Sunday Selfies

This is me up at my favourite woods But I am sad because I won't be able to go there for a while.In Fact I won't be going anywhere there are wild rabbits for a while because Rabbit Viral Hemorrhagic Disease type 2 has finally made it's way to the southwest of England with confirmed case in a pet bunny at a place called Teignmouth here in Devon.I am Vaccinated for the original type 1 version and Myxomatosis but not the new mutation of RVHD type 2.Mummy say's our vet has it on order but it has to come from Germany under Special Licence as it is not yet offically approved for use in the UK but it is currently going through the process for UK approval but it takes time.But mummy has said when the vet gets it in I will be vaccinated but it is going to be a little wait and expensive could be as much as £100 UK pounds but the vet won't know exactly till it comes in and the could be a couple of months as they have only ordered a small amount.The more Vets order the cheaper it is but as the vets don't know who many bunny owners will want the new Vaccine they don't want to comit to the larger dose packs because it only keeps for a certain length of time.We will keep you posted.

  18. You look very handsome even though you say you're frowning.
    I'm sorry you have to curtail your adventures, but hopefully it won't be for long and you'll be vaccinated soon. Can you go in your yard, or are their wild bunnies in your neighborhood?

  25. You are looking so very handsome today, Speedy. Best to be on the safe side and stay away until you can get protected by that vaccine. We hope other bunnies there will be as lucky as you.

  27. Yikes, that disease sounds very scary, Speedy! Stay away from those woods for a while, okay?

  28. That's sad that your movements are restricted. What I don't understand is that this medication is allowed in Germany and not in the UK ? I mean bunnies are everywhere the same and have the same diseases !

    ReplyDelete
  29. Great selfie today Speedy! I'm so sorry about that bunny disease but hopefully as soon as your vet has the shots, you can have yours and be SAFE. Meanwhile I'm sure your Mom will keep you entertained by visiting some safe spots near you for your walkies.

    Love, Sammy
