Midnight (2005)

Tegan didn't so much pick Midnight as little Midnight picked her. While Tegan fussed him and his brothers, he climbed up onto her arm. And although Tegan is just ten, she has spent several months reading up on the responsibilities involved in looking after rabbits.

We wish Tegan and Midnight the best. Remember to keep us up-to-date on progress. If you send us news, we'll update the webpage.

Echo (May 2005)

A sooty fawn doe. Re-homed May 2005.

Hitch (May 2005)

A nervous orange buck when he first arrived but he settled well. Re-homed May 2005.

Rocky and Spike (June 2005)

Rocky is the brown Guinea Pig; Spike is the yellow. Sarah, and her partner Martin, adopted Rocky and Spike. The rest of her family wish they had. The photos show two happy lads in their new home. I'm told they've grown even bigger since the pictures were taken.

Stitch (June 2005)

Stitch is a Himalayan buck and a Nederland Dwarf look-alike but larger.

Ross (July 2005)

Ross is a house-bunny with Kate. She's kept cashmeres before, so has experience in dealing with long-haired buns. Check out local shows in Swansea and you might spot Ross strutting his stuff in the Pet section.

Lewi and Duncan (July 2005)

Lewi and Duncan bonded and have gone to their new home in Pontlliw with Catherine. Lewi never made it to the website. He was so handsome he was snaffled up immediately (that's what Lewi said).

Leo (July 2005)

News from Leo's new owners. Lisa says, "He's been neutered and after two quiet days is running around the garden. He's yet to meet Flo [Lisa and Geraint's other bun] properly, although they seen each other through a net screen and seem to like each other. Flo is so cheeky, she'll probably be the boss."

Every husband in the country (rabbit and human) knows that feeling.

Monica (July 2005)

Monica is a self-black doe and is a very friendly little girl who loves attention. We hope to update you on her new home.

Attila (Cruella the Fella) (August 2005)

Cruella The Fella was sold as a female but when his 'friend' had seven babies, his owners were unable to keep him. So instead of confusing him we added "The Fella" to his name.

He's a house-bunny in Swansea, and his new owners have changed his name to Attila [the bun?]. They say it was hard getting the photos as he doesn't sit too still for long. He's due for a neutering, which should cool him down.

Trixie (September 2005)

Trixie lives indoors with her new boyfriend and their owners, Tracey and Tyrone. She's an orange lop, found abandoned in a garden in 2002, along with another bun we think was her daughter. They were in terrible condition and we lost the daughter. Trixie is a typical female. In the right mood she'll cuddle all day but on off-days she's a grump.

Latest News:

August 2006: "Its been a year since we adopted Trixie. She took a while to get used to the freedom of the garden and even now jumps back in if not in the mood. She won't use the ramp and isn't fussed with the other buns. She loves a fuss, morning and night, and paws the door 'til she gets it. Trixie reminds me of my rabbit Baloo in almost every way and I find myself calling Trixie, Baloo, a few times."

Thumper (October 2005)

Thumper is a three-month-old male. He came in on the 29th of April, 2005 but now lives with his new owners in Cardiff. As you can see from picture 4, he came in as a lop but now one ear is usually up and the other down.

Snoop (October 2005)

A three-year-old German Shepherd Bitch. She's had problems with her weight and is currently six kilos too light, but she slowly regained weight with us. She's now living in Gorseinon and the weight has been maintained.

Lucy and Lilo (Summer 2005)

Lilo and Lucy impressed their foster so much they became permanent household members.

Star and Tiny (November 2005)

Star came to us as a nine-week-old Agouti female; Tiny as a twelve-week-old buck. They are cousins (their mothers were sisters). They cam from two litters of nineteen kittens.

Felix (December 2005)

Pam and Alisha are delighted with Felix, their kitten. As Pam told us, when she sent the pics in,  "Here's Felix, at 8 weeks old. Affectionate, playful, and loved!

Bashful (December 2005)

A buck with unusual tri-colour markings is living in Cardiff. He has the run of the family conservatory and now has a girlfriend called Toffee. Photos and updates to follow.
