I am crying as I write this and I've decided tobring it to the rabbitry because some of y'all might need to check yourfire alarms for new batteries or consider getting sprinkler systems orwhatever.
The lionhead community has just suffered a devastating loss. One of ourtop breeders, Mossy Possum Farms, just had a fire in their barn andthey lost ALL of their rabbits, their cages and even their carriers.There is some question about babies in the nestboxes and if they willsurvive (I'm guessing they're looking for mamas to foster in the area).
Mind you - their doe took Best of Breed at ARBA convention in FortWorth last month...and they also had a doe sell for $750 at the auctionat Lionhead Nationals last year.
And its all been wiped out by a fire.
So if your rabbitry is in a barn or some sort of enclosure like that -please go check the wiring - make sure you have fire alarms in there -and do whatever you can to protect the animals.
