Pete the Vet: Is there hospice respite for pets? 

Studies have shown that rabbits value companionship as much as food, and it’s now seen as cruel to keep a rabbit alone.

Can you give me tips on hand-rearing kittens? We have a colony of feral cats near us and I’ve witnessed several litters of kittens being abandoned and subsequently dying. I find it so upsetting and I would like to try to rescue the tiny creatures if this happens again.
