🐾Pet insurance or a preventative healthcare plan? 🐾

Pet insurance can cover unexpected accidents or illnesses which may come your pets way.

Preventative healthcare schemes focus on keeping your pet healthy and protected on an everyday basis.

For example, covering their vaccinations, parasite control and health checks.

🐰RHD in rabbits 🐰
🥕Rabbits are routinely vaccinated against Myxomatosis and two strains of Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease (RHD) however there is a new ‘highly virulent’ RHD strain that we would recommend covering your rabbits for. 🥕
💉This vaccine needs to be given 2 weeks after their usual vaccination. 💉
🐰We’ve managed to secure a short supply of these vaccines. 🐰
✏️If you are interested in going on our waiting list for the second vaccine, please contact the practice on 01394 385425 or [email protected]. ✏️
📖If you’d like to read more about this strain please follow the link: https://rabbitwelfare.co.uk/rvhd2-hv-faq-april-2025/ 📖

🐾Cruciate disease refers to partial or complete rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament. 🐾

The primary symptom of cruciate rupture is limping on the affected hind leg.

In most patients, this limp appears suddenly, and is such that the leg is not used at all.

As cruciate disease is usually a degenerative process, sometimes the ligament becomes gradually weaker, which may be seen as an intermittent limp or stiffness.
