Rabbit Awareness Week 2019

Rabbits are great animals and we along with RAW want to ensure that rabbits live a long, healthy and happy life. There is some misinformation around the care of rabbits but luckily RAW is here to lend a very helpful hand.

Rabbit Awareness Week (RAW) is an important week for rabbits. Over the past 12 years, RAW has made it the biggest and best campaign about rabbit care and welfare in the UK!

This year RAW focus is to Protect & Prevent.

Protect & Prevent

This year RAW is raising awareness around Rabbit Viral Haemorrhagic Disease 2 (RVHD2). RVHD2 is a new variant of RVHD1 and is often fatal. Many rabbits in the UK are not vaccinated against this deadly disease and are therefore at risk. This year we are asking all rabbit owners in the UK to make sure that their rabbits are vaccinated against this and other fatal diseases.

If you care for rabbits or would like to, then you should follow the link below and have a good look at the RAW website. You will be amazed by all the information and free resources that are there to help you care for your furry friends.
