Rabbit Noticeboard....

Warren Scout
Hi :wave:

I work in a veterinary surgery and have been asked to do a rabbit noticeboard, I have sections in diet, housing, vaccines, worming/flea treatments, neutering and insurance.

Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to what else I could include :) ?

Ps. pictures of your buns houses etc would be made welcome, as Im intrested in steering our people away from the 'normal' hutch in the garden...bigger is better !

Thanks x
 
OOh!! How great.

I think it would be great to talk about rabbit needs and preferences such as living with a mate, bonding advice, what food you can give them from the country side, that kind of thing too.

Good luck with it.

If I can work out how to use photo bucket, I will send you pics of my buns enclosures
 
You could include a section about bonding and the importance of keeping animals in pairs or groups. You could also include statistics regarding the number of rabbits in rescue each year, 35,000 I believe but someone running a rescue will be able to confirm. Cover life expectancy and annual costs of upkeep. Hope this helps, good luck.
 
I would suggest having a look through our rabbit care sections especially the stickies there is some great info there :D
 
Thanks everyone :D

Will be trying to include most of your suggestions ! but I do only have limited space :( I think I could take over the full waiting room with rabbity things :lol:

Hope you figure out photo bucket bungle bunny :D as I would like to get the message across about bunny housing, when I tell people that most hutches sold in pet shops are not adequate size for a bunny, then go on to tell them that i have a free range house bunny, they look at me as if im a crazy person :shock:

Was thinking of mailing some rabbit rescues to see if they had any leaflets/posters that I could display will also ask about statistics as you suggested loulou84 :thumb:

any pictures of your buns would be greatly appreciated :D x
 
It might be worth pming Sky-O as she put together a fabulous display board for her local RSPCA and she used many photos etc from RUers!
 
Would love to see Sky-O's display as Im starting to get myself in a bit of flap :oops:
Theres just so much stuff i feel people should know and not enough space !

Thanks loulou84 :) i dont have a printer to print them atm...will have to invest in a new one !
