Dumped Bunny Rescue
This is Abigale. She's going to get worse before she gets better, so we are prepping for that.
She was a dumped bunny. PLEASE don't release domestics in the wild. They can't do it. Their bodies are just not made for it.
I'm estimating and will hope for a full recovery by Christmas. Wylee was the same - and he was a good 4 months recovery. This was her first feeding and meds dose once we got her home from the vet.
If you would like to support Abby's recovery, etransfers can be sent to Wendy@sparklelife.ca. we are not a registered charity, but if you are donating as a business we can provide a receipt for advertising sponsorship and promote and share across our platforms. Those that do contribute to Abby's recovery will receive private video updates every few days.

Mama Duck Tucks In Her Baby and Eggs
Emily is a Welsh Saxony that came to Sparkle Life with her sister, Victoria. Both 3 years old, they laid eggs together and then seemed sorted out that Emily would be the one that sits.
Originally we found them both fussing about with 22 eggs...lol We take efforts to avoid nesting. We feel that if we have room for more, we want to take in ducks in need of a gentle forever home. However, sometimes if they are sneaky enough to get away with laying a huge nest and keeping it hid - when it's discovered 'in process' we let them enjoy their natural drive and grow the flock.
After checking through and sorting out which were most likely underway - Emily was relocated to a better nest and settled in to a safe area, in her own, built-for-her brand new house, with everything she needs to grow the possible 14 babies.
One has now hatched, and after checking one egg there is movement inside, so the others are hopefully coming soon!
The dad's may be one of the 4 Runner drakes, one of the 2 Call duck or Gus - the male Saxony.

Gus the Duck - Eye treatments
Meet Gus!
Gus is a Saxony and will be 6yrs in June. He came to Sparkle Life Sanctuary a year ago. He's from a farm that treats their animals very well, where he free roamed in a healthy and active flock. The farm spared his fate of being processed into dog food and instead he will live his life out here on the pond.
He's a sweet old guy, that naps a lot, lumbers around the yard and is generally, pretty chill.
One of the new runner ducks, Patrick, is 8 months, and has decided to challenge Gus' place as leader of the flock. We've been breaking up the fighting on a frequent basis, but a few days ago, Patrick obviously got Gus in the eye and is now in the time out enclosure, and sleeping solo in a different duck house. Gus is coming in for hot compresses, snacks and antibiotics a few times a day.
Stay tuned!

Rabbit Harness & Leash Stand off
Wylee the bunny has been going outside regularly and as his confidence grows, so does his attitude..lol
I planned on sharing a cute, quick video of getting him ready and playing outside, but it turned into a full blown power struggle today.
So here is some rabbit attitude in all it's glory. It's so wonderful to see his personality shine through more and more as the weeks go on.

Bunny Breakfast for Brave & Coconut
Summer and fall meals are full of garden veggies for Sparkle Life Sanctuary bunnies.
When they came us as itty bitty sibling babies, Brave had tooth problems and Coconut had eye problems.
Now, just over a year old, they are both healthy and loving life.
Mostly loving breakfasts.

Wylee Back To Carpet - Update #8
This is a roller-coaster.... seriously. The last 2 months this Bun has caused such joy, such serious concern, and so much love.
He's great, he's struggling, he's doing better, he's getting worse, he's going to be fine.... ugh.
We've seemed to hit a wall this past week. We've gone back to the carpet. Once he developed some stability, the vinyl was ideal to build his strength. Currently, we need him on the safest surface possible - which is carpet.
So back we go....
