**MYXOMATOSIS OUTBREAK – VACCINATE YOUR RABBITS NOW, VACCINE PRICE REDUCED** We have had a rapid increase in the number of rabbits coming in with myxomatosis. There is currently an outbreak amongst the wild rabbits in our area and the virus is now spreading to pet rabbits. We estimate less than 5% of pet rabbits in our area are vaccinated! This a usually a fatal disease that can be prevented by a simple vaccine injection so we highly recommend bringing in your rabbit ASAP if not protected. The vaccine is normally £36 which also includes cover for Viral hemorrhagic disease, another fatal disease carried by wild rabbits. Quote this facebook post and we will reduce this to £26.00 until the end of October. Your rabbit will also be given a free health check at the same time

Susanna was out on a farm today performing a TB test (all cattle have to be tested regularly). Along came a really friendly cow for her test; it turns out she was the farmers pet cow called Daisy that he had hand reared. Susanna fell in love as Daisy was such a star and couldn’t resist a selfie!

It’s also pretty useful for watering the hanging baskets.
