Success stories of some of the fosters..
Bun-Bun aka Gandalf-10/17/2010 has been rehomed with a new bonded buddy in Sept 2010! Gandalf had been adopted, then returned after his family lost their house, so we were happy to be able to place him in a new home with a previous adopter. Updated 1/4/2014-Bun-Bun has passed away. This little guy was a joy to foster and it is with sadness that this is posted.
Alfons-5/20/07 Alfons, aka The Fonz, a cute dwarf rabbit has known a lot of people in his short 18 months. He was purchased from a pet store in 2006, then his owners had to move to a new home in another country. Alfons could not go with them. He was taken to the shelter, then was brought into our rescue. In April, it was found that his teeth were seriously malocludded so we paid for the surgery to have his front teeth removed. In May, he was adopted to his new home where he is adapting to his new people.
Petrie- 2/24/07 Petrie, the blue eyed dwarf rabbit, was adopted as a companion to Roo who had lost her bonded friend last year. Petrie and Roo liked each other on sight. Once at home, they started grooming each other and cuddling.
Jasper-1/15/07 Jasper the hamster, <formerly Little Guy> was adopted by the same person who adopted Good & Plenty back in October.
Trouble, Nod, Mischief- 12/29/06 Trouble, Nod & Mischief, three bunny brothers, were all adopted to the same home after being neutered. Mischief was starting to be a bit bratty to his brothers, but he has been behaving now that the hormones are gone.

Good & Plenty-10/14/06 Tater and Tiny Tot, renamed Good & Plenty, the boy dwarf hamsters from Orange County Animal shelter were adopted by a very nice hamster savvy couple!

Mai Ling-7/30/06 Mai Ling was renamed Sugar and was paired up with a rabbit named Bugsy. She was rescued in January of 2006 before being taken into the animal shelter. She was a lucky rabbit because being himilayn marked means she was going to be harder to place. She was adopted into one home but returned because the new adopters were not sure if their cat was going to be okay around her. Thankfully, this kissy bun has found her forever home with Bugsy. Bugsy, a neutered male was sad after his partner passed away. Sugar was just the ticket to get him eating and playing again.

Her new owners are in the process of spoiling her rotten. Update 3/30/06 Smokey passed away and Buttercup was brought back to the rescue.

I can make sure her teeth are trimmed regularly and I can give her the socialization she needs.
Keera-3/22/04 Keera the hamster was adopted by her foster family after they fell in love with her! Sometimes, it's just too hard to let the special ones go. Keera has come a long way from that tiny cage at West Valley Animal Shelter.

Fuzzy 3/16/01 She was adopted by a friend of mine who recently lost her jersey wooly and was looking for another "needy" one.

She will be spayed next week. Update-5/01 Fuzzy was spayed and is doing wonderful. She is getting more and more friendly as time goes on. Her coat is growing back in nicely after being shaved at the time of her spay surgery to remove the mats..
Savannah 3/10/01 Re-named Isabelle Savannah P. Rabbit! This lucky lady's personality was what saved her from certain death at the animal shelter when I first met her. It also gained her a new home in just over 6 weeks of being here! She is getting along with the cats and bunny safe dogs at her new house so it was a match made in heaven. I am glad that Animalmatch.net had her picture up! It was because of that picture that her life was saved! Because she was adopted, I was able to rescue Mikey and Fuzzy from the animal shelter on their last day. Update 4-01 She has a new bonded friend! Update 10/01 She has a second bonded friend, so she is now in a trio.

Twinkle and Tubby 1/18/01 These Dwarf rabbits were both adopted (as a bonded pair) by a woman who is able to offer them a great home. They are both in need of serious socializing due to neglect.

