The Importance of Vaccinating Your Rabbit: Protecting Against Myxomatosis and RHD 1 and 2
In this episode, Fiona, also known as The Bunny Coach, discusses the importance of vaccinating rabbits against Myxomatosis and Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease (RHD) Types 1 and 2. She explains that these man-made diseases, originally meant to control wild rabbit populations, now pose a threat to domestic rabbits worldwide, even those kept indoors. Fiona details how these diseases spread and the severe symptoms they cause, emphasizing the urgency and effectiveness of vaccination. She also advises consulting rabbit-savvy vets or researching online for the latest vaccinations available in your country, and highlights the convenience of combination vaccines like the ‘three-in-one’.
