Hi there! I rescued Coco after an irresponsible pet owner dumped his rabbits on the river parkway here in Sacramento a year ago. In the intervening months, calls to Animal Control and neighbor visits to the perpetrator, and even though there were many predators (coyotes, owls, and mountain lions), the bunnies multiplied! Two of my colleagues who live nearby rescued first a male, named Apple Jack, and then a female, who we named Coco. I took her to the vet to get spayed, but the vet said there were babies on the way. I've attached a picture of me holding Coco the Friday before she gave birth. I was so amazed at how willing she was to be handled having either been dumped onto or born onto the parkway. Little did I know just how pregnant she was, this pic was just 2 days before she gave birth on Easter afternoon to 11 babies! One was stillborn, and 4 more didn't make it through the first week. But the remaining six are now 8 weeks old and doing great!
