Parsleys Warren Rabbit Sanctuary

Cream bunny Cyrano on his hind legs, a bunch of hay in his mouth, ears pricked

Cyrano would just like to say that today is an excellent day to start 'nesting'!! Esecially if you are a 9 year old male (castrated) rabbit! Maybe its the first time he has ever seen as much hay as we gave him to keep his chalet warm yesterday so he has decided to spend him time moving it around!

Small grey lionhead Albus Dumbledore with his new poofy red eyed white lionhead bun wives Winne & Wilma congregated around some forage and a willow chew toy on a lovely blue & white rug

They just get more and more cute!! Cherry Garcia (now Albus Dumbledore) after his first night with his new girlies - what an amazing trio!! Well done Poppy Hall We are all SO thrilled and thank you for the images.

Lop Pamplemouse at the food bowl with Parsifal in full dead bunny flop just below, white Atlas licking one of his ears

PARSIFAL to Atlas): Ooooh no just to the left a bit, and the right . . . yes, just there, oooohhh yes . . . oooooooooohhhhh
ATLAS: Are you sure you are meant to enjoy this this much? I mean I'm just licking your ear . .
PAMPLEMOUSE: Can you please stop. . its putting me off my food!!

A sleepy, fluffy Cherry Garcia, post castration in his travel case with a few tempting greens to munch on

Cherry Garcia is asking himself whether he is any longer Cherry Garcia or just Garcia. We had to explain that 🍒 are not the same as plums #livingwithrabbits

Charles & Delphinium bunnies out in the run, a bunny chalet behind them, Charles nomming the lush green grass, Delphi looking judgemental from a raised bunny bed/net footrest

Well Charles, you can wade around getting wet paws if you like, I am not moving from this handy raised bed until the dry weather comes back next summer! Pass up some grass will you. . and try and dry it a bit before you do!

Florentino flat out fast asleep in dead bunny flop position, one solitary boo framed by ears at an obtuse angle

There is something positively yin/yang about this artistic arrangement of 'a rabbit and his faithful poo' . . .

Cherry Garcia, a small grey lionhead bunny with a white stripe from nose to ears

Cherry Garcia doing his best to appear to be a guinea pig . . . Cherry very 'kindly' donated his space on the operation schedule to Florentino who needed his teeth checked although 'whilst they were there' so to speak the vets also removed Florentino's 'little hindrences' from the other end . .

Mr March, the one & only Burlington Bertie looking judgemental

Burlington Bertie says BUY OUR CALENDARS or else he will be round to you personally with his curly ear and disapproving stare . . . Available at parsleyswarren.space/shop. Prices held same as 2022/3. . only £7.50 plus £2.50 p&p.

Tiny white lionhead bunny Fairyflax, flat out fast asleep half in and half out of the (empty) metal food bowl

It’s been an exhausting day and this Goldilocks aka Fairyflax hasn’t manage to make it as far as the bed #livingwithrabbits

Atlas a white lop with EC being cuddled by Parsifal, the token ‘healthy’ rabbit

Fairyflax a poof of white fur also known as a red eyed white lionhead bunny cuddling up to the larger, chunkier white lop bunny Atlas

Atlas is having to work really hard today as all round bunny 'support' now that Harry is no longer with us . .

We will miss our scruffy little black bundle of fun who always determindly hung onto the end of the metacam syringe and loved everybun and everyone he

We buried him with bouquet of garden roses . .

We are always grateful to our fabulous vets who take the time and effort to talk through all options and then spend time to make the final passing the easiest and calmest and to our trustees who help support us in our determination to prioritise the welfare of our residents.

Intake photo of a much younger Harry, a small black lionhead bunny

We are very sorry to announce that Harry is no longer with us. Some eye swelling was discovered to be an retro-bulbar abscess and existing problems in the nasal passages and tear ducts related to his age meant that it was much much kinder for him to let him go rather than attempt a removal.

Cherry Garcia: a lovely light grey Lionhead boy with white socks and nose stripe chinning his reflection in a chalet window pane

'Mirror, mirror on the wall . . . ' Cherry Garcia falls in love . . with himself! (He’s a rescue that’s probably passing through. Was dumped & had nowhere to go). First though! Getting rid of those plums all boys grow!

Hello lovelies 💜!!

Please be kind to yourself today, you are allowed to take breaks, and you deserve nice things.

Here’s Peanut to brighten your day!!

(so MUCH to do)!. But do hop over and have a look at the Residents Page which we feel very proud of completing. www.parsleyswarren.space

a gallery of 'Current Residents'. We will soon be adding a gallery of Past Residents and updating Easter's Bazaar (now the 2024 Calendars have arrived!) and the Newsletter page will have more of our super Newsletters posted up…

In the last few days we have been trying to do a very much needed update to our website! We are having to do it in 'spare' moments between all our other vet trips and work and rabbity stuff, so it is still a work in progress . . but we have finally added…

Parsleys Warren Rabbit Sanctuary Banner with the Warren Header, featuring Thistledown, Berlington Bertie, Pamplemouse & China Cat Sunflower

Wow!!! Our new Parsleys Warren 'banner' arrived . . you won't miss us at The National Rabbit Festival now!

Parsifal doing the dead bunny flop showing his pale fluffy belly

The softly speckled underbelly of the otherwise brilliantly 'plumaged' bunny Parsifal .

I dare not tell him she thought it would take about 6 months or more!! He is however very proud of his latest vet bill . . . a cool £1,200 to add to last months £1,100 . . . . .

We now have more PPE stocked up in the rabbity meds cupboard at home than was purchased by the goverment from their 'friends' during covid!! But today the vet said she was really really pleased with how it was going . . and its getting better much quicker than she had hoped . . .

Charles, stretched out & snoozing on the hay in the litter box

Charles says that he is just so 'over' going to the vets and having horrid stuff flushed out of him twice a day at home . . . I don't have the heart to tell him he has another appt booked next week . . and the week after . . and the week after . .

China Cat Sunflower, an orange russet lionhead lop in a pink litter tray with a plush mammoth toy that’s only slightly larger next to her

Talking of holidays . . I forgot to post this one of China Cat Sunflower with the woolly mammoth we brought back from a cave site in France earlier this year . . . the resemblance is amazing! Though the mammoth does not use a litter tray . . let alone a pink one . .

Charles in a set of Runsround rabbit pens on the lawn in the garden

Testing the 'streeeeetch' on post surgical fashion wear . .

Charles in a green post surgery bunny top on vet bed with bottles of the medication he is on next to him

Charles is all ready for the outdoor world! medicated, flushed (we thought we wouldn't share that!) and neatly dressed in the latest of post-surgical fashion!

A bunny cuddle puddle blocking Bertie from the food bowl, so he’s half climbed over a stretched out & very chill atlas’s who’s head is in Percy & legs are against Parsifal

BERTIE: No really . . its fine Atlas . . I think I can 'just' reach the food bowl if you lay still and be a bit flatter . . and maybe just squash into Harry a tad . . .OOps sorry Parsifal . . . didn't mean to wake you! Was that one of your dark brown spots? And there was me thinking was a pellet!

HIMY: Well just you carry on sitting on ours . . we don't want anyone whisking them away again and having to retreat back upstairs!
