8 June – Rabbit vaccination day

It was fantastic to meet so many rabbits and their owners on our Rabbit Vaccination Day last week. We are delighted to have protected 53 rabbits from RVHD1, RVHD2 and Myxomatosis!

Thank you to everyone who booked an appointment. Vaccinations not only protect your rabbit from these fatal viruses but they also help to prevent the spread of the disease.

Keep an eye out on our website for our next rabbit event!

We rely on your donations to help animals like Topsy.

When Topsy arrived with us, he was severely underweight and needed a lot of care. We couldn't help the amount of animals we do without your support. Please donate to help more animals get the care they deserve.
