Hello,

I am about to take Oscar to be bonded and, quite rightly, they have asked he is injected for both myxo and VHD. The person i got him from runs her own boarding so although he has had her injections she didn't get a certificate of it. She has the date but says they were done at the same time, i thought they were done two weeks apart?

Can anyone help clear this up for me please, i don't want to put Oscar or the other rabbits into any danger of infection. :(
 
I would get the name of the vet's that she uses and contact them, they would be able to let you know, one of my rescue rabbits was due for his booster but i had misplaced his vet card so i took him to the vets and told them what rescue he was from and gave his former name and the info was on their computer. The 2 injections need to be at least 2 weeks apart, my local rescue only get myxi jabs for their rabbits.
 
When we got my bun a year ago our vet did both the injections at the same time.. it wasnt until reading on here that it's not advisable.

However when we went for Munch's 6 monthly myxi I asked about VHD & they said it had to be 2 weeks apart so they must've changed their ways
