Keep Your Rabbits Healthy: The Content

The e-book, Keep Your Rabbits Healthy, is the result of many years of hands-on rabbit care. 

The ability to recognize rabbit disease at an early stage, and then take immediate steps toward eliminating causes and establishing a healthy environment for the rabbit or herd of rabbits is crucial to their consistent, overall health.

Imagine how many health catastrophes are avoided or minimized by knowing right away what a symptom means, and even better, what to do about it. 

Why Rabbit Knowledge is So important...

Consider an example of rabbit syphilis.

A website visitor reached out, telling us about their pet rabbit whose vent became scabby. Unfortunately, the rabbit owner had no idea what he was looking at, so he took the rabbit to a vet. Most vets treat dogs and cats. They have very little experience with rabbits, which are considered an exotic animal.

Dr. Vet had no problem diagnosing the problem: rabbit syphilis. He even prescribed an excellent treatment - penicillin, which is a treatment of choice. Where things went horribly wrong was the method of delivery of said penicillin. Dr. Vet prescribed the medication by mouth, which is great for dogs and cats, but catastrophic for rabbits, who need an active hind gut microbiome for survival. The penicillin by mouth ended up killing the entire intestinal microbiome before it ever killed a spirochete. The rabbit died, and the pet owner was broken-hearted.

If the rabbit owner had understood even a little of how rabbit biology works, and had known to beware anything that could kill the friendly bacteria in the rabbit's guts, he would likely still have his pet today.
