Just thought i'd share this with you.....its quite amusing how daft some of the staff are at my local p@h!
The vet advised that we should start cutting our bunnies nails at home or else it could become a costly trip! so off i went to p@h to buy some nail clippers. I had to ask where they were as couldnt see them and when i told the assistant what they were for she said "ooooh you shouldnt clip rabbits nails, cause it you cut too much off they could bleed to death" Well, after i'd picked myself up off the floor from laughing i proceeded to tell her (as the vet had said that morning) that bunnies wont actually bleed to death if you catch the nerve, there will be some blood but it should stop within 5 mins.
The assistant looked at me blankly, said "oh, so you work at a rescue place as well then" then off she went to potter behind the counter - looking V embarassed, with me shouting "whats wrong with rescue places!?"
I love it when you can put shop assistants right - especially those from p@h
