Adoption Update: Ella

You may be wondering what happens to a Hug-a-Bunny Alumni after they leave our foster program and enter their new home. We often get update emails, telling us how amazing our rabbits are and how they are JUST as we described them! Ella (a beautiful Flemish Giant adopted in March 2008) originally came from a horrible abandoned farm. We called this "The Sterling Rescue of 2007" and helped many rabbits and a turkey get out of a horrible situation. Ella was adopted by an amazing family! Her mom, Stephanie, found all of the things Ella loves best, which includes sitting under her favorite table and playing with toys! It's always nice to hear updates on how amazing our former Hug-a-Bunnies are doing...and even better to SEE them! Stephanie was nice enough to send over this video of Ella. You can't help but crack up as you watch her!




After living in NYC for several years, about a year ago Stephanie, her husband, and Ella moved to California! Ella was so brave on the flight (she was in the cabin with her mom of course) and had a tough time settling in. She's definitely our farthest Hug-a-Bunny now! Stephanie recently sent us another email to update us on Ella's adventures in California.

Hi Jamie!

I wanted to give you an update on Ella. The initial few months after moving to CA were really hard on her.  We were so worried.  We eventually found an amazing vet that really helped us. We bought a place with a shared backyard and she absolutely loves it.  She's obviously getting old and slower, but it's so great to see her so happy.  I pasted a picture below of her enjoying he backyard.  Thanks again for all that you guys do for these cute little buns - they're so lucky to have you guys.

(Note: We typically do not like our rabbits going outdoors, even for playtime, but Ella's mom Stephanie has made her setup VERY safe and rabbit-friendly!)
