Fife rabbit rescue is based at my home in Newburgh. Rabbits come here to the rescue from all different circumstances, from much loved to severely neglected. Once they are here, they are given a health check by Claire Poole from Logie veterinary surgery. Then they are neutered and vaccinated before going to a new home. The rabbits here are loved and cared for but I try to get them into new homes as soon as possible, I give them all the time I can, but they deserve more.

I can have rabbit hutches built if required, they are of excellent quality and can be viewed here at the rescue.
They are 6ft x 2.5 x 2.5 for £150 but the best housing for your rabbits would be a shed
or playhouse with attached run.
Please contact me before purchasing a hutch as I may be able give you valuable advice.
You can help raise funds by buying via this link,
the rescue receives 5% of sales.

Every year Myxomatosis kills hundreds of domestic rabbits as well as wild rabbits.
Myxomatosis is typically spread by blood sucking insects and in particular the rabbit flea. This flea is frequently found on wild rabbits and transmission in the absence of bites is unusual. All breeds of domestic rabbit can be affected, with little to suggest that one breed is more susceptible than another, and whatever the lifestyle of your rabbit there is a potential risk of this disease. So even house rabbits can get Myxomatosis. Always keep a regular check on pets for any signs of fleas and consider the regular use of an insecticidal treatment from your vet. There is also evidence to suggest that mosquitoes and other biting flies may transmit myxomatosis in the UK, so nets and insect repellent can be used to combat this threat in warmer weather. Your vet will be able to advise you further on these measures, since not all products are suitable or safe for rabbits.
Most importantly you should vaccinate your rabbits against Myxomatosis every 6 months. This will help prevent this cruel and painful virus. So don’t delay have it done today!
