Neither of my buns are vaccinated yet and i a looking at getting this done ASAP, however i have them both booked in for neutering on 20th March and have read that their vaccinations can make them feel a little bit under the weather. And if i get their myxi done now their VHD will be due around the same time as their op and i obviusly don't want to toally traumatise them. So my question is, do i get them neutered give them a week or so to recover and then get their vaccs done, or do i get them done now meaning they coinside with their ops? We don't live in a very rural area, never see wild buns and have never ever seen a mosquito or any type of biting insect. I have only had the buns for just over a week which is why neither of them are vaccinated. Any advise appriciated.
 
if it was me id want the jabs done and if necessary postpone the de-plumming op if the vet recommended it :)
 
I was thinking of possibley getting their myxi done this week, keeping the de-plumming on 20th and then when they go back for their post op check getting their VHD done. Dones it have to be exactly 2 weeks after the myxi you get the VHD done or at least 2 weeks?
 
I'd personally have them Myxi jabbed now, neutered in a couple of weeks, then VHD a week after that, assuming they have recovered well from the op. I guess vets and people vary, maybe ask you vet what they advise.

the two weeks is a minimum :)
 
They are booked in for their Myxi at 6pm on manday then they will have their VHD a week after their op. £12.50 per vaccination. I'm going to be skint :lol::lol:
