Love buns on the lookout for a new home together

Hi there! We're Terence and Tabitha, a pair of one-year-old love buns looking for a new home together. We came to the National Animal Welfare Trust after being handed in to Medivet as strays We're a bonded pair and totally inseparable. Where one of us goes, the other is never far behind and we've been like that ever since we were handed into the local vet. We love snuggling, grooming each other and hopping around together. We're on the lookout for a new home where we can stretch our legs, flop in the sunshine, and enjoy all the space we need. We'd be happy either indoors or outdoors, as long as we have plenty of room and are safe from any dangers. The staff here say we're sweet, gentle, and love a calm environment where we can feel safe and loved. We rabbits make popular pets and that's not surprising as we're highly intelligent and inquisitive animals so having us in your family can be very rewarding. But, like any animal, we do need looking after properly. Feeding hay (different from bedding hay) or dried grass from pet shops should be our main food with a handful of fresh greens and a small amount of complete rabbit pellets. You'll also need to provide fresh water and change it daily. If you've got the space in your heart and home for two adorable love buns, apply to rehome us today! Email reception@ or call 0208 950 0177 (option 2) to arrange for us to meet.

Saving Hawaii's History From the Ashes, One Object at a Time

On a crystalline morning, with humpback whales leaping in the indigo waters offshore, a group of archivists, curators, conservators and volunteers gathered in a makeshift field station at the Lahaina Jodo Mission, a once-magnificent Japanese Buddhist temple compound that was largely obliterated in the wildfires of Aug. 8, 2023. They were there to take on a 'CSI'-like challenge: identifying, cleaning and cataloging the surprising array of artifacts that survived the fires, some nearly unrecognizable beneath flaking metal, scorch marks, ashes and soot. Theirs was a daunting and humbling task. On Sundays, Nancy Fushikoshi, one of the volunteers, used to come to the mission with her grandchildren to visit the three-tiered pagoda holding the cremated remains of her husband, Lane, who died 24 years ago. She would slide open the niche's doors so the grandkids could say 'Hi, Grandpa!' before lighting a stick of Japanese incense and saying a prayer. On the day wind-whipped embers turned the mission's coconut palms into torches, the Rev. Gensho Hara and his family attempted to stave off the flames with garden hoses, trying desperately to save the main temple and the pagoda, with its hand-laid copper shingled roof. The only structure to emerge unscathed was a monumental statue of the Buddha; at 12 feet tall, it was the largest such statue outside Japan. He sat serenely on his stone pedestal through it all, bronze hands folded on his lap. The pagoda's wooden shelves had collapsed in the inferno, sending the 187 metal urns housed there careening to the ground. The Fushikoshis were among the families volunteering on that recent morning, hoping that somehow curators and conservators would be able to discern the shallow engravings in Japanese of loved ones' names all but lost in charred and mottled metal. The wildfire of Aug. 8 claimed the lives of over 100 people, including five members of Hara's congregation. It displaced thousands and destroyed or damaged much of the town's historic core, with rebuilding estimated at $5.5 billion. The tragedy has resulted in increased rates of poverty, higher unemployment and skyrocketing housing costs. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
