SPRINGVALLEY'S RABBITRY WEBSITE

*NOTICE*
Hi, my name is Caitlin Newberry and I'm Karen's (this website's owner) daughter. I'd just like to let everyone know that the site will no longer be updated because my mom died last august 10th 2005. Its a long story and all and this isnt the place to tell it. If you'd like to talk to me about anything, bunnies or not, feel free to email me at sailorwigglytuff@hotmail.com or caiterz@gmail.com. Thank you for your interest in Spring Valley Rabbitry.
