Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.

    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions.

That piece I wrote about rabbit hearing is now live: https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/research/groups/hearingsciences/ear-facts/hearing-in-animals.aspx Now with added hilariously-captioned pictures :D

I'll be adding a link to the RWAF at the bottom (because I forgot last night) and I might add a bit about the rabbits featured :)

Feel free to check through the rest of the site etc., if you're interested, but this isn't fully 'released' yet (it has gone public but the public haven't been told yet, not until it's finalised :lol:), and if you find any spelling, link etc. mistakes let me know :D
 
Excellent, well done !

Now you just have to get yourself to 10 Downing Street and get the Band of Muppets who’s Boss lives there to use their ears :lol:
 
That's really interesting KK, that little black & white lop looks just like my Treacle :D well done you, and thanks for sharing :thumb:
 
This is great! You covered so much in a fairly short text, and your explanations are so clear. I love the photos and the captions, too. :love:

I did find a typo: "Lop rabbits and other short-skulled breeds, including lionheads (see the brown arabbit above) and Netherland Dwarfs"
 
Amazing :love: I was half expecting a rabbit up in court for a crime committed though :lol:

LMAO, well Lopsy's the 'big' star of this piece and he's scared of helicopters, so Matt said he must've been a convict in a previous life :lol:
 
Interesting. My blue eyed white lionhead x Daisy is deaf and her ears are lopped (sometimes helicopter). Luckily she has Frosty to hear for her.
 
Update: we got feedback for the webpages from our research group's Young People's Advisory Group and they all really liked the link to the RWAF, they said it was really useful for people to go and learn more, and it was really important to include it. Which just goes to show, if you put the info out there, people can read it :D
