Rabbit Rescue, Control & Management

First ever rabbit hemorrhagic disease confirmation in Saskatchewan was announced today. This is why we hold community RHD vaccine clinics because this disease can pop up anytime, anywhere. The best protection is to vaccinate/boost your rabbits annually to help maintain immunity.

Also worth mentioning is today’s RHD confirmation in feral rabbits in Billings, Montana.In July 2026, veterinarians confirmed Saskatchewan's first case of rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV2). RHDV2 is a highly contagious and often fatal disease of domestic rabbits, feral rabbits, wild rabbits and hares. It doesn't cause disease in humans or other animal species.

🐇 If you own rabbits, please take these important steps:

• contact your local veterinarian to have rabbits annually vaccinated for RHDV2
• keep rabbits housed indoors since the disease can be spread by contact or through food
• prevent contact with wild rabbits, hares or feral rabbits

Visit the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) website for more information about RHDV2: inspection.canada.ca/en/animal-health/terrestrial-animals/diseases/immediately-notifiable/rabbit-... ... See MoreSee Less

Another after hours emergency. ‼
After getting little Nibbles, who was grabbed by a cat, to baby foster Jenn last night, we got a call about an injured baby by a curb on the street late today. This one has mobility issues, we'll need xrays to see what the problem is, and in the meantime, the baby is on anti inflammatories.
A Nibbles update: s/he does have an puncture mark from the cat, is very dehydrated and receiving antibiotics, but so far, so good.
Here's the Nibbles link...

Incoming ‼ This poor little mite was brought home by somebody's cat. 🥺The Rabbitats team sprung into action after a late night email. ❤️ Deanna coordinated while Candy picked the bunny up and then paid a midnight visit to baby foster Jenn, who has all the needed supplies (including the right antibiotics) and is close to our vet. Cat bacteria can really be deadly to rabbits, but we're hoping for the best. 🤞🏻 ... See MoreSee Less
