As the dog days of summer bring their heat, we thought it would be cool to have some fun.  So we've put together a newsletter with photos, links and stories sure to bring a smile. 
 

 

The Auction is moving closer to the Barn. We're setting sail  to The Green Turtle in Gig Harbor from 2-5 p.m. on Saturday, September 22.  Tickets are $45 and include a scrumptious meal. Menu options are chicken gorgonzola with garlic mashed potatoes, salad and roasted veggies or Thai seafood (which can be made with tofu for our vegan friends).  Coffee, tea and dessert are included.  Other beverages will be available for purchase.

And, of course, there will be a fabulous array of incredible items to be auctioned off.



 
Purchase your tickets now by clicking on this PayPal link  Under "donation amount" type in the number of tickets you're wanting multiplied by $45.  Be sure to write "Auction Tickets" and your meal selection(s) in the "add special instructions to the seller" box on the "please review your donation" page.


If you do not have access to Pay Pal, send a check with your meal selection to Rabbit Haven at PO Box 2268, Gig Harbor, Washington 98335.

It has been brought to our attention that there's a new reason to bring your rabbits in for annual "well pet" exams.  Many vets are so busy, they don't have time to fit in "new pet" exams in less than a week or two.  But, they do have time to see animals who are regular patients.  So, get to know your vet BEFORE an emergency arises!

 

Classic Silliness

Disapproval with a Smile

We all know rabbits are magical creatures who cast spells on our hearts.  This summer, the magic seems to be especially strong as rabbit names are taking on a fairy tale flavor.  Among the adorable adoptables at the Barn are....

Alice (from Wonderland) and Wendy (from Neverland)

Christopher Robin (from the Hundred Acre Woods)

Nessie (from Loch Ness)

Pippa and Doc (must be a friend of Snow White)

Sad to say, their life stories haven't always been fairy tales.  But, who needs a Fairy Godmother with Rabbit Haven?  Check out our website for more information about our rabbits who are waiting for their own Prince or Princess Charming.  All they need now is a Forever Home for tales that truly end "Happily Ever After."

Our last issue contained important reminders about rabbits and heat, and the dangers of fly strike.  In case you missed it, check out the Rabbit Haven website for more information about overheating and flystrike.
