Remembering Woodstock

Holding my sweet Woodstock


This sweet boy left me two years ago today. Hard to believe it has been that long. He is and always will be in my heart. I imagine he and Cocoa are having one heck of a hopping time at Rainbow Bridge.

In Memory of My Beloved Cocoa

Cocoa beside his beloved Ruby

Cocoa left for the Rainbow Bridge sometime today in Florida.  An infection is all I know, as the news came to me through a third party, so I have no details other than this. Cocoa was 11 years old, the second rabbit I adopted. I cannot write anymore at this time as I am too devastated to write a coherent tribute. But I wanted to at least post this beautiful boy's photo. His mate, Ruby, the red-eyed white Rex in the photo above, is also 11 and, I am sure, is heartbroken as well.

The Hoppy Vegan Will Hop for Farm Animals This Fall

I am so pleased to announce that I plan to walk for the farm animals this October in Washington D.C. to  support the great work of Farm Sanctuary. I promise to wear rabbit ears to represent all the bunnies in my quest to raise at least $300 for this great cause (so far I've raised $125, thank you so much to those who have already given!) I am hoping you, my readers, whoever and wherever you are, will help. Click on the donation box in the upper right corner of this blog. $10 is all I ask to help Farm Sanctuary continue in their great work to give animals spared the horrors of the factory farm a home of peace and a full life they all so richly deserve.

You can read about this fundraising walk here http://walkforfarmanimals.org/

And be sure to visit www.farmsanctuary.org  to read the very touching stories of some of the pigs, turkeys and sheep they have saved over the years.

You all know how passionate I am about animals and how becoming vegan has been an incredible journey and transformative experience for me. While my blog focuses on rabbits since they are the animals I know best, I care deeply for all my fellow creatures on this earth.  The suffering of animals is morally abhorrent to me, and I bless in my heart all those who endeavor to alleviate the pain and agony so many animals endure every day.  But caring for farm animals is a costly thing, and Farm Sanctuary needs our help to see that they can continue to provide the care they have provided for so many lucky animals.  Please check out their website--I am sure you will agree with me that Farm Sanctuary deserves both kudos and our ongoing support to make this world a better place for the animals.  Thank you so much in advance for your support.
