What do you think of the Florida rabbits and CuddleBunny? Comment below!
I wish I lived in that neighborhood
I love bunnies ❤
When I saw the Florida situation I immediately though "Lorelei needs to react to this!"
I wish more people saw bunnies the way we do. And like you I'm curious as to why Tia and Temera weren't vaxxed I feel awful for them and the other rabbits.
My aunt is a rabbit vet in a port st Lucie FL and is currently working to vaccinate, spay and neuter many of the bunnies rescued from the Ft Lauderdale situation.
I’m not a huge fan of cuddlebunny. I just don’t like that fact of kids running around unsupervised and hurting them.
Please make bunny news a regular feature. Very informative. The two news stories are heartbreaking. People need to know about stories like this. Great job!
112 likes and no comments lemme fix that. True btw
I have a lionhead mix, and he’s very high maintenance. That owner needs to be found and charge because who would let these poor rabbits roam around in a neighborhood? I’m so glad the group is helping these bunnies out!
💯% agree!!!
Love the idea of monthly bunny news
same
I just at Atwoods. There were 10 rabbits it an area. They separated the bucks and does luckily. The breed of the rabbits was lionhead Angoras. I noticed the does ran out of hay, and the food wasn't in there. So I went and found an employee to ask if she could do anything. We stood there waiting for someone to come to give them the hay, and I informed them about rabbits! My dad made me leave before I could see. But the employee said she would make sure they got hay. So I saved 10 rabbits today!
Good for you!
What a good 👍 person you ❤️
@@sashaconrad3939 thank you!
@@fluffynonnie thank you!
sorry for the bad grammar!
I have been to Cuddle Bunny about 2 years ago and it made me sad... Especially when my boyfriend and I took a volunteer job there. We only did It for 1 day & we were too disgusted to return... they had about 24 or so bunnies in the basement & they rotated which ones they would bring out each day for customers to play with... I felt so bad for the buns, they looked so stressed and exhausted & the living conditions they were in was not great.. Not to mention, the owner was not a very nice person & wanted to rush all the volunteers to clean up after the rabbits, making it so we didn't have time to thoroughly clean & make sure they are taken care of to the best of out abilities. I have 10 rabbits at home who are all rescues & man oh man it would have killed me if my buns would have gotten the virus from these poor buns that the careless owner of this Establishment could have avoided.. this is why I get all of my bunnies fixed & keep them indoors in big xpens & do everything I can every single day to make sure they're safe and as healthy as possible. Volunteering at Cuddle Bunny was something I thought would be so amazing for me since I am a huge bunny lover & wanted to help all the bun buns out, but the owner made that impossible to do so & only cared about the donations from customers rather than the care of her rabbits, it made me sick :( I could NEVER imagine putting my 10 buns on display for strangers to come & stress them out just to make money, that's very careless on her part
I like the Bunny News format! Such sad stories, but so important!
People who dump pets make me sick! I donated to the GoFundMe.
Yay
The Ft Lauderdale story is just the catalyst we needed. My husband is lobbying our Florida city to stop the commercial sales of rabbits the same way that certain exotic animals in Florida are no longer allowed to be sold in stores. This wouldn't stop backyard breeders but hopefully would cut down on uninformed buyers and increase adoption from rescues instead.
Thank your husband for me. Now that's a keeper!!
This video has me in tears. I live in Chicago and am terrified every time I leave the house that I am gonna bring something back to my twin girls. I am so upset with this entire situation. The most knowledgeable exotic vet to my knowledge is 1.5 hours outside the city. Knowing I potentially have to pack them up and take them so far to get re-vaccinated(our shelter/vet suggesting every 6 months with the current outbreak) since we've only had them for a little over a month-really stresses me out mentally+finacially. I am disheartened to think that someone who "loves bunnies" would be so inadvertent + neglectful about their business + business practices. This is not the bunmom experience I was wanting right away, but I love Juniper + Jenesis so much it hurts and I would do anything for them. Thank you for spreading awareness. I would love to see more bunny news!!
omg this is so sad 😢😢😢these poor bunnies 😢😢😢
Lionheads are so freaking cute though !! Praying for rescues 🙏
We had a similar situation in Warsaw, Poland. In one neighborhood,many rabbits appeared on the street. There were about 20 in total at the time. Our organization (Rabbit Rescue Association) managed to save only 3.... 1 of which was pregnant. My boyfriend and I adopted one of these rabbits and now she is happy together with her husband :) The other two have also already found a home. These rabbits were let loose and lived in the yard and street, one of them was shot but we managed to save her. A total of about 80 animals passed through the place.
