BACKGROUND:
Benjamin was found wondering in a park by KathyH. (around May 2014). She fostered him for one week and then was adopted out. The adopted family gave Benjamin up about a year later.... and was back at the rescue. Kathy had started to help at the rescue and then found another abandoned rabbit, Jolene. This time she adopted Benjamin to keep!
Full story from Kathy: "This is Benjamin a few months old in May 2014. Myself and 3 EBRR volunteers took 4 hours to rescue him from wasteland near a trail. According to neighbours he had been there for almost a week - it was 104 degrees, he had sunburned ears and he was covered in ticks! :-( Reluctantly we had to give him up after a short foster and he was adopted through the rescue... but then a year later was surrendered back. So, in May 2015 we found we were in a position to adopt him and he has been part of our family ever since! We attempted to find him a forever friend several times but he seemed more content being a confirmed bachelor... that is until he met his darling Darla. It truly is a happy ending... or for the cute couple, a happy beginning" - Picture at top left.
