Rabbit rescue targeted by TRAs

I saw Rosie Duffield tweet about this the other day. A charity that rescues rabbits has been coming under attack from TRAs. I'm not entirely sure what their 'crime' is; I think it's to do with an account they have followed. Which makes them actual Nazis of course 🙄

This is their X account. They (and the bunnies) could do with some support

They have quoted that bunnies do not care about pronouns. This might be enough to make TRAs say that bunnies and their rescuers are total Nazis.

Wise words Kucinghitam.
Who knows if the individual even identifies as a bird in the first place?

peachescariad · 03/06/2025 12:09

Am now following them on FB. Thanks to the TRA for bringing to our attention...... lots of attention 😆

But what even is a Goose or a Gander anyway? How can anybody tell, when sex is such a complicated spectrum of a constellation of myriad features of infinite variability? Grin

I’m really missing the ‘funny’ reaction today 😂

katmarie · 03/06/2025 15:14

I'm wondering if we can weaponise this nonsense. Are there any other small charities out there needing a circulation boost, who could perhaps 'accidentally' piss off a TRA nutter, and trigger a pile on? We could really do some good here 😂

NotAtMyAge · 04/06/2025 21:08

Just to say the bunny rescuers have just posted on Twix that they've received nearly £5.5K in donations in the last 3 days. I've also seen posts from people who are now monthly subscribers. I do love a happy ending. 😊

Rabbits 1 - TRAs 0

I appear to have understated the score.

Rabbits 9,000 - TRAs 0

On X the original charity (Carrot Cottage) said another charity has now had issues through supporting them. I cannot see how to link in but it's the Tranquil Rabbit Sanctuary. This charity has posted, "If you hate certain other people who follow this channel then kindly add comments to their posts directly.
Please don't use my long eared children as a proxy battleground for your contests with others who have different political views to your own. This is simply a rabbit sanctuary, nothing more.
For 8 years I've kept this operation running on my modest life savings, but those savings have now all gone and I'm purely reliant on the kindness and generosity of people who genuinely care about the wellbeing of these innocent little rabbits, I'm relying on all of you for help.
These buns desperately need all the financial help possible and if I lose half of my already small following, then that's it, the end of this sanctuary. And what will become of the buns ? Well, there's nowhere else for them to go, they're all here in the first place because no one else wanted them.
From those here who're now 8 years old, through to those only a few months, and those I adopted, brought home and hand reared with milk from teat-pipets and syringes because their mother had died. What will happen to them if you continue causing people stop following us.
Euthanasia, that's what... because there's simply nowhere else for them to go.
Is that what you want ?
And the two of you four (you know who you are) who've contacted me more than once in the past to ask my advice on matters relating to rabbit behaviour and medical issues, why have you suddenly turned on me, turned on the little ones here ? "

Well I can't comment on something if there's nothing to see.

Don’t worry, you don’t need to comment on everything!

CassOle · 05/06/2025 08:39

Bloody hell, these acitvists have one great big axe that they mindlessly grind away on. Sod the bunnies, someone followed someone on X that I don't approve of!

I hope that Tranquil Rabbit Sanctuary is also sent donations and support.

Saucery · 05/06/2025 08:47

Reminds me of the bin fire that was hand dyed yarn a few years ago.

CruCru · 05/06/2025 09:17

Hand dyed yarn? How on earth was that controversial?

I feel like Blocked and Reported need to cover this, it’s absolutely barking (sorry bunnies). Glad it turned out well for the good people at Carrot Cottage!

Saucery · 05/06/2025 09:34

It also branched out into witch hunts against people perceived not to be paying the correct amount of adoration to the TRA cult. Livelihoods were ruined, in an industry mainly populated by women.

Such lovely oppressed people who just have to bully and attempt to shut down small, volunteer run, animal welfare organisations.

The cruelty and spite of TRAs knows no bounds. No care or consideration for the animals that will be impacted by their sheer nastiness. Repulsive individuals.

Tiswa · 05/06/2025 09:42

I followed Carrot on Facebook before all of this and rabbits are such a mistreated animal anyway it makes me so angry that they simply don’t care about anything else

Rabbit rescue is a fairly close knit world of people knowing each other and supporting each other to do what is a thankless task

I've read something about the Kate Davies issue before. So much for the apparently innocuous activity of knitting in a community. For years it's attracted a toxic morass of hateful activism that seeks to ruin people's livelihoods if they put so much as a toe out of line.

Thankfully it looks as though Kate's business is still thriving.

They are getting some Bunny Luv now!

"Hi everyone. Thank you all for reacting to the attacks on me and the buns. I'm overwhelmed, never dreamed of receiving so many kind messages and comments. I fully intend to reply to all of you, but it'll take me a bit of time. You're all bright souls, thank you all !"

The Bunnies account might also have been targeted or be about to get targeted?

Extraordinary! LATSOT was blocked by Edinburgh Zoo (!!!) for reminding them that animals are male or female!
