Rabbits: Health, Husbandry and Diseases
Rabbits are the third most popular pet in the world and the trend to keep them indoors will make the "house rabbit" the pet of the next century. Owners expect the same standard of care for their rabbit as their dog or cat. This book will provide a practical and concise guide to the health, husbandry and diseases of pet and house rabbits and will be an invaluable resource for busy vets in practice. The book begins with an overview of rabbit husbandry. Nutritional requirements and clinical examination are covered in chapters 2 and 3. Subsequent chapters then take a body system approach to describing diseases, their diagnosis and treatment. There are separate chapters on behaviour, anaesthesia and surgery, and zoonotic aspects. This practical, quick–reference guide will appeal to veterinarians, veterinary students, veterinary nurses and breeders alike.
