Rabbits are affectionate creatures who enjoy spending time outdoors. It is vital to ensure that your rabbit receives their yearly vaccinations for their well-being.
Certain viruses pose a significant threat to pet rabbits, including myxomatosis and both strains of rabbit haemorrhagic disease (RHD1 and RHD2). Vaccinations for rabbits provide protection against these potentially fatal infections, helping to ensure a longer, healthier, and happier life for your pet. Keeping your rabbit safe with the appropriate vaccinations is key to their overall welfare.

Fortunately, a yearly vaccination can protect your bunny from potentially fatal infections, ensuring that your rabbit receives the best possible defence against these illnesses.
Rabbit vaccinations are quick and straightforward, and your rabbit will first undergo a thorough health examination. This is a vital opportunity for the veterinarian to identify any apparent health issues that may be developing, to address any concerns you may have regarding your pet, and to ensure that you are well informed about how to care for your rabbit.
Scheduling your annual vaccination appointment is essential for the health and well-being of your rabbit. If you need any additional information about rabbit vaccinations, please contact Peak Vets, your local veterinarian.
Why do you need Rabbit Vaccinations?
Like people and other animals, rabbits are susceptible to infections and environmental pathogens. Spending time outdoors can increase their risk of contracting viruses that may threaten their long-term health.
Rabbit vaccinations were previously administered as two separate injections, but they are now available as a single injection. It is important to vaccinate your rabbit annually for optimal protection.
This vaccination helps prevent both viral haemorrhagic disease and myxomatosis. Unfortunately, both illnesses have high mortality rates and are often fatal, highlighting the critical importance of vaccinating your rabbit.
