Taylor's
Rehoming Centre is 20 years old this year. Our existing rabbit runs
have been there since the centre opened. Rabbits in our care
currently live in hutches in sheds and are moved out to the runs for
exercise and fresh air. This is ok but not ideal for them if they're
not keen on being handled and many of our rabbits will stay at the
centre for more than six months before they find new homes. Our
project is to meet a need we've identified to replace the existing
outdoor runs with new runs with self contained accommodation attached.
The rabbits will be able to come and go as they please using a cat
flap and so won't need to be handled to move them from cage to run
(which they're really not keen on!!). The proposed new runs will have
concrete bases and metal frames which will make them secure and escape
proof. The rabbits will have more space for exercise and enrichment
in a safe and secure environment. The new runs will be easier to keep
clean, be weatherproof and will enable us to fully meet the licensing
requirements. They will also free up staff time to help other animals
in our care and may enable us to help more rabbits than we do
currently. Our plan is to get the runs built and opened as part of the
celebration of our 20th anniversary year. With your help we can do
it!!

Branch is proud of our no euthanasia policy for healthy re-homeable animals
If you have any queries about our euthanasia policy, please get
in touch.
The Animal Welfare Act "The
Five Freedoms" As well as
increasing the penalties for those who inflict the most serious
offences, the Animal Welfare Act makes it a legal requirement for
pet owners to do what is reasonable to provide for their animal's
needs. These are: a proper diet (food and water)
