Have you ever wondered why rabbits aren't a good pet for kids and why we're so strict with our adoption policies? Aside from the fact that they are prey animals and scared of loud noises and fast movements, children do NOT know how to properly care for rabbits on their own. So often we see this happen, but we don't always have the opportunity to share the faces behind the stories...since often it'...s too late. Welcome Pippen to Hug-a-Bunny. Rescued just in time with her mom Poppy from a home where they were owned by a high school student. Both are disabled and NEITHER got medical care...because the girl's parents refused to spend money on them or take them to a vet (this situation is being investigated). Thankfully, she reached out through the internet to find someone who could care for these two rabbits, which was seen by one of our foster moms. Pippen is a young female missing BOTH ears and half of her foot. She has no idea that she's missing a few body parts! She's spunky, sweet, and loving! We think that Pippen is about 3 months old- she has a whole life ahead of her! Welcome to the rescue Pippen...we promise you'll never have to worry again!
