The GSPCA wants to reinforce their recent message for all rabbits to take great care as Rabbit Haemorraghic Viral Disease (RHVD2) variant 2 are affecting our wild and domestic rabbits again here in Guernsey and a massive surge of rabbits with myxomatosis are being seen with the large numbers of rabbits around Guernsey.

These fatal diseases are a huge risk to unvaccinated rabbits and especially to those in outside enclosures.