Olive 12/10/00 He was adopted to a new home today! His sweet personality meant that he was not even up on the board, he came off a waiting list, was neutered, then placed into a prearranged home. (much better for the rabbits because I hate for them to have a long wait here, I like them to go to forever homes soon) (was named James)

Marge and Francis 8-10-00 Two of Widget's babies found a home with Buddy (AKA Costello) and Angelo (AKA P.J) after Felicity and Wally passed over the bridge within a month of each other. They are getting along just great with their new friends. (They were named by their new owners, hence the same name as Marge the first) Update 5/08 Francis, Buddy and Angelo have all passed away but Marge is still going strong.
Marge the first 5-28-00 Marge found a home with a rabbit named Shawn and his family. Marge was a little leary of Shawn due to her cautious personality but they are getting along without any squabbles. A big thank you to her new owners for the extra money added to the adoption fee! Update 8/00-I heard that they are doing great together. Marge is getting much friendlier!
Cleo 5-27-00 Cleo found a new home with a rabbit named Butter. Butter had lost his long time friend and was a little unsure about a new friend. We are keeping our fingers crossed that the two of them form a strong bond. Already, they were exchanging small grooming kisses. Big thanks for the generous donation to the bunny toy fund! We spent Memorial day shopping at Busy Bunny and Bunny Bytes. Update 4-01 I just got an e-mail that they are both doing great! Butter was apparently very ill and Cleo helped pull him through by being sweet and supportive. Update 8/02 This shy girl has blossomed into a friendly rabbit. Sometimes, it just takes the patience of a new family. Having a friendly rabbit as a buddy to show you the ropes helps!
Sunshine 4-2-00 Sunshine found her new home today! Her new family was hoping for a larger rabbit which is great because too often rabbits who are going to be really large as adults are hard to place, even while young and cute. (at 3 months old she weighed 5 pounds already!)
Twins and Pepper 3-19-00 What was going to be a possible couple adoption turned into a 3 some. Two young female mini lops had been left here yesterday and they are going to be matched up with Pepper. Pepper will be neutered before meeting the ladies because even though we "think" they are too young to get pregnant, we prefer not to risk any "accidental births". The twins will be named soon and will be spayed when they are aprox 6 months old.
George 3-18-00 He went to his new home where he will hopefully soon be getting new buddy. Update-A matchmaking with George and Widget failed. George was very jealous of Widget so, Widget came back here and George is going to stay single! Update 7/02 George is still doing great! He is getting along wonderfully with his rabbit slaves. Update 10/08/04 Sadly, George has passed over the bridge.
Harry (aka Chaos) 3-1-00 He was adopted into a trio with Charlie and Nibbles after a weekend bonding session that went very well. (Charlie and Nibbles story is below) Update7-00-Charlie passed away so Nibbles and Harry are on their own. Update 7/02 Harry has passed away after the stress from wildfires forced his owners to evacuate with him and their other pets. It is so sad because Harry was not the type of rabbit to stress! He was very outgoing and bratty.
Beatrix (aka Melody) 1/30/00 She was adopted to a house where she is now a companion to a neutered male. They are having some minor squabbles but they are getting along which is great because he just lost his bonded partner two weeks before and was falling into a depression. Update 1-01 Beatrix is doing great in her new house, getting along with all her family members. She even helped the new kitten "learn the ropes"
Starlight 1/13/2000 This gal was adopted to an elderly gentleman who will take very good care of her. She is one of the lucky strays because she was rescued by someone who cared enough to get her to a safe haven. Many die before they can be rescued. Her outgoing personality saved her life.
Dot 1/4/2000 This lovely lady, sister to Frisk and Melody, was adopted by a family I have known for years. I know that she is in a good home and will out her life happily.
Black Velvet 12/15/99 She is in a great new home with a new best friend, Buttercup. Buttercup's friend Silk was euthanized due to kidney problems and Buttercup was grieving. Velvet was just what he needed to make him perk up! Update 1/01 B.V. is doing well, despite the fact that her buddy Buttercup passed away. She is living in Las Vegas where her new owner moved. Her owner hopes to find her a new bunny friend.
Betsy 10/21/99 She was adopted into a very indoor good home with a family who loves her dearly.

