We're thrilled to announce that we have a brand new web site! All of the great content from our old site is here, along with lots of updates, more info, advice, and, of course, our wonderful bunnies!
Here are a few of the new features we think you'll love:
- Our All About Bunnies section, which features everything from the basics every first-time-bunny-slave should know, to detailed information about lots of health and behavior topics. Check it out! It even has some great videos, a list of bunny-safe veggies, and lots lots more.
- More info on every available bunny. Many bunny profiles even feature video!
- A fun bunny stuff area, with all the cute bunnies, silly videos, and various other stuff everyone needs to look at when they are in need of cheering up.
- Coming soon: A new "bunnies in the spotlight" feature, more health and behavior pages, updates on our barn sale (coming this spring!), a "donations in action" area where you'll be able to see how your help directly affects the bunnies...and lots more.
- Tell us what you think! Visit our guestbook to give us feedback, request answers to your pressing bunny-related questions, or suggest new features and content for our site.
Thanks to Tamara Adlin, founder of FellSwoop, for spending tons of her off-work time helping to make our site easier and more fun to use!

Boarding For The Holidays
 If you're going out of town for the holidays your bunnies can bunk with us, at our "guest" accomodations in Gig Harbor or Carnation.
Here's one of our boarders, relaxing on a new friend he met during his stay at Rabbit Haven. All our boarding bunnies get personal attention and, if they need one, a teddy bear. (And yes, we're letting him keep it)."
While you're away, trust that your bunnies are being well cared for. Your bun(s) will receive loving, hands-on care in a rabbit-friendly environment. They will munch on fresh timothy hay, salad and pellets daily. Safe, outdoor playtime is available, weather permitting.
If your bunny is older or ill, we are better prepared than most housesitters to care for them in your absence and are very comfortable administering fluids or medications.
It's just $10 per day for one healthy rabbit, $15 per day for two. Sick rabbits are a little more, due to the extra attention they receive.
We at Rabbit Haven are happy to care for your rabbits. Their needs are our top priority while their "folks" are away. To inquire or arrange boarding services, contact Angie: Cell: (206) 351-2637, email:angie@rabbithaven.org

New Arrivals
These are our latest arrivals. You can find out more about them on our website.
 Bandit - This cutie was surrendered when his family had to leave the country. He's 8 years old but still very active and curious (see another picture of Bandit in this newsletter's header). Do you have a mature girl bunny looking for a new BFF?
Lydia - Is a Teresa baby, returned after 5 years when her family didn't have time for her anymore. She's a little shy but a real sweetheart when she warms up.
 Samson - This guy is a real trooper! He came to us in a lot of pain from abscessed teeth and in poor health from being fed catfood. It took a couple surgeries and a healthy diet to fix him up but he's doing great now. Since he'll have ongoing teeth issues he'll stay here with us, but we love having him around.
