A rabbit with a superstar name and an unfortunate past is looking for a home.

David Hasselhop isn't looking for freedom, but rather someone to care for him and his unusual needs - as he is missing his ears.

The cute critter recently arrived at RSPCA Northamptonshire after being rescued from a home where over 100 animals were being kept in inappropriate conditions.

Staff there believe he lost his ears when "they were nibbled off by his mother when he was young".

David is unfortunately also suffering from dental disease and is currently receiving treatment to make him more comfortable.

In his new home he needs lots of TLC after everything he's been through - plus a good diet featuring high-fibre hay - you could say this is one bunny who needs to go on hay watch!

Dental issues are common in rabbits; often caused by poor nutrition and imbalanced diets. It's important to feed rabbits the good-quality, high-fibre hay so they chew properly and wear their teeth down as they continuously grow through their lifetime.

They also need regular dental health checks. Rabbits are highly sociable animals and need company so David will be looking for a forever home with another rabbit for company. To offer him a home, please complete an adoption form: https://docs.google.com/.../1FAIpQLSdC8VUllx0J8J.../viewform

I can’t remember a time in my life when there hasn’t been pain somewhere in my body. It came to dominate much of my adult life. If somebody hasn’t been in constant pain, it’s hard to describe it to them. You’re masking the whole time, and everything is so much more difficult. The mornings were the worst for me as the throbbing and aching sensations would set in when I was lying still. The day it took me 45 minutes just to get out of bed because of the agony I was in, I knew something had to chan

Therapy horses help neurology patients regain confidence, motor skills
In an area of Rome that once hosted horse races, four horses and two ponies move at a much slower pace to help neurological patients restore their movements and confidence. With handles on the side of their saddles, the animals at the San Giovanni Battista Hospital allow some people to take their first halting steps after trauma, strokes, degenerative diseases, as well as long COVID. The hospital on the outskirts of Rome, where the city's hippodrome was once located, is the only one in Italy to use hippotherapy - which allows movements that would be harder to carry out in a gym to improve muscle strength, balance and coordination.
