Hey up,
We took Nora and Walter to the vets today for the first time for their Mixi jabs. Walter wasn't too scared, although he's a wiggly rabbit so wasn't too keen on being held. Nora is normally the more confident of the two, but putting her in her carry case she looked petrified. She sat legs splayed out and head down the whole car journey and was breathing quite fast
After she'd had her injection we just let her go and she had a bit of a hop around the floor and then squished herself up in a corner and looked all scared again.
They're back home and in their hutch now with lots of presents coz I feel bad. But is there anything we can do to make their trip back in 2 weeks for VHD any less stressfull?
They're not used to being handled, which we are working on. But they havn't been handled for about 1 and a half years (or for their whole life) so they're taking their time getting used to it.
