My rabbits are my family. I am a responsible owner. This morning another is showing signs, because they lived close together untill we discovered the first instance, there is nothing we can do but wait and pray some survive. Our babies are dying because of this horrible virus. Let us at least vaccinate out babies to give them a chance. Make microchipping essential to vaccinate to stop people dumping the pets. But give those who are responsible loving owners a chance to protect their beloved pets

This virus has now claimed 5 of the six rabbits we owned.
These were not just rabbits. They were our family pet. My daughter who is on the autism spectrum adored all of her rabbits and they offered her therapy and calming company.
Myself my ex partner the childrens father and my four children have been left feeling like we have lost five members of our family.
This all could have been prevented if there was a vaccine.
As pet owners we are responsible and accountable to our pets and by law if we treat them poorly then we can be fined or jailed.
We are expected to register desex and vaccinate and if we dont we are not responsible pet owners.
However where is the responsibility of the government who have allowed this virus into the country in the first place to get rid of rabbits???
And moreover by continuing to refuse to legalise the vaccine you are enabling this virus to stay present and run rampant killing our pets.
This is in hummane and animal cruelty. Yes rabbits can be pests. But my pets never destroyed anything.

She was a happy and healthy bunny only 5 months old. She suddenly got ill one afternoon and didn't last through the night. Such a painful death on an innocent little creature. My young children miss her terribly. I had no Idea that this disease existed until doing some research now. How cruel and inhumane to not allow a vaccine in Australia. Also, if I would've known this disease was so widespread I would have never got a bunny. Poor little girl :(

What I find most troubling however is the fact that it is a slow, painful and disabling disease that leads to a prolonged and sad death. I completely understand that the wild rabbit numbers need to be controlled but releasing such a nasty disease is absolute and purposeful animal cruelty and to NOT provide domesticated rabbits with no immunity with a vaccine is criminal. Change the law.
