Check out The Boho Buns socials, links, and information about disabled buns. She has lots of great information!
The benefits of the herbs are listed below but wanted to share The Boho Buns story, and she inspired us.
These three rainbow buns, and their incredible human showed people that just because a bun has special needs or a disability, they deserve to live life to the fullest. Not to give up on them. These buns may not of had the best start to life, but before crossing got to experience a life filled with love.
As a rescuer and a bun parent myself, I have also endured the hardships of rainbow bridge buns. Within 1 year I had lost 3 of my rabbits. I (Bunny_Girl87) related to The Boho Buns story.
Pierre, Ophelia, and Nova's Story
Nova was rescued in 2020 from a Facebook ad from a breeder as he was returned after being in a previous home for 6 years. It was hard for him to find a new home as he was older, had eye issues, and was deaf. He was not neutered but fell in love with Luna the bun. He passed away on Valentine's Day 2021. His passing was believed to be due to not being neutered in combination with his previous terrible diet and his disabilities. His time in a wonderful home was short but filled with endless love.
Pierre was found paralyzed in a pile of trash and brought to a rescue where he gained some more strength before being adopted. He was filled with love, and had so much love to give, he joined his fellow bun mates and bonded with 3 other buns. Pierre crossed the rainbow bridge on November 7th, 2022
Ophelia was found on a Craigslist ad in 2021. She was being neglected in a hutch in North Carolina. Ophelia had a splayed leg and was getting no extra care for it. She was bonding into a quad of buns. She developed a head tilt. Ophelia crossed the rainbow bridge on April 17th, 2023.
Bunny_Girl87 (Krystin's Story)
Cassie was a gorgeous Rex bun abandoned outside her home when her family moved and hopped across the street. My friend was contacted and we went to get her. She had the longest nails Id ever seen, so long that when I picked her up, one completely broke off. Once trimmed it took her days to realize she can move without pain. She had stasis so I rushed her to the vet. Once treated, I asked if it was possible if she had E.C. They sent me home with meds just in case. The next morning I found her slumped in her water bowl. She has lost the use of one side of her body. Rushed her immediately to the vet. She was crashing and the outcome wasn't looking good. I held her as she crossed the rainbow bridge.
A few months later I was working on a shelter case of 18 rabbits trapped in a hutch used to train hunting dogs. The first bun I met was Neo. A big two-toned chocolate American Sable. He gave me a kiss and well, I melted. I decided that he was family and adopted him. A week later I noticed something was really off. I drove him to the vet and was so close but it was too late. He crossed the bridge in my arms.
My bun Arya, Reese's first bun wife unexpectedly passed away. Arya was a sweet and silly Holland lop. She showed no signs that anything was wrong. I went out to dinner for 2 hours and came home, saw her "flopped". I though aww, but it wasn't. Reese was sitting next to her and she passed away. My stepsister saw her an hour before I got home and said she was zooming around.
I got Reese a bun friend because he was becoming depressed. Did matter how much attention and love I gave, he missed her. I got him a lop friend and when introduced it was instant love. It took me almost 2 years to be able to foster again.
We wanted to create treats that benefit disabled buns. A treat that is more than just yummy, but has lots of benefits for them as well. Of course, these treats and forage mix is great for any bun, but the disabled buns deserve something special too!
Rosemary: treats arthritis, preventing heart disease, aids in digestive health, and even helping in the prevention of some tumorous cancers.
- Dandelion Leaf: promotes digestion and good respiratory health. They are also a natural body tonic that provides benefits to the entire body. Also, high mineral and vitamin contents help strengthen the immune system and prevent infections, reducing pain and inflammation in rabbits.
