i went to get some food for the buns today, i wish there were pet shops with no animals in then :cry: ,

and i walked past two ladies who had bought a bunnie each (mum and daughter) well and they were asking the vet receptionist about getting there rabbits vacinated, which you would have thought was a good thing! but when the receptionist said she would book them in now to have both vacs done, i interupted them to mention they can not be done at the same time, the daughter then proceeded to ask me what to have done first only her rabbit died of mysi 18 months ago and wanted to know if her hutch would be ok, when i told her no after reading phils topic saying it remains in the soil for 4 years actually i am not sure its the same for mysi but i would not put a rabbit in a hutch where the former rabbit had died of mysi!!!!(who long if at all does mysi stay in the area?) and that the vacination would not be effective for two weeks , she did not buy a new hutch and said thank you and walked out of the shop!!!!

why oh why do these people not find out thins stuff in the first place! and if possibly poutting an eight week old baby rabbit at risk!

Myxi is transmitted through blood sucking insects so the hutch should be ok, i kept williams indoor cage think its vhd id be more worried about as its transmitted through clothes,shoes so if the rabbit had died of that id prob throw the hutch away
 
ok i was wrong then :oops: :oops: :oops:

i just dont like the idea of these horrible diseases they scare the hell out of me especially with poor phils situ!
