Sweet boy is in foster at K&R Small Animal Sanctuary awaiting adoption. He is MUCH more relaxed in a home environment than he was at the shelters.

Latest Norway news: he's on the move! HSCI has transferred him to K&R Small Animal Sanctuary in OshKosh WI. In order to facilitate transport, he will be spending the next ten days or so in the custody of CatNap from the Heart in LaGrange Park IL. If anyone in the Chicago area is interested...

Unfortunately, privacy issues preclude contacting her - if we could even track her down at this point. Sad, because I'd be willing to bet she would want him back. I have been known to slip my email address to surrendering owners so they have someone who is not bound never to tell others where...

Norway has one of the more dramatic rescue stories I've encountered - one of those that makes me immensely grateful for the role of shelters in our society. Norway's owner went into her burning apartment to retrieve her two rabbits after the meth lab located in the apartment below exploded...

It's official! Critter Camp is a recipient of $50k in the Pepsi Refresh Contest. WOO HOO! I can't thank those who voted enough. I don't know what we would have done without you.

WE WON! WE WON! WE WON! All the top ten finalists (Critter Camp was #7)receive funding once Pepsi audits the results to ensure that all votes were cast fairly. Everyone involved is over the moon - especially the newly arrived bug-eyed NZW just saved from death row :) WOO HOO...

I'm certainly voting every day, but that #6 spot worries me. Way too close to being out of the running. :pray:

Critter Camp Exotic Pet Sanctuary in German Valley IL, which houses over300 previously unwantedanimals, is in serious contention for a grant from the Pepsi Refresh Contest - but it needs your support to win a much-needed spot in the top ten. Among Critter Camp's residents are35 bunnies, most of...

Aww, I totally heart Harry! All of the critters you posted, of course, but especially him. If for some reason his adoption fell through - and I can't for the life of me imagine why anyone wouldn't snap up that cutie in a heartbeat! - you might give him an olive oil rubdown to help ease his dry...

Hi all, I had a transport all lined up for three bunnies and three rats from a shelter in Chicago Ridge IL to travel to Bloomington IL yesterday. My transporter flaked out on me, and if I don't get these animals to the new shelter soon, I fear they may lose their slots. Does anyone know...

CatNap from the Heart in LaGrange Park, IL (near Brookfield Zoo) is overrun with rabbits! For a short time, we are lowering our adoption fees to $50 for adultbunnies (most are already spayed/neutered, the rest will be) and $25 for our too-young-to-alter-yet babies. I'm working feverishly to...

Getting me out of rescue would be the easiest thing in the world. Place all the critters who needsomeplace to liveinto safe, knowledgeable homes, now and always. Easy peasy! :P Craigslist posting with information about all our adoption specials from cats to rabbits to hamsters

We just received an email from an open intakeshelter that doesn't usually need our help begging to take any of a laundry list of small animals. including (hint hint, naturestee) a bunch of black gerbils. We can't accept them until many of the current residents move out. So.... All Your Spare...

I'm stunned that Tequila & Sunrise didn't fly out the door. We have never had true roans in before, and they are BIG and beautiful boys. Pictures do their looks no justice.I'm extra fond of them, and not just because I saved them as their cage was being carried to the euthanasia room. I think...

I'm officially off the clock until the new year, but AFAIK they'll be spayed as soon as we can coordinate volunteer driver & vet schedule. I understand the lop is pretty wild, but she might just have been thrown out of whack by the journey. That's part of why we aren't rushing to promote them...

The ultimate personality bunny of the bunch is also unfortunately a Mr., and that is Max. Words fail me when trying to describe how happy, outgoing, and all around amazing he is. What makes it all the more astounding is that he's originally from a neglect situation and needed painful treatment...

If you've been considering adopting from CatNap, now is the best time ever! From now until the new year, all of our spayed/neutered & microchipped rabbits who have been with us more than 30 days have had their adoption fees lowered to just $25! We have some really wonderful buns who want a home...

Hmm, perhaps Patrick's amorous attentions should turn to this lovely lady, who I knew about but just met for the first time today: http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi?petid=14823114 Or if he prefers big girls, this newly arrived Checkered Giant mix...
