Seeking information about owning a rabbit. I had concerns about the pet rabbit contracting Myxamatosis from the wild rabbits in our area. The sales assistant was extremely helpful saying that because we lived in rural area it is likely that any pet rabbit would contact this disease. However I was advised that the pet centre owner ,who owns rabbits and lives locally would be available on Monday if I required any further information. As this disease is fatal to rabbits and on the advice from this extremely pleasant and helpful sales assistant I have decided not to purchase a rabbit . Looking at purchasing a Guinea Pig.
Have now spoken to the store owner about rabbits and I now have a beautiful smoky grey rabbit.
