Hi all! Well I'm a new member that was recruited through an animal
welfare group (thanks for the invite & happy to join!!).
My field is rabbits & I have rescued 17 over the last few years. I
run a website - www.boingonline.com which advises on diet, desexing,
indoor housing, litter training & all sorts of other stuff to do
with responsible rabbit care. I also write a free monthly rabbit
newsletter called The Bunologist which provides articles and stories
from all over Australia. Please feel free to join through my
website (wherever in the world you live!) as we would love to build
up our readership & help more bunnies! The stories are really
entertaining & you can submit & participate if you have a story to
share!
I also run another yahoo group called Rescue Rabbit Australia -
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rescuerabbitaustralia/ where we try &
tackle some of the not so nice issues facing rabbits and how we can
try to make a difference. If you also want to read any of our
issues of The Bunologist, you can find them under "files" in the
rescue rabbit group.
I also have a petition that's currently making the rounds about the
$30,000 fine faced by many people in Queensland who have pet
rabbits. I'm proposing that the fine is removed for responsible
people who have desexed, vaccinated & registered rabbits. There are
many people who move between states and cannot take their beloved
house rabbits with them (or either they do & have to live in fear of
the councils). If you would like to sign our petition, please
visit: http://www.petitiononline.com/bunny/petition.html
Great to be here, thanks for the invite & I look forward to chatting
with you all!
