WELLNESS

We advise that all pet rabbits be brought in annually for a checkup. This is a wonderful approach to building rapport with us while your bunny is still healthy. Our veterinarians advise that until rabbits reach “middle age,” they should have an annual physical examination. Older rabbits should see us more often, but we will give you a guideline based on how healthy they are and how they act. Rabbits are at risk of parasites like fleas, ticks, and mites. Preventative treatments can help keep these pests at bay. A balanced diet is essential for rabbit health. Owners should choose high-quality hay, fresh vegetables, and limited amounts of pellets that meet their rabbit’s nutritional needs. Rabbits need exercise to stay healthy and maintain a healthy weight. Owners should provide opportunities for their pets to run, jump, and play. Overall, the health care of rabbits involves a combination of preventative measures, regular check-ups, and prompt treatment of any health problems that arise.
