Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. 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. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.
We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.
Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

It is hell isnt it!?
Yes,*hugs* I really hope things improve for you.
Things aren't too bad for me at the moment as my life is quite stress free and settled and i'm happy. I find stress a major trigger for the onset of my ocd symptoms.

Same here but the problem is I am a 'stressaholic!' Stress always seems to find me and I guess now is a bad time due to being pregnant and stressing about that

Your Rabbits are NOT at risk from VHD
They are vaccinated and as we said the other day, there is no more you can do to protect them other than confine them to a life of imprisonment in a vacuum.
Tell the OCD thoughts to

You promise? So if I touch the car mat and then touch them they would be 100% safe?

You could sit them on the car mat and they would be fine
Thankyou Jane! You have no idea how much help you are!!
I do have another worry, today I went to pets @ home and purposly did not get to close to the bunnies because I knew I would worry, anyway I brought a hanging garland for a little gift for Cookie when it is Jimbys birthday so she does not get jeleous and the casier put it against her top when she put it in the bag, because it was not wrapped, should I still use it as she may have handled the bunnies in the shop that day?
