Hi

Does anyone know this practice, and how have you found them to be?

I took Peaches there yesterday, and explained that she had been found being chased by foxes and that i had taken her in and wanted her checked out.

The vet seemed nice enough, checked her eyes, mouth, bottom, belly and weighed her.

I asked loads of questions which he seemed happy to answer.

However, it wasnt until i got back that I realised he hadnt mention any jabs. I called this morning and have booked her in for next monday, however I have a worried feeling that maybe they are not good enough for rabbits, as surely he should have thought of this? Can anyone confirm that they are worthy of my bunnys?! :wave:
 
I am sorry I haven't replied to you pm yet. I really haven't a clue about vets in that area. we are closer to Milton keynes and Dunstable, so not much help.
 
Hi

I don't have any experience of that vets at all but I work in Hitchin so if you ever need any help with your buns feel free to PM me. Lib n bun lives in Stevenage so might be able to recommend a decent vet local to you :wave:
 
:wave: Is Buntingford too far from you? There's a rescue in Royston which uses the Woolpack vets on the Buntingford bypass so they will see lots of rabbits - might be worth a try if it's accessible from your side of town?
 
Thanks guys

the one in Buntingford is about 18 miles, and I was recommended one in stevenage, but again its pretty far...I want a good vet but I also need to be able to know I can get there quickly in an emergency...

Do you think im right to be concerned about the vet I saw yesterday?

Definitely. I'm not a vet but if people start talking to me about their rabbits even just in a social situation I always try to get the conversation around to vaccs so a vet certainly should.
 
yeah, thought so

I'm going to change it to Roebuck in Stevenage, its just off the A1m which I am close to, and should take less than 30 mins, I think that will be fine for a good vet

Thanks!
