Update: Rabbit thrown out with the trash

Polly is her new name and being a spoiled house rabbit is her game! If you blinked you would have missed how long it took Polly to go from rags to riches!

I took Polly to the vet the day after I got her. Thankfully, she got a good checkup overall--teeth looked good and ears were just waxy, no infection, but this poor little skinny rabbit who weighed 3.5 lbs needs to gain at least 1 lb, maybe a tad more to be at a good weight. Gee whiz, that is about 1/3 of her current body weight she needs to gain. I guess we can understand why--what rabbit wants to eat chicken gumbo soup!

But don't worry, she is having no problem eating her way to a healthy weight! She loves pellets, hay, greens and fruit. She is thankful for real food. She will be spayed once she has gained enough weight.

Kelly McCafferty (and Kyle) are the proud new foster parents of Polly and say that she is doing fantastic. She loves to run around and explore everything and loves to jump up on the couch! She is such a loving bun too; will sit in your lap and snuggle in for a nice long petting session.

All I can say is what in the world is wrong with people? Who could throw this sweet, wonderful, loving rabbit out with the trash???