Scooter 4/18/99 The black and white Mini Lop baby is now a therapy bunny as well as a beloved house pet! He passed his test with flying colors and will be going to visit with people once a week. His outgoing personality has made him the perfect rabbit for the job. From abandoned boy to cherished darling, he has come a long way!
The trio of rex babies 4/14/99 as a trio so that the siblings could stay together. They went to someone who works at a vet clinic that sees rabbits so they are going to be well taken care of!
Jasper and Lady 3/28/99 as a bonded pair. Lady will be spayed at 5 months old, Jasper was already neutered last month. They went to a family who will cherish them as members of the family, not just pets. (or as Easter bunnies who will be discarded later!)
Hannah 2/7/99 by a charming new family. This little Rex lady was one of the lucky ones. Some of her brothers and sisters went to pet stores as potential snake food. Not all bunnies born find good homes like Hannah did. I was in the right place at the right time to save her from a horrible fate. Thank you to her new family!
Thunder Renamed Peanut, he was adopted by a couple who adopted Silver (renamed Princess) from me several years ago. The mate we had bonded her to originally had passed to Rainbow Bridge and she was lonesome. No fighting for these two, they got along from the first meeting on 1/16/99. Update-8/00 Both Peanut and Princess are doing great, I went by for a visit!
Cinnamon got her new home! Thanks to those who asked about Cinnamon. I am happy to say that she went to a great family on 8/30/98. I am positive that this is the great home for her. She has her very own girl to pet her and cuddle her.
News
flash! P.J. was adopted and renamed Angelo 12/27/97 by the
same people who adopted Felicity below after Skippy died at the age of 10
years old. So, Angelo has joined Felicity, Wally and Eddie and is adjusting
nicely to the clan. It helps that despite the male sounding names, all three
of his new buddies are female.
New home for Felicity! was adopted 9/14/97 and has been happily matched
with a trio of other pampered rabbits. Her new personal friend is Eddie another
female rabbit but she gets along just wonderful with Wally and Skippy.
Great news! 11/16/97 Daniel and Flash
were successfully match-maked as a couple and were adopted by a great new
family!!
A match made in heaven!: 11/25/97 Charlie, our mini rex foster, was
match-maked with Nibbles, one of the Netherland dwarf rabbits who was adopted
from me in 95. It's a match made in heaven, and both of them, their owner
Debbie and I are ecstatic! Debbie was wonderful, Nibbles was one of our special
needs buns who was a biter. Debbie has spent the past two years working with
her (and being bitten) but Nibbles has gradually calmed down, proving that
patience can often work miracles. (and Debbie sure has a lot of patience,
Nibbles was pretty feisty and can still be a brat sometimes) 4/02
Sad update-Charlie and Nibbles have both
passed over the bridge, Charlie passed 7/00 and Nibbles 4/02.
She was saved! Duchess
12/4/97,
a large albino rabbit gave birth at the Santa Monica shelter. She was
stressed and lonesome. Her time ran out and the shelter called me. We raced over
and picked up her and two adult males. The next day, a phone call came in from a
woman who had seen Duchess at the shelter but got back too late to get her.
Duchess was spayed and adopted within two weeks. She is now a house rabbit with
a friend to play with and a huge place to call her own. Talk about lucky! (I
still have the two males for adoption, please call!)
Sad Update-Duchess passed away in 2000
New home for a Guinea Pig: Jerry,
a neutered male guinea pig who was
abandoned here was adopted 6/08/97 and now has a best friend named Doc!
Love at first sight! Well, almost! Lucky was accepted by Sasha and a pair of great folks. Sasha's mate had died and she was lonesome. So, after trying practically every other bunny and having her attack them, he finally had what it took to turn her head! Sasha was just being careful since she knew that a rabbit should be kept for life and didn't want to make any mistakes in picking out her new partner.
