THIS IS A CROSSPOST [NOT MY SHELTER] PLEASE IF YOU CAN HELP CONTACT INFO IS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE POST!! THANK YOU!!



15 July 2008 San Gabriel, Southern Calif. PLEASE
CROSS-POST

We have 39 rabbits at the shelter. If we do not get 10-15 rabbits out
within the next 10 days--or if more rabbits come it) they will begin to
euthanize. PLEASE DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN.

These are wonderful, adoptable, beautiful, mostly spayed and neutered
rabbits and they all deserve a second chance.

Can you help? We will find a way to transport if you can take some bunnies.

Please help!

I have enough air miles to get to LA and back, albeit without the cash to pay the gas surcharge and taxes :sigh:and I've got a place to stay.

And I'm not sure about bringing the bunnies back in the cabin, I think I have to fly Air Canada, and that means cargo. :(

But I do have the will and the space.

I kept thinking about Scooter, I know how it is for mini-rexes to be caged like that, how they really get depressed, which is something mentioned in his listing.

It turns out he's not listed on the Zooh site because he becameEXTREMELYaggressive and stressed and had to be pulled from the shelter. He is now deemed a 'special needs' bunny who can only go to an experiencedhome who can work with him. Alex has him temporarily, but says she has 24 other rabbits and she can't give him the attention or free-range he needs. :(

However, I'm perfectly set up to do so. He can have free-run of the livingroom here, and can interact with humans and other bunnies -- or not. His choice. And I'm certainly used to biting rabbits. Both Dill and Darry (and Sherry to an extent) came here as biters, with Dill being the worst of the lot. As I've said elsewhere, if you didn't behave, he'd latch on to the closest body part (that wasn't a hand or face). It was just part of who he was and I loved him for it.

I don't think Scooter will be anything like Dill -- he's far from a cheerful little bunny -- but he has the same needs that Dill had when he arrived. I think I can make this little guy happy.

I sure want to try.

Alex will adopt him out of state given his circumstances -- not a lot of candidates out there.

But now I have to get him here.



sas :?

PS: pulling Scooter means one more bunny is off the dreaded 'e' list.
 
He's only 1,275mi – about 19 hours 51 mins away according to Google maps. (I would have guessed 1500 miles).

It's a 2 hour, 45 min flight, shorter with a tailwind.

There are no customs or border issues, I think he just has to look healthy. I assume that some airlines will require a vet check to ship, but not for a cabin flight. I don't know about shipping this time of year, but he needs to get out of there soon, if for no other reason to free up space for an endangered shelter bun.

If he can't be shipped, I'm willing to give up my trip around the world for this guy if need be. I have enough airmiles -- barely -- to fly anywhere I want in the world right now.Unfortunately,with the taxes, fuel surcharges, etc, it will still take a couple hundred bucks cash to fly there, or for someone to fly him here to me, if he travels in the cabin, and that's not doable for me right now -- even though I have a place to stay and cook Kraft dinner,and I canwork out the local transport, so that's all it will cost me. (And my airmiles mayrestrictmeto a non-pet airline,I have to see what's out there).

So...

- anybody know any flight crew or friendly airlines who might bring him up as a favor? (First choice).

- or... anybody in L.A. interested inaVancouver vacation?You can stay on mychewed up hide-a-bed. I'm right next door to Stanley Park, the Vancouver Aquarium, etc, and blocks away from the beach, downtown, etc, it would be a loverly time. ;) I'll even feed you!

- or...any thoughts onshipping him safely and cheaply?

sas :pleaseplease:
 
I hope I am posting this properly. If not, it's my poor overbunnytaxed brain! :shock:

This far we have only fund place for ONE rabbit. Everyone is just so full this year...

Thank you all so much for keeping this topic going and for posting it around. Bunny people are SO cool! :D

I do have feelers out about getting a bunny or bunnies to Canada. Pipp, can you email me your location and what US areas are close enough for you to drive to? And how far from Vancouver are you?

So... if anyone has any other leads, please let me know. You can email me at [email protected] or [email protected].
 
Hey Alex, I did email you that info last night --or I sent it at least, so it's at the mercy of the computer -- using my telus.net address.

As noted above, it's a 2 hour, 45 minute flight, which should be safe for shipping if that's an option.

There really shouldn't be a border issue, but if he needs to be picked up in the US, I'm a doable three hours from Seattle. I just sold my car (figures) but can find a ride share to SeaTac or catch a bus (for $100). I livejust blocks away fromdowntown Vancouver.

I can travel any day, any hour, although if I'm looking for a rideshare, there will be less options.

I'm looking intoflying to LA to pick him up, or trying and find somebody to fly from LA to Vancouver. (I'm well acquainted with Los Angeles, no problems with a place to stay, although local transport may be a little tricky).

Does your org have any flight personnel contacts? I've been meaning to try and see what flight crew chat boards (or whatever) might be out there. That of course would be the best option -- having a crew member bringing him here in the cabin asap.

sas :clover:
 
I forget why but for some reason I was checking recently on flying bunnies into/out of Canada. I think it was when there were a bunch turned in someplace and they were flemmies...

Anyway - if I remember right - it is about $100-$120 to fly here in the states - but to take them into Canada - the price of the flight almost doubles or it is like $100 difference...something like that. When you consider a 6 hour round-trip drive to pick him up at SeaTac....I'm not sure if it would be better to just fly him to Canada...not sure about your gas prices, etc.

I hope this helps somewhat...


 
Oh wow he is adorable! Bless you sas for trying to get him to your place. He would be so lucky.

I dont think they would fly bunnies in cargo this time of year, would they? I thought it was too hot bc they have to sit on the runway or something.

I have a contact who is a flight attendant out in CA. Let me check with her- I dont think she goes to Canada but maybe Seattle would be doable?
 
Hi,

I will not put a rabbit in cargo, so it cannot happen that way. Just too dangerous for a bunny, especially one who is already nervous and bitey, poor dude.

If iy could be under the seat in a carrier, or if we can find drivers. I have a few more calls to make today.

Pipp - could you send me some pics of your bunnies and set ups? I don't want to be rude, but I can;t visit or anything and I just want to be sure you are as wonderful as you seem.

Also, with no care, how do you get to vet? Get veggies?

I will make a few more calls. I have a friend with a plane, but I don't know if he can or will go to Vancouver.

If we can arrange this, would you be taking one of Rowan's racy little babies, too?

Hi! I've known Pipp for almost 3 years now and I want you to know she's an excellent caregiver. Knowing her the way I do - if she had to take a taxi to the vet - she'd do so (I think I've read about her doing that before). She's also very much aware of the needs of her rabbits and has taken them to the vet regularly for molar spurs and gas attacks if I remember right.

You can read her blog here: http://www.rabbitsonline.net/view_topic.php?id=11425&forum_id=6

I'm sure it doesn't have as much information as she might like because she's always so busy with running this forum and keeping things going. Much of her time is spent answering questions in the infirmary (she's also on the etherbun yahoo list).

You can also read Pipp's posts here:

http://www.rabbitsonline.net/view_user.php?id=1199&posts=1

Finally - I think you'll really get to know Pipp a bit better if you read her tribute to Dill, the bunny she just lost:

http://www.rabbitsonline.net/view_topic.php?id=37249&forum_id=27

I hope this helps alleviate your mind.

It's always better to ask to make the rabbit gets a good home. I know my rescue does home checks and vet checks and referrences. Even then we have had rabbits returned to usin rough shape.
