GA rabbit hoarder update

The lucky (and cute) survivors of a litter that was rescued by GHRS

This 03-29-2013 article seems to be the most complete and fact-filled update yet.

You can see more pictures of the rescued bunnies on the GHRS Facebook photo page.
(Warning: They are not all as fortunate as the babies above.)

There is an emergency need for foster homes and funds to care for these rabbits. The bunnies have been and are being cared for at Windward Animal Hospital by Dr. Stewart Colby (thanks, Doc!). The survivors of horrendous treatment at the hands of the hoarders (and others - see the article) will need foster homes shortly. This influx has maxed out the GHRS resources of space and funds -- right before the Easter "busy season" when so many "Easter rabbit" impulse buys are abandoned.
