadly needed to be removed. Flash is only about 6 months old now and still has a little growing to do. He has large, curious ears and a long white tail. His litter box habits aren't the best, but no bunny is perfect! Do you have room in your home for this lovable stray who has already been through so much?

Thank you for your support of the bunnies this past year. Your contributions have helped pay for spays and neuters, surgeries, care and housing of the rabbits. Without your help, some of these beautiful creatures would not have survived.

Have a wonderful Holiday. May you keep safe and secure and we wish you the very best for the upcoming year.
