Description
Vets, Breeders and Pet Owners answer rabbit health and veterinary questions.
This group was established to help sick rabbits. An added advantage is that a lot can be learned by monitoring messages from the group. Please be aware however that this is not a general chat list and that only questions and answers relating to rabbit health issues may be posted.
As a guide, each question should relate to a particular need of a particular rabbit. Before posting, search our archives for similar postings in the past.
Please note: Advice is given free of charge by people with varying levels of expertise. It is up to you as a rabbit owner to assess whether any advice given to you is appropriate. If you are in any doubt, you should consult a veterinarian.
