Rabbit 101 WEBINAR

April 22, 2010 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM Eastern
Cost: $10.00 US

This Webinar is being hosted by Dr. Erin Harrison from the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph Ontario, Canada with guest speaker, Dr Taylor the OVC service chief. They will speaking on Rabbit 101!
Topics will include rabbit husbandry, preventative health, sign of emergencies, dental disease, imaging, and possibly advancements in rabbit medicine for approximately an hour. Then it will be followed by a question and answer period.
Both Dr. Harrison and Dr. Taylor (amongst many others) are volunteering their time so that all the funds from the webinar will be donated to Rocky. So we get to learn and Rocky gets closer to his fundraising goal. How good is that?
There may be a possibility that it will be recorded, so for those of you that cannot make it (even the ones that do) may be able to purchase the CD/DVD for later viewing or listening. Once you have paid, I will provide you with the login information (once it has been set).
Just click on the link to the left and it will take you straight to paypal!

APRIL 6, 2010


Update.....

We have raised a total of $2554.39
This is great but still a long way away.
Rocky has been on Meloxicam for a couple of weeks now and it has helped greatly. He is more active and has a great appetitie again! Hopefully, this will slow or even stop the growth of the tumor until all the funds have been raised.

The quaratine house here in Ontario, Canada has been confirmed so now Letta just has to fill out the forms and BIN will pay for the fees which is $400.00

Passports need to be aquired and then medical forms from the vet in Greece. Continental Airlines is the only airline that allows rabbits in the cabin. If anyone has points with Continental, and would like to donate them to Letta, please contact me at sequiaphil@yahoo.ca

This would help tremendously as the flight itself is expensive.

Thank you

It is with a very sad and heavy heart that I write this. Rocky left for the Rainbow Bridge earlier this evening.
He fought hard to stay with us but he could not hold on any longer.
Binky free my friend......

April 2010

Rocky is in need of surgery to save his life. He has a mediastinal mass that is pressing against his trachea and heart. Without the surgery, Rocky will die.







Rocky lives in Athens, Greece. He has seen many vets there but vets in Greece are not rabbit savvy. They will not do the surgery, nor are they equipped for this delicate type of surgery.







We will be flying Rocky and his owner to Ontario Canada, where there is a team of specialists that have been studying his case and are ready to treat Rocky.







This issue here is the cost. Not including the flight, the surgery will be about $6,000.00. We have raised $2314.08 to date. Though this is fantstic, it is not enough. We need your help. No amount is too small, even a $1.00 which is less than a cup of coffee and Tim Horton's or Starbuck's. Please consider donating so that Rocky can live a long, healthy life.







Thank you!
