Mischief and Tinker's Mum
Wise Old Thumper
I never felt happy with my origional vets as they still used cylap for the vhd vaccinations and had never heard of lapinject never mind anivac! When my buns had their first myxi jab there, if I remember rightly, the vet didn't even health check them first, at the time i didn't know that this wasn't the norm. :?
So for the vhd jabs they went to another vets, who were better and used lapinject, but I never really trusted them as after burring mischief's teeth every month, they never ntoiced his molar spur coming through. :?
Soooooo, I wanted to find a new vet for that reason but also somewhere cheaper too! I found out about another vet center which only costs £12.70 per myxi vaccine! I was thrilled thinking it was great but was very worried in case it was cheap for a reason like they didn't give it right or didn't health check....
But went today and I have never been so impressed with a vet center!!!
First impressions were great, went into the waiting room which was very nicely set out with different seating areas so that dogs weren't near cats and rabbits etc. There was a lot of things for sale including bunny things where as it's usually only cat and dog items on display. :roll:
I then saw a massive "Rabbit Awarness Week" display with loads of info on neutering, vaccinating, fly strike protection, companionship and housing. There was also many rabbit leaflets on display for people to take.
Then we went in to see the vet. She was lovely and we were in there for almost an hour!! :shock: She asked me lots of questions, what I fed them and what their personalities were like.
She then vaccinated them all one by one after health checking them very thoroughly! Teeth, eyes, heart rate, and their bums too! She told us how she gave the vaccine with I can't remember but is it 10% just under the skin and the rest in the scruff? Something like that but she knew what she was doing. She told us about how vaccines should be 6 monthly and that they were getting the new anivac vacine for vhd! She told us LOADS about diet and even that we should continue trying to bond bloss with the trio because they are better in pairs or groups.
She called them all Sunshine too which I thought was sweet. She told us about her 2 rabbits and how cheeky they were and it was so nice to talk to someone bunny crazy!! :lol:
She also gave me a huggggeeee info pack, I know basically everything in it by heart :lol: But it's good to the leaflets for back up.
Then best of all.... she put us on the list for "Bunny Days!" :lol: It's where in her words "there's a day dedicated to bunnies and everyone with rabbits is invited. The lady who runs it gives out some great information and does some presentations on diet and things and everyone there is bunny mad and it's a great day out, I recommend it" So... I will get to meet lots of bunny crazy people... whooo hoooo! :lol: I will get an invitation through the post for when the next one is.
Then the price for 4 buns only came to about £48, was great! She was so knowledgeable on bunnies and I'm very happy to have found the perfect vet!
