Please help baby Piper binky for the first time in his life!

Please help baby Piper binky for the first time in his life. As the infant runt of his family, Piper's tiny frame was somehow disabled; perhaps unwittingly crushed by his mother. Until now, Piper has been too young to withstand anesthesia -- and with a fractured spine, splayed back leg, and dislocated hip -- his life has been a sad one... only able to run & hop in dreams...๐Ÿ™please help us change all that now by visiting: www.bunnyworldfoundation.org/donate for PayPal service. To sponsor with aid of $100 or more - please call Northwood Animal Hospital at 949-559-1992. With surgery (see invoice in comments) and multiple follow-ups, Piper will require $3,000 coverage -- so that is our goal.
This little baby had a rough start in life, with nothing to binky about, and no strength to do so even if he wanted to. All it takes is enough people chipping in, and for the first time in his life, he will FLY... as an able-bodied, happy bunny โ˜บ๏ธ

๐Ÿ’•Piper is now hospitalized, and needs a loving foster home after his release. Email us at info@bunnyworldfoundation.org to host this miracle baby's recovery.

Thank you for helping us give Piper his LIFE, and for believing in the miracle of someone like Piper, whose WILL TO LIVE is stronger than his woes. The utter nobility of these beings who never feel sorry for themselves... never give up... it's astounding. We're here now to fight for the well-deserved happiness that Piper's been dreaming of.

Racing for Little Augustina

Volunteers David (seen here) and Carolyn were mobilized in response to Augustina's MEDICAL-ALERTED status at East Valley Shelter, where's she'd been suffering multiple putrid abscesses from botched spay & older injuries having gone unchecked. Rancid tissue deterioration & build-up of congealed pus throughout... (See our treatment images in comments; warning - graphic). ๐Ÿ™ To be involved in helping her, please visit www.bunnyworldfoundation.org/donate for PayPal service. She is fighting for her new life! Her will is STRONG.

Thanks to volunteers running hours-long rescue commutes for her, AUGUSTINA was pulled out of the shelter, evaluated, stabilized, and rushed from L.A. to Fountain Valley emergency Vet care that same night.

Augustina's initial emergency treatment: Clipping fur & cleaning of all wounds • Lancing of abscesses • Warm compressing • Administering injectable Torbutrol, Baytril, Metacam, Penicillin, & ORAL Azithromycin.

She’s currently on THREE antibiotics • probiotics • pain meds • Critical Care mix, & a full array of holistic treatments: echinacea, colloidal silver, turmeric, coconut & CBD oils. 

She’s receiving intensive DAILY wound flushing/lancing of abscesses with diluted Chlorhexadine - (similar example seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA9MVI6MRHg) -

and followed by Silver Sulfadiazine topical antibiotic. Augustina is scheduled to remain on this protocol for one month with weekly re-checks.

This young child is the sweetest and most tolerant soul.  Despite her discomfort, Augustina remains grateful, loving, and rewards her foster mama with ample post-treatment kisses... pulling at the heart like no other. 

Her life so far: 4-WEEK-old Augustina was brought into East Valley Animal Shelter on July 7 as a "stray" with injuries from possible attack by another animal. Her injuries advanced to aggressive abscesses, but went unnoticed, causing infection to invade her fragile body. She later endured an ill-managed spay surgery while already undermined by pre-existing infections. The outcome of so much overlooked complications is gruesome, yes... but we are determined to rehabilitate her 100%, and provide her every deserved detail of care, and a bright, pain-free future. We refuse to fail her. She's been failed quite enough.

It's possible Augustina will require a second spay surgery, but that's a ways off. Please consider joining in her recovery. We are grateful for any amount of help, and of course - once better - she'll need a new foster parent, and eventually a little bunny boy companion... and then a forever home in which to start over and never look back. If you have ever considered helping these downtrodden beings, please make the time now, and email us at info@bunnyworldfoundation.org for a foster / adoption application.

Thank you for wanting to see this youngster get all the love and care she's been denied every second of her life.

Can you help us with Beau?

>>Can you help us with Beau? Please be kind -- there is someone beyond the disfigurement who needs us, so tread softly as we seek AID toward mending this bunny we named BEAU (French for BEAUTIFUL) - dumped survivor of ghastly neglect & misdeeds by his human; you can see the outcome. Below is his estimate - Northwood Animal Hospital will take call-in support of $100 or more for him. Any size help - please click www.bunnyworldfoundation.org/donate for PayPal service. 
>>Email us to FOSTER little Beau - as that is a MOST VITAL necessity asap: info@bunnyworldfounation.org for a Foster Agreement. We can fulfill Beau's medical needs, and all else. He'll start life anew, facing only better days -- but his medical funds are needed -- and beyond that, further vet follow-up & TLC within FOSTER CARE. Once healed, we will find him his proper forever human and the all-important bonded bunny companion with whom to share love and gain further strength and faith in this life.
>>Beau was a gravely injured dumped bunny brought into Pasadena Humane & SPCA as a "STRAY" -- in addition to his gruesome head wound and botched suture attempt, he had all the maladies of a neglected & confined rabbit; fecal and urine stains, urine scalding throughout, etc..  We pulled him out and had him seen by our Dr. Roberts at Northwood Animal Hospital. Here is the rundown:
Northwood Animal Hospital (949) 559-1992
Description
•Pre-Op Exam
•Pain Management Injection (0-40 lbs)
•Anesthesia Induction 0-25 lbs
•Anesthetic Maint <45 Min.
•Anesthetic Maint Add. 15 Min
•Cardiac Monitoring-Surgery
•Pseudopterygium Repair
•Ectropion Repair
•Surgical Pack & Disposables Metacam 1.5 Mg/Ml Per Ml
Estimated Total: $1,544.00
>>Based on our similar cases, we FULLY expect the extent of his procedures, follow-up exams, and continued Rx protocol to overshoot $2,000.00. Please help if you are able, and be a part of progress from this misery into what he has always deserved...
>>Please show mercy and refrain from domestic rabbit parenthood unless able to provide proper lifelong care and love. Domestic rabbits are HIGH-MAINTENANCE, INDOOR-ONLY fragile companion animals who CANNOT EVER be left to fend for themselves - as they are helpless to do so... Without our protection within our homes, and attention to their numerous grooming & vet needs, domestic rabbits suffer horribly. Caregivers need to educate themselves on proper care of these beings... they are NOT easy pets or pets for kids... no. Rabbits require the stewardship of mature, financially stable adults.
>>For any help you can spare for Beau, we thank you...
