*UPDATE* - MESSAGE FROM OWNER TARA DELISLE JOYES:
"Thank you to everyone that offered advice/services. A big shout out to Precious Rabbits Rescue and Sanctuary Society for helping by grooming him today. He is so much happier. Thank you Charlee's Angels for the Animals for your assistance."
*ADVICE/RABBIT GROOMER NEEDED* Edmonton, Alberta. This kind person got a free long-haired rabbit from Kijiji and now is stuck trying to find an experienced groomer that doesn't charge a lot. The ones who can do it want the rabbit sedated. Courtesy post for Tara (780.236.6909). ~ Charlee
"I know you primarily help relocate and find homes for cats and dogs. I am in desperate need of some help. I responded to a kijiji ad for a long haired lop rabbit, female. Turns out it is an unfixed male, doesn't really matter.
The problem I am facing is that he is so severely matted that he can barely function. He is super affectionate and gentle as can be, but as I am not a groomer, I am at a loss. I tried scissor cutting them out but they are so close to the skin that I risk hurting him. He needs a groomer badly and I cannot get one until the 20th. He will need an entire shave.
Please if there is anything you can suggest and help with, I would be extremely appreciative. Popcorn, the bunny, would be forever grateful. Thank you so much, Tara."
