Jack had his VHD vaccination on Wednesday night, plus an injection for mites/worms. He seemed fine, but then last night he didn't come out all night despite the cage being open. Today, he came out for abit and had a run round. I put him back to have some hay, and then opened up his cage again, but he hasn't come out. He seems to be eating OK, as he wolfed down a chunk of carrot last night, and has eaten his pellets. He just seems abit quiet. Can the vaccination have this effect? :?

Hello,
Yes the VHD jabs can make some bunnies quieter than usual. You just have to make sure that Jack keeps eating and pooing as usual and he should perk up in a day or two. Try giving him his favourite foods to keep him eating. If hes no better in a couple of days, then might be worth a chat with the vet, but he should be fine i think.
