We are reminding you that we will be CLOSED on SATURDAY JULY 4TH 2026.

We will return with normal bussiness hours on Monday July 6th 2026.

Please have all medication orders in by June 26th so we can ensure we have them before being out of office.
Please have all food orders in by June 25th at 3pm as the last delivery day before the holiday will be June 29th/30th and will not be delivered again until July 13th/14th.

Tips for the holiday weekend:
*Leave them at home
*Keep gates and doors shut at all times
*Plenty of water and shade
*ID on the pet and microchips current

*Watch hot grills
*DO NOT TAKE PETS TO FIREWORK SHOWS! This can cause more stress on the pet and if they get loose you run the risk of others getting hurt and not finding your pet!

Apoquel and Apoquel Chewable may increase the chances of developing serious infections, and may cause existing parasitic skin infestations or pre-existing cancers to get worse. Consider the risks and benefits of treatment in dogs with a history of recurrence of these conditions. New neoplastic conditions (benign and malignant) were observed in clinical studies and post-approval. Apoquel and Apoquel Chewable have not been tested in dogs receiving some medications including some commonly used to treat skin conditions such as corticosteroids and cyclosporines. Do not use in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs. Most common side effects are vomiting and diarrhea.

Please leave the bunnies alone! If they are injured please call the ODNR- 800-945-3543

LEAVE THEM BE!!

It's the time of year that our wildlife hospital starts getting calls regarding rabbit nests. Unfortunately, rabbit moms sometimes place their nests in areas that are not ideal. In addition, many times the mom will not find a nest if it is moved. The best option is to leave the babies in the nest where they were found so that mom and continue to raise them until they are independent.

Eastern cottontail babies are left alone for most of the day with mom only spending time at the nest to feed them around dawn and dusk. Many finders are concerned they are abandoned, but most of the time this is not the case! If the babies are not looking emaciated, dehydrated, covered in insects, or lethargic then there is no cause for concern. Steps can be taken to determine if they are truly abandoned. To do so, place a few pieces of twine or lightweight twigs over the nest in a tic-tac-toe pattern & leave the area for 24 hours. If the twine has been moved after 24 hours then mom has come back to feed the babies. If not, please call your local wildlife rehabilitator for help! Also, if the babies are the size of a tennis ball or larger, eyes open, & ears up, they are actually independent & do not need mom's care anymore! While they may still utilize the nest for shelter, they are old enough to care for themselves.

Eastern cottontail babies are EXTREMELY high stress, therefore keeping them with mom, if possible, is even more important! Stress can be lethal to rabbits, so minimal human interaction is critical. The stress of rehabilitation is worth it if babies are truly orphaned, but babies should not be removed from a mothers care unless the finder is sure that mom is gone. Hand-feeding of babies should not be attempted, as their digestive systems are very sensitive and require specialized formula which is not found in stores. NEVER feed baby rabbits kitten milk! If a baby is truly orphaned, ALWAYS take it to a wildlife rehabilitator for care.

Please give Cedar Run a call at 856-983-3329 x107, or your closest rehabilitator, a call to discuss ways to live harmoniously with a rabbit nest in your yard, even if you have dogs. We are happy to provide advice to give these babies the best chance possible at a happy and healthy life!
