Baby rabbits dumped in alleyway will live happily-ever-after

Six baby rabbits found in a box in a Ruislip alleyway will live happily-ever-after thanks to a mum on the school run.

The tiny creatures, now just six weeks old, were rescued by RSPCA animal welfare officer Tracy Deamer after a call from a worried parent dropping her children at school who found the cardboard box in an alleyway in Hatherleigh Road, Ruislip Manor.

Inside the box were Cinderella, Rapunzel, Aladdin, Sinbad, Jasmine and Pocahontas, who are looking for their Disney-style happy ending.

The four white and two black rabbits are now in a foster home and will be rehomed in pairs.

If you think you might be able to give a pair of furry friends a home keep an eye on the RSPCA Middlesex website www.rspca-middlesex.org.uk where they will appear once they are ready for rehoming, call the charity on 020 8966 9688 or email info@rspcamiddlesex.org.uk.