It’s so sad that so many have to die because there outside! I don’t have a bunny but I personally would just go and pick up a couple of them and take them home! I’m glad there safe!❤
Yes please do this ....
My Marshmellow was on the street over a year. Now she's with us full time for the past 10 months. Her forever home.
I saw the Florida situation and immediately thought of you! I attempted to respectfully educate people in the comments, but they just kept making uneducated comments on how the bunnies should be eaten.
I am absolutely heartbroken by the situation that occurred at Cuddle Bunny. I have visited Cuddle Bunny Chicago multiple different times over the last few years. After coming across your channel, I decided I would love to adopt pet bunnies. I learned all about being a rabbit owner through your channel and eventually convinced my parents to allow me to rescue 2 bunnies. My family is prone to allergies so our first step in the adoption process was making sure we weren’t allergic. My mom found cuddle bunny and my family and I went to make sure we weren’t allergic and just to see what having bunnies would be like. Being at Cuddle Bunny for the first time was one of the most amazing and magical experiences for younger me. I loved it there and I visited regularly even after adopting my own beautiful bunnies. My last visit was in April, while I was there I met Tia and Tamara for the first time. They were such sweet little bunnies. It’s devastating to think that their deaths could’ve been prevented. After all, they were healthy bunnies that were only 5 years old. This goes to show how important it is to take proper precautions when it comes to protecting your rabbits from RHDV2. Unfortunately, RHDV2 was reported in mid July for the first time in illinois and it’s only going to keep spreading. PLEASE VACCINATE YOUR BUNNIES!!!
I❤bunnies, that would be a joy to be around them
I live in Florida I heard about this 2 weeks ago
Love the news angle!
There are so many videos on UA-cam when owners clearly treating their bunnies terrible bit no matter what you tell them they don’t give a crap and their supportive viewers would call you Karen
I think the idea of a monthly Bunny News Broadcast is an excellent one!
One of the first 700! Yes! New record!
the one in the clip looks just like my bunny. I couldn’t imagine leaving him outside. He belongs in his blanket on the sofa.
I can't stress enough how much you educate the lennies & everyone who isn't. Monthly bunny news updates I'm here for! It's very important for us bunny lovers to spread these issues within our community to hopefully spread this knowledge to those in those affected areas.
I always have to explain to people that my rabbit doesn’t live in a cage. It’s crazy that people still think it’s okay to let domesticated rabbits live outside. I cannot understand the thought process of dumping your rabbits outside in the wild. Also, the amount of rabbit owners that don’t take their rabbits to the vet is crazy! My local rabbit rescue said that they have to turn down tons of boarders because their owners never thought to vaccinate them. If your dog needs vaccines, why wouldn’t a pet rabbit?? Thank you so much Lorelei and Lennon for spreading the truth!!
my vet does not vaccinate rabbits in Cincinnati Ohio; so not always the pet owner.
I have pet insurance for my rabbit and take her for yearly checkups, but in some states, the fact rabbits aren't vaccinated is the fault of the vets themselves. I would need to take my rabbit across a few states to get to one who would vaccinate her. It's a shame they can care about dogs and cats, but not rabbits.
East Coast Rabbit Rescue are amazing! They work tirelessly to protect and save innocent bunnies. Thank goodness for all the kind people from all animal rescues in general too. There are lovely people out there who put animals first and it’s fantastic 💜🐰 X x
LOL. I was begging Monica to help me for months and she refused. Only after I did all the publicity and she made all the money off of it on her fundraiser, that she decided to do something. Which was asked a lot of other rescues to come in and help. East Coast rabbit rescue is only one person.
@@aliciagriggs8531 well I can’t comment on your individual situation as I don’t know you. But I do know rescues reach capacity all the time and can’t always help everyone, even though they try to. I’ve always had positive interactions with ECRR myself. If it is all run by one person then it’s no wonder they may be unable to assist in certain circumstances. Based on the amount of bunnies they do save, then I think it’s amazing if one person is coordinating everything on her own! She has built up a lovely community of volunteers and followers who care about bunnies at that rescue 🐰
I’ve never been this early also thanks to you I’m getting a bunny very soon and I did the proper research and im getting it from a rescue!
Yes would love monthly updates on the bunnies news and what’s going on!
