Description
Good welfare is essential in animal keeping - many illnesses and injuries occur due to chronic stress or just poor husbandry.
An experienced vet and vet nurse discuss rabbit welfare both in the home and at the clinic; how do we make the vet trip a better experience for the pet rabbit? And what advice can we give for owners to make the rabbit's life a much better one?
This will be a non-traditional webinar and you re invited to give your views and questions beforehand so we can discuss on the night as well as being able to feed in questions through the session. Please send any questions in advance to [email protected]
Matt and John won't have all the answers but this promises to be a thought-provoking evening to complement the themes of Rabbit Awareness Week
