Hiya. It's me mithering again, Sorry!!
Just wondering whether or not to have Charlie vaxinated?! Been thinking about it for a while (only had him a month or so!! lol) I was going to have it done as soon as I got him, but my (bunny owning/breeding) friend strongly advised me not to, and that all her vaxinated buns have died a long time before un-vaxd ones!! Please Help!!
 
yep I would get him vaccinated. My bunny has had both Myxi and VHD jabs and was fine after both. I don't actually see a reason for not vaccinating your bunnies to be honest :?
 
All mine are vaccinated, I would never forgive myself if they caught something that could be prevented by a jab.
 
Having seen a friends pair of rabbits die from Myxi (they were unvacinated and live round the corner from me) I would definitely say vaccinate. Mine have been vaccinated all their lives with no ill effects. I couldn't live with myself if I didn't and then one of them had such a gruesome death.
 
Absolutely vaccinated. I have a 6 1/2 and a 6 year old bunny and both have been vaccinated from about 8 weeks old and have no health problems whatsoever.
