A bunny in Florida is being called a “miracle” after she survived a hit and run that killed her mom and littermates.
The East Coast Rabbit Rescue in West Palm Beach, Florida shared about the bunny, Mimi, on Fakebook, saying: “This bunny is a miracle and you will learn why.”
In the post, they explain that a lady called to report a rabbit who had been hit by a car. The woman said there appeared to be some baby bunnies laying on the asphalt.
Rescuers rushed to the scene. At first, they believed all five newborn babies were dead, along with the mother rabbit.
“We did not know if she was dumped on the street with her babies or in desperation she delivered them there. It was a horrible and very sad thing to see. We could not imagine how painful their avoidable deaths were,” they wrote.
But as they started to scoop the babies up to give them a proper burial, they realized that one of the newborn babies still had some viral signs!
They said they rushed back to the rescue with her and worked to get her stable. They said they started hand feeding her, but didn’t expect her to survive.
“For our surprise she was getting bigger day after day,” they wrote.

They went on to say, “That premature baby bunny turned into a very sweet and cute girl. We named this cutie Mimi (short for Miracle). Mimi would love to find her husbun. She is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped and is very good with her litter box.”
The 3.5lb bunny is an Angora mix, so has beautiful hair that requires constant grooming. Despite her tragic start to life, the rescue said that Mimi is “in perfect health condition and now she is ready for her furever home.”
