So sorry about your friend's rabbkits, Sos64. Thank goodness for the new vaccine with its far greater ability to offer full immunity. I've read a very promising report on the new vaccine's efficacy. As soon as that is available online, I'll post a link to it.

We have had reports about a myxi outbreak in Leeds - please make sure that your rabbits are all vaccinated, and if you know of any more outbreaks please let us know so that we can warn others. After posting this on Facebook, we had a further report of an outbreak in Barnsley The...

We know that as a member of this forum, you are a responsible owner who cares deeply and wouldn't dream of keeping a single rabbit alone in a small hutch. However, RWAF relies on you to spread messages to the wider rabbit-owning public, whose standards of care may need to be improved. Please...

We've uploaded details of bunnies in need of new homes onto our Blog. If you have room in your heart and your home for some gorgeous bunnies, homeless through no fault of their own, please see this entry in the RWAF Blog...

There are some updates and new photos of them on our Facebook page

I'm not sure what you mean by travesty, James, but expect it must be that Myxomatosis was introduced deliberately by governments in the UK and Australia in the 50s and 60s, and I agree, it's dreadful. For those who don't know, while Europe has vaccination against both diseases, the Australian...

Myxi and VHD We’d like to remind you once more about keeping vaccinations up to date. It’s only a few days ago that a distraught member who has just moved to a new home in Essex asked us to let everyone know that there is a myxi outbreak there at the moment. If you know of any outbreaks...

Thanks Karen. It's a lot of work (just as an example, I post messages to over 40 forums twice per week, and countless Yahoo groups too)but worth it if the messages get through and make a difference for the bunnies. Wait till we tell you about our annual conference later this year!

We'd like you to say hello and welcome to Toto, Sanza and Ayra. They are the official office bunnies of the RWAF, and have got a very important job. Not only are they promoting rescue bunnies (all being rescued themselves), and showing how happy rabbits are in (neutered) pairs or compatible...

We at the RWAF are featuring rescues regularly and for March we've a few to feature. Firstly, we have a new web page that will change monthly. So please look here, and we'll remind you again when some new rescues are featured. If you can't help...perhaps you'd share the link with somebody who...

Does your rabbit have star quality? Monster Pet Supplies is the first UK on-line pet supply retailer to sign up to the RWAF retailer charter, and to celebrate, they are looking for the face of their on-line rabbit shop. For the chance to make a supermodel of your bunny, and to win a great...

We've been on location today with our friends from Runaround and lots of rabbits, filming the next video. This time we want to show the many natural behaviours of pet rabbits, such as digging, foraging and grooming another rabbit and inspire rabbit owners to allow their rabbits the opportunity...

What about tree prunings? Mine love both apple and willow twigs. The willow is snipped and chewed and the apple is chewed with great relish.

Do you keep disturbing your rabbits' hay? I find my two ignoring it, turning the pleading, starving stare on me, with their tails pressed up hard against the very many varieties of hay that inhabit one end (and much of the floor!) of my kitchen, with the very clear message...'There's nothing to...

Hay! Rabbits benefit from a variety of hay or grass in their diet. Different types, and cut from different places and at different times of year all offer different nutrients and textures. Hay (or grass) should be the cornerstone of their diet and not just a bedding! Hanging baskets...

Love it! Great riposte, Nancy.

We don't want to be serious all the time. Our rabbits are fun, they enrich our lives, though probably not our bank balance This week we'd like you to share stories on forums, discussion groups, Facebook, Google+, Twitter, or wherever you network, about funny things your rabbits have done...

I've never managed to catch any of mine 'in the act' either. I need to have the camera to hand all the time to achieve that. Now...if we had some decent snowfall, I could be ready because they always binky when they play in that We want to spread the word about binkying though and how...
