Attention Rabbit Owners

We’ve secured a deposit for 80 doses of the RHDV2 vaccine! This time, the process will be a little different. Instead of individual vials, the doses will come in 40-dose vials. Here’s the catch: once a vial is opened, it must be used within 7 days.

To avoid waste, we’ll need your help. Our plan is to schedule 40 vaccinations within a week to fully utilize each vial before moving to the next one.

Please call or email the practice to book your vaccine:

Thank you for your cooperation!

It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the news of Annie’s passing during the December holidays of 2024. Annie was not just our mascot at the AWARE Foundation; she was our daily companion at EarthPet. Her life brought us joy and love and helped to cushion us from the toil of dealing…

At CARE, we do not recommend leg bands for parrots. This outdated identification method can cause discomfort and even serious injuries. Leg bands can constrict as the bird grows, potentially leading to circulation problems, severe pain, and, in extreme cases, loss of toes or feet. Additionally, they may catch on cages or toys, increasing the risk of injury. Instead, we recommend microchipping as a safer, permanent form of identification that minimizes these risks and prioritizes the parrot’s well-being.

This is a leg band, and you can see dead cells accumulating within the ring.