Yesss please do this!! 💗💗
I've been following you for some time now and I rescued my bunny from my neighborhood unfortunately I do not know what happened to his partner but i was able to catch him ! And he lives with me and has a happy home now took me 2 months last summer but now I have a happy buns ! ❤ I caught him the most humane way he came up to me cause I build his trust and vet says he's healthy and everything! I'm I'm canada BTW:)
Yes, yes, yes, do become THE bunny news. This is a move that opens the door for you for so much more. I love it.
Yes! Please keep us updated ❤
Yes definitely rabbit news please. I heard about this and signed the petition to save these babies. This is heartbreaking 💔😭 I don't understand ppl. 😡 Thank you for doing this video 🙏
I have heard of this on Instagram. Praying for more lives to be saved. If more people knew they can be fixed and make great pets maybe more people would rescue them.
What I wish some of these organizations would do, is offer discounted spay & neutering services. Its offered for cats & dogs, but not buns.(in my area) it obviously wouldn't fix this problem, but it could help with others. I don't need to tell you how expensive specialty vets are in general. I just love the idea of a monthly bunny news slot. Give Lennon our love.🐇🐇🐇💙😺✌
I love the idea of you posting like once a month of the rabbit news
you did so good job and take care
I really enjoyed this video because I had read BOTH of these stories on my own, and I liked having the additional lens of a known bunny lover and advocate with whom I am familiar (you, through this channel).
I love this video format... Bunny news is a great idea!!! 💕😊
💖DEFINITELY MORE 💖 I love this. Need actual sounds of bunnies running, their little thuds would make an awesome broadcast sound or quick use between stories. Either way I thoroughly enjoyed it. You were informative and helpful. Keep up the great work. Don’t forget you can run brief funny clips, cuteness overload pic/clip, brief emergency care to direct viewers to your other videos. It’s endless 😅😊
Love the bunny news!!! Keep reporting and recording ❤
My local rabbit rescue just took in 13 bunnies from one of the colonies I actually just adopted a bun of my own from them he was from an unrelated case but we are looking to find him a bond mate and we might be adopting one of the buns they saved from Florida. Name of rescue is Dolly’s dream home rabbit rescue
Several rescue organizations around the country are trying to use the Associated Press article to raise funds when they really had nothing to do with rescuing the rabbits at all.
I had seen this in the news and thought of you. I am glad you are bringing this up. So sad that the individual let their rabbit go. These poor babies need love. Thank you for the link. We are going to donate in Cookies name! Also, those bunnies that died is horrible. So sad that happened to them 😥!
We have had her for 7 months now and she is a hoot. We have learned so much from you and Lennon. She is spayed and waxed! Our local animal shelter just put pictures for bunnies looking forever homes.
I love your vids!!!
Inner ear infections and E.caniculi (a tiny parasite that causes swelling in the brain) are the two most common causes of a head tilt in a rabbit.
Worming treatment panacur rabbit oral paste can prevent this and is also the treatment if this happens.
But when you ask the vet to test for it they won't.
God bless you Lorelei
i live in northern ireland and i’ve been searching online for a centre that i can adopt a bunny from so my current bunny (who is spayed and free roams) has a friend, it’s very difficult to find and when i do find something the website requires photo evidence of a hutch as they believe that is their living requirement !! it’s so sad :c thank you lorelei and lennon for continuously educating us all and spreading the message of proper bunny care ❤️
So many bunnies abandoned like this on Whidbey Island, WA state too 😭
News Reporter Lorelei!!! I love it, lol.
Well! I think you may have a new trip in the works! Let’s go to Florida! We could bring some back with us to local rescues 🥰
Great bunny newscast. Some people have no sense. 😊
Im flying to Florida on Saturday. I saw this and I knew I had to go help capture these poor rabbits. I plan on fostering if I am able to. Thank you Lorelei!
I work hard to educate more people about bunnies and it's because of this channel right here. Thank you Lorelei!
THE BUNNY GIF IN THE BOTTOM LEFT SO CUTE! He smol! 💖
I love this idea!! You look very professional Ma'am!!
Hii Lorelei and Lennon I just wanted to say I love your content thinks to you I am able to keep my bunny inside ( I commented on most of your videos lol) I luv you
It isn’t just that area of Fl near me there is another group of released bunnies. People on vacation or thst get ready to move think warm climate lots of food just dump animals. Cats, dogs, lizards, bunnies etc
This was a fun concept - I loved getting "news" on bunnies! I live in Sweden and vaccinate my three bunnies every year. Unfortunately the vaccine is quite expensive here so a lot of people don't do it. 😢 A lot of people here are also uneducated about vaccines and also about getting your rabbit fixed. There are several organisations working on rehoming unwanted rabbits and rescuing them from the wild. Same problems everywhere...
