VHD concern...

I've just picked up Splotts Girlfriend to be (hopefully- crosses everything) She's GORGEOUS :love: but I also found out that she hasnt had a VHD vaccination :?

I thought she was fully vaccinated so I didn't do any research, is it ok to put Splott in the same room as her yet or do I need to get her vaccinated first? Could he carry VHD from his vaccination somehow and pass it to her? HELP!!!

she's in a seperate room at the moment and I've washed hands between her and Splott just to be on the safe side (was going to leave her in the room alone for tonight anyway to settle after the stress of the journey and change)
 
well i put domino and pebbles together and she hadnt had her VHD, and the RSPCA told me she was okay as she had had a checkup etc, and just to get it done asap. but i might be wrong?
 
I got my second bunny a few days ago. She is vaccinated for myxi but not VHD. She only had her myxi vaccination a few days before I got her, so she will have to wait a couple of weeks before she can have the VHD one. I don't think the VHD vaccination is a 'live' virus, so your bun wouldn't be able to pass it on. That was my understanding of it anyway. Mine are together and have been since they met at the rescue center. Hope yours get on well when you introduce them :) Mine are doing ok, not best friends yet, but they don't hate each other which is a start! :wave:
