Wanted - special foster home
We are looking for a special foster home for Huey, Luey and Thimble. Huey and Luey are genetically blind and we are keeping them with us for now as Luey in particular, has a few question marks over his potential need for surgery to ensure he stays fit and well. Thimble is a wild baby bun who was handed in having been brought in by a cat and is currently too young to be neutered and being looked after by the boys.
We are looking for someone who is local, or can easily transport, to FFHQ in Solihull and who has lots of time to spend with three very special rabbits. The accommodation needs to be very secure for a very small bun with lots of enthusiasm and space for two lads to get exercise! The boys are very quick at getting to know their surroundings; it does sometimes take a few bumps to the nose but by keeping everything in one place they soon learn to get around and are even confident out and about in the FF garden.
If you think you might be able to help please give Jo a call on 07737 218035 - she'd love to hear from you. Thank you.

All I want for Christmas ...
All I want for Christmas is my four front teeth!
We are inviting everyone, not just our Fat Fluff friends but anyone's friends friends who would like to, to join us in the challenge of filling the bunny barn with Christmas decorations.
At Fat Fluffs we are seeing an ever increasing number of bunnies with dental issues – Toothy Bunnies.
Sometimes we are able to resolve dental problems through a change in diet or by tooth extraction but for some bunnies, such as Arnold and Pippin, neither is currently an option so they have to have monthly trips to the vets for them to be filed down.
It currently costs around £20 per visit to the vets for a bun to have their front teeth filed but it’s the stress of the repeated journeys that takes its toll. If Fat Fluffs are able to buy our own dental machine, despite it being a high initial outlay of almost £1000, it will not only in the longer term reduce our vets bills but it will also make the experience a lot less stressful for the rabbits.
So this Christmas we are focusing on raising funds towards this much needed piece of equipment. The FSI (http://www.thefsi.org/) have sent us 100 paper Christmas tree decorations. We are hoping to sell all of these, for a minimum donation of £1 each, and hang the decorations around the Fat Fluff bunny barn. The idea of the chain is to celebrate and remember our pets this Christmas and to help raise funds for the dental machine at the same time . We're asking, for each decoration bought, that you send us the message you would like written on the back, so each one is personal, and we will then hang the decoration in the barn. 
To purchase your Christmas tree decoration please follow this link http://www.fatfluffs.com/donate/ which will give you details on how to pay and link you to our paypal account, don't forget to add your message and keep an eye on our website blog for pictures of the Bunny Barn being decorated! For further info or queries please email carrie@fatfluffs.com.

FFFF 2011!!
I know we're all trying not to think about it yet, but Christmas is getting closer which only means one thing for Fat Fluffs ... Our favourite event of the year - the Festive Fundraiser (FFFF)!
We love welcoming back old friends and adopters and meeting new faces for a cuppa and a catch-up at FF HQ. The decorations will be up in the barn and conservatory, the burgers on the BBQ, the tea urn on the boil and the sanctuary and rescue bunnies ready for lots of fuss in the garden and barn. Add to that our fundraising stalls, toys and treats for your furry friends and the ever-popular tombola.
This year's FFFF will take place on Saturday, December 3rd between 12 noon and 4pm at our Solihull HQ.
Please submit your RSVP by clicking on the following link: www.tinyurl.com/FatFluffsRSVP2011 so that we can cater for the BBQ and prepare for the number of visitors expected. Thanks!
Looking forward to seeing you on December 3rd - make sure you put it in your diary!
