Happy Easter from your friends at MyHouseRabbit.com!

Here’s a cute photo we came across today.

When three baby bunnies were orphaned by a dog attack and brought to a wildlife rehab center, they were given another chance at life. Noah, a one-legged resident pigeon, has taken on a protective, nurturing role for the kits. Now, they all live together and the bunnies snuggle under Noah’s wing.

The Vancouver Rabbit Rescue & Advocacy, a chapter of the House Rabbit Society, is looking for photos for their 2010 calendar. The theme, in honor of Vancouver hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics, is “The Olympic Rabbits.”

They are looking for photos of rabbits doing natural rabbitty behavior like yawning, stretching, binkying, digging, bulldozing, standing, grooming, and snuggling.

Does your bunny have what it takes?

The Great Lakes Rabbit Sanctuary in Willis, Michigan is the largest rabbit rescue in the US, housing 550 rabbits. You can read more about the sanctuary in an earlier Rabbit Rescue Spotlight post on our bunny blog or at the Great Lakes Rabbit Sanctuary website.

I love seeing photos of the place with all the permanent residents hopping around in their fenced-in rabbit pastures. Here is a recent photo from The Ann Arbor News. Celeste Defellici had called out “TREATS!” and all the bunnies came running.

The Great Lakes Rabbit Sanctuary is in need of donations – leafy greens or a monetary contribution. If you would like to help, call 734-461-1726, or visit the website at www.rabbitsanctuary.org.

Named for Vincent van Gogh, who famously chopped off his own ear, Vincent the bunny was born without any ears.

His owner, 16-year-old John Haigh from North Yorkshire, England, had first discovered the earless bunny among a litter of 10 bunnies. All of Vincent’s siblings were born with ears.

A wild rabbit has grown bold and has begun venturing into the rhino habitat at the Taronga Western Plains Zoo in New South Wales, Australia (400 km northwest of Sydney). The rabbit, called Robby, waits for the rhinos to eat their fill and then eats the seeds.

Ray Milkey of Los Altos, CA won $1000 when the photo he entered of his two foster bunnies was chosen as the best entry for PetSource.org‘s “Cutest Baby Pet” contest. He has generously opted to give the prize money to The Rabbit Haven, the shelter where the two baby dwarf hotot rabbits, Lassen and Denali, came from. Due to the popularity of the contest, Lassen has already been adopted, and with any luck, Denali will find a forever home soon too.
