Health & Veterinary Needs
House Rabbit Society advocates for the best healthcare possible for rabbits to maintain their well-being. Rabbits are notorious for reproducing quickly, which makes the issue of rabbits who in need of rescue even more critical. Therefore, House Rabbit Society encourages the spaying and neutering of house rabbits and the avoidance of adopting or rescuing orphan rabbits that you might find in your yard or in the wild.
Getting proper veterinarian care from a vet who understand the unique needs of rabbits is also crucial to a bunny’s health. A rabbit-savvy vet can help you understand the causes behind behaviors, such as litterbox mishaps. They can also give you tips on medicating your rabbit and ensuring that your rabbit is safe from RHDV2 and has vaccinations against other viruses that can cause serious illness in rabbits. A vet who specializes in rabbit care can even suggest treatments that you might never have thought would be appropriate for your rabbit, such as acupuncture!
