Vaccinations

Vaccination

Vaccinations play a crucial part in protecting your precious pet. We believe prevention is better than cure. Some diseases have serious consequences and even mortality for your pet, and there is no medical treatment for certain viral diseases, but this can be prevented by regular vaccinations. Vaccinating your pet is part of responsible pet ownership and it is much cheaper than needing treatment for preventable diseases in the future.

Rabbit Vaccinations

Rabbits should be ideally vaccinated at 10-12 weeks of age with a booster vaccine 4 weeks after. This vaccination prevents against rabbit viral hemorrhagic disease (calicivirus). RHDV1 and RHDV (K5) is the strain of rabbit virus released in Australia for controlling the wild rabbit population. This is a deadly disease in your pet rabbits that can be prevented with a 6-monthly booster vaccine.
