Aliena

After a tragic accident, Aliena came to Rocky Mountain House Rabbit Rescue as an emergency intake. Despite receiving immediate medical care, she is likely to remain permanently paralyzed from nerve damage!

But if you asked Aliena, she probably wouldn't focus on what she's lost.

Today, she is starting to move around her pen more and is reminding everyone that joy isn't defined as perfection ... it's defined by the spirit to keep going.

Her journey requires ongoing, dedicated care. Our medical team expresses her bladder up to twice a day as needed. She is undergoing physical therapy and will get acupuncture treatments as needed to help support her mobility. Every day is a team effort, and every day Aliena reminds us why it's worth it.

She reminds us that strength isn't measured by the obstacles we face, but by our determination to keep moving forward despite them. She has never let her circumstances define her, and neither should we
