SHERMAN
In 2019, a supporter of the Woodstock Sanctuary found Sherman just outside of a live-kill market, where animals are crammed into cages before being killed at a young age. The animal lover removed Sherman from immediate danger, then reached out to us for help. Some of our dedicated caregiving team rushed to the aid of this brave rabbit. Caregivers were heartbroken by all Sherman had gone through, as they quickly administered urgent medical protocol. They performed a health diagnostic, immediately testing Sherman for the diseases and parasites that often result from this severe level of mistreatment.

Sherman spends his time hopping through the grass, digging in the dirt, and bonding with his friends Leah and Isabel. Sadly, Isabel passed away in 2022, but Sherman is still in the company of his friend Leah. After experiencing the filthy, crowded, and inhumane conditions of a live-kill market, we’re so happy that Sherman can live peacefully beside Leah in their very own section of the clean, comfortable, and safe rabbit barn.