Here in Toronto, we have the same problem.
People throw lots of rabbits on the street.
My wife and I volunteer for animal rescue organization "Animal Freedom", and we get so many calls to collect rabbits from streets.
I heard about the FL bunnies. I hope they can all be rescued.
I like the story format, hope to see more, thanks.
*3:10** That was so relatable. The same thing for my family. They keep talking about the mess of my rabbits pooping and peeing everywhere, but not once do they talk about taking them to the vet, Another reason why I agree with this Is because EVEN Though they put them outside, especially when you said they weren’t supposed to be, That Is not going to solve the problem, THE Best way to have them live Inside Is to Litter Train them.*
Yes please, keep the bunny news!! Very creative idea for your channel! ❤
Would love if you could make a pamphlet to anywhere who sells rabbits. All the rabbit care facts that new bunny owners and anyone caring for these precious bebes need to know. We are there voice. Thank you for everything you do! You are changing the world. The news is spreading. 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ sending you and Lenny lots of love!
I wanna live in that neighborhood.... 🥺 ❤
Making bunny news is a great idea!
You should definitely try making a podcast or something where you can post once a month^^
This is happening in a town here in MN. They are injured, sick, and populating. Not looking forward to this winter. Several rescues are out there trying to catch them.
We like the news report format. Informative and focused.
Sad the FL City Gov't won't give an opportunity for adoption for the rabbits as they likely would for dogs / cats.
Appreciate bunny news thank you!
I rescue 2 bunnies 🐰 that people raised as meats because they were small I fell in love with my bunnies I name them Paris and Pierre. They are New Zealand breed and they have become my spoiled babies!
I wish you were here to see my bunnies I free roam them in my home but, I feel like I am doing something wrong! They don't like me to hold them Pierre is 4 months old and Paris is 3 months old. They are truly bonded and they are always together like peas and carrots 🥕
It ' s true . Thank you . 🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞🐞
Awww poor babies 😢😢I don’t know why people get bunnies and throw them away like they are nothing 😢😢
All these bunnies deserve owners. If I could, I would adopt them all. I have three adopted bunnies. And I love them all. But seeing all these stray rabbits is heartbreaking.
EveryBunny deserves a loving home! A Cuddly soft bed, abundant food, all the love, and a free roam life! And so much more! Anyone that abandones their domestic bunny to the wild, feeds them to snakes, makes em live in an outdoor unsuitable hutch, or doesn't care for them properly is heartless.
Bunnies deserve news ❤
When i saw that i was like
OH MEH GAH
Please do this regularly
I like the bunny news updates! I vote for them to continue. Thanks!!! 😊
This is a fantastic concept, please continue! It’s important to spread awareness and advocate for change. We are the voices for these little voiceless souls.
I've seen this already on some news channel here at YT almost a month now. And first thing that comes to mind is tag your name on the comment section. Thank God, it finally got your attention.
I always tell people here, if you don't know how to take care of bunnies, don't adopt them! They might be cute and lovely, good as easter gift, but they are more than meets the eye.
If people are educated, they are more less likely to be abandoned in the wild!
Yes Report on the Bunny news!
I just wanna say that im so thankful for this channel because it has helped me ever since I got my bunny 3 years ago. He is a healthy and social bunny who flops and is doing binkies everyday. Im getting another one next month so they're going to be buddies. Thank you for your help!❤
We have feral bunnies in some of our neighbourhoods. It is sad.
Wait WTF omg I can’t believe how this happened I’m devastated
Thank you for providing the links. I just donated.
I live in Wilton Manors. Even before this, we had a feral domestic rabbit population, and it is really sad seeing them out there. The heat is brutal and we get severe storms that I am sure they are not surviving (flooding and wet weather for a week or more at a time). They are not adapted for a subtropical environment.
Lennon Bunny. Keep news content coming ❤️very interest and informative.
Dude I love rabbits so much ! Here in Fargo ND we a population of cotton tails to the point I see groups of them every where . WaaWoo my 5 ye old rescue go at night hang out with cotton tails. And there almost tame. Yes Fargo is not over but gard your garden . I feed a population in the hard winter .
