In the United Kingdom, rabbit owners or potential owners can learn more about responsible rabbit care during Burgess National Rabbit Week, January 24-30, 2009.

The focus of this year’s rabbit week is on fiber. Fiber is essential to rabbits’ health, so be sure your rabbit is getting enough hay! You can check out My House Rabbit’s articles “What to Feed Your House Rabbit” and “A Correct Diet is Vital for Rabbits” for more information on the proper diet for rabbits.

Many vets, retailers, rescues and other rabbit organizations across the UK will be participating in National Rabbit Week offering free checkups, samples, and care information.  Go to the Burgess National Rabbit Week website for more information and to find events in your area.

Lucile C. Moore and Kathy Smith, authors of A House Rabbit Primer and Rabbit Health in the 21st Century, respectively, have teamed up to write a much needed new book.  When Your Rabbit Needs Special Care: Traditional and Alternative Healing Methods provides information about various conditions, illnesses, and disabilities along with different methods for care, treatment, and pain control.

This book, which will be released this week, focuses on an area of rabbit health in need of attention.  Now, owners of rabbits with special needs have a comprehensive resource to reference when they are unsure how to care for their pets.
