When Rabbits Oreo and Whispa arrived at the centre a month ago with there young babies we were concerned that Whispa may already be pregnant. Our concerns were confirmed last week when Whispa gave birth to another nest of kits. Thankfully we were aware and had been preparing Whispa just incase by offering plenty of good food and a separate nest box which Whispa had been busy filling with her fur. Whispa and her new babies are doing well and her first set of babies are now weaned and have their health checks booked at the Vets soon.

The importance of neutering.....
Rabbits can reach sexual maturity from just 12 weeks of age. Hormones are not only related to fertility but will also affect your rabbits temperament and may cause frustration and aggressive behaviour.
For this reason even if you have rabbits of the same gender we recommend talking to your vet about neutering and how this could benefit them.🧡💛💙

We've been busy sprucing things up with the help of some of our amazing supporters. John and Vicky rewired the duck yard to make it secure again, our regular group of painters are slowly getting all the wood coated and protected. And this week Georgie and Collin replaced the leaky liner in our duck pond......🧡💙💛

We are now desperate for a bulk bag of round river pebbles to top up the duck yard surface. If anyone has contacts that could help please do get in touch.🤞

Roslyn the Sparrowhawk was found in Hathersage and taken to Park Veterinary Hospital. Vet Katy brought Ros to us after a thorough health check. He was diagnosed with substantial weakness on his left side and a lack of appetite had contributed to his overall lack of condition. Meals are currently small and often to encourage feeding and thankfully we are starting to see an improvement. Full recovery will no doubt take several months but we are happy with the small steps that have already been achieved.🧡💙💛

Barney the Tawny Owl was found by Pat and her dog Billy from Hasland Pet Supplies. Billy was sniffing in the hedgerow and found Barney not moving. Apart from a sore eye there are no other obvious injuries but Barney was extremely hungry on arrival. His strength is picking up after a few days in our care and hopefully his eye will heal nicely.

Snowy the Tawny Owlet is doing super! He's eating well and he's eyes have cleared lovely. Doesn't he look well?
(See previous Snowy posts to look at the difference).

2021 seems to be the year of the rabbit!🐇
Six wild newborn rabbit kits were brought to us by Vets4Pets in Chesterfield (Ravenside) on Friday. The vets did a fabulous job at warming them up ready for us to feed on arrival. Their bellies were very empty which suggests mum had been gone a while. The kits also have several cuts and grazes and one had a swollen head, sadly the latter hasn't survived but the 5 remaining babies are doing well so far.
