We are seeing a lot of wild rabbits with Myxomatosis at the moment, which is a contagious and fatal disease.

🐇 If you find a wild rabbit with signs of myxomatosis (usually swollen/shut/discharging eyes is what people notice first) PLEASE call us first to arrange to bring the rabbit to our back door where we can humanely euthanase it with minimal risk to the rabbits in Pets at Home and our clients rabbits.

🐇 Ensure your own pet rabbits are up to date with vaccinations - Myxomatosis is fatal in almost every case and the only protection is annual vaccination. We are trying our best to prioritise appointments for rabbit vaccines but availability is limited at the moment, so we advise booking boosters with as much notice as possible.

Rabbit-lovers will know that there is nothing bunnies love more than to have a good old munch on fresh plants. Not only is chewing a great boredom buster for rabbits, but fibrous plants can also help to support their dental and digestive health.

The results of our survey involving 5 UK rescues are showing a sad trend. Compared to the first quarter less rabbits were taken, less were rehomed and more were turned away. People are still breeding, not neutering their pets, buying from pet shops and breeders without the commitment. It has got to a point when rabbits are found dumped outside every day!
If 754 rabbits were turned away by 5 rescues so far this year, imagine the real numbers of unwanted rabbits in this country, those who can't be helped, those who are abandoned or given away for free to end up in the wrong hands.

Pet shops are a huge issue because people walk in and buy a fluffy pet, like they would a box of chocolates. Our petition to the UK government did not receive the attention it deserved. The problems are now getting worse so we can't give in.

UK Residents, please take a few minutes to write to your MP and ask them to support a ban on the sale of pets in shops. Kittens and puppies are no longer sold in shops thanks to Lucy's Law, we want the same for rabbits and other animals. No animal should be displayed in a shop like a product and bought on a whim by whoever wants one.

For info - This is the petition which is now closed but it shows the poor response received from the government.

Please message us if you get a positive response from your MP.



Thank you to the rescues who are taking part in this survey, The Rabbit Residence Rescue Fluffy Butts Rescue Baby Blue Bee Bunnies Little Furries Rabbit Rescue Stanmore Ivy Dene Rabbit Rescue, all doing their best given the circumstances. There is only so much they can do.
