Thought we would take a few moments to tell you Bunny's story whom you may have seen in various places on the site.
For a kitty just over a year, she has had quite an eventful life.
Her foster mom picked Bunny and her two brothers (Peanut and Boo-Boo Face) up at the SPCA late on a Saturday in the fall of 2004. |

When the officer showed up to investigate, the mother was frightened off and to our knowledge, never returned. They were tamed almost immediately and with the foster mom at least two months.
Bunny was always delicate and would occasionally have tiny nose bleeds, although otherwise seemed healthy and definitely happy.
She absolutely adored her brother Peanut and we probably had more requests to adopt those two than any other pair we've ever had. They were adopted by a lovely girl, but unfortunately, Bunny started having grand mal seizures.

| In fact, at one point they were so severe, that it was thought best to have her put down. However, on just smelling Peanut, she struggled to go join him, and Dr. Brondwin decided she deserved a chance so every effort was made to save her. The stress and responsibility of living with a potentially frail cat for life was understandably too much for their adopter, so they came back to live with their foster mom. |

| VOKRA is fortunate to have such dedicated fosters. Although this foster mom had a new baby yet she was still willing to care for Bunny, even though little Bunny was very ill. Although initially blind and possibly deaf (who can tell if a cat's deaf as their listening is so selective anyway!), she got around just fine and spent her days playing with her brother and other foster siblings. Once the epilepsy was under control, she did just fine. |

Vancouver Animal Wellness also played a big role in Bunny's recovery, especially Julie. It is amazing how a raw food diet and homeopathic medication improved things dramatically.
