In Memoriam 

Today we said goodbye to our dear sweet Charlie Brown.  He has been through a lot but his poor 13 year old body could not hold on much longer.  Charlie was a precious boy who loved soaking in the attention of volunteers.  During his months at Harvey's House, he grew to be one of my favorites and I always tried to make an effort to spend some time with him.  Charlie was the first rabbit I featured on this blog as a way to share is story with the world so others could learn about rabbit care through the eyes of a elder bun who has been through and survived a lot in his many years.  I am so glad he was able to make it to his 13th birthday and allowed us to love on him until the very end.

Beyond the Rainbow

 As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played, 

I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade. 

I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble free, 

where all of us can meet again to spend eternity. 

I saw the most beautiful rainbow and on the other side 

were meadows rich and beautiful lush and green and wide! 

And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see 

were every sort of animal, as healthy as could be! 

My own tired failing body was fresh and healed and new 

and I wanted to go run with them but I had something left to do. 

I needed to reach out to you to tell you I'm alright, 

that this place is truly wonderful - then a bright glow pierced the night. 

'Twas the glow of many candles shining bright and strong and bold 

and I knew then that it held your love in it's brilliant shades of gold. 

For although we may not be together in the way we used to be 

we are still connected by a cord that no eye can ever see. 

So whenever you need to find me we're never far apart 

if you look beyond the rainbow and listen with your heart.

White Fury Chocolates Easter 2014 Update

4/3/14   EASTER 2014- White Fury Chocolates

Well, we have begun taking and filling orders of chocolate bunnies.  Damon and his mom made TONS of mini bunnies to be bagged and sold at our rabbit-approved vet's office.  I am very pleased with how many friends and family have ordered chocolate bunnies.  We still plan to make several extra large and bags of mini bunnies to be sold next weekend at the Egg hunt fundraiser that our rescue is hosting to raise money for the medical fund.  I am excited to see how well the chocolates sell and hope this continues to be a successful fundraiser for our rescue.

4/7/14- Packaging 

We have begun packaging the orders we received for chocolate bunnies.  These are the bunnies we made to fulfill specific orders.  There are 28 bags of mini bunnies and 42 large single bunnies of various flavors.  We have also molded a ton of minis that were bagged and are being sold at our local veterinarian's office.  This week Damon is going to make additional large and minis in milk chocolate, dark chocolate and cookies n cream for the upcoming egg hunt for our friends at the rescue.

Thank you so much to all of our family, friends and coworkers who have ordered bunnies from us.  Your support will go to help many rescued bunnies.   

Rescue Visit - March 29, 2014 (Guest post by Damon)

Former foster bunny Fluffy came for a visit, and we spent a little time with him. The little fella was fun and playful, but wasn't being a cooperative model for the camera. He just didn't want to pose.

As energetic as those little dwarves are, they eventually wear out. Once back in his cage, Fluffy dozed off......and snored. And snored. And snored.

Gytha came out to play, too. She and her sister, Esme, had to be separated recently, and Esme has since been adopted. Gytha is still uncertain when it comes to interacting with people but we're working with her to gain her trust. She's slowly coming along, but it will take some time before she's begging for pets and kisses.
