Well we have some really exciting news! Through Hub West Scotland’s Helping Hands Project we are going to be getting some vital maintenance work done throughout next week, from re-concreting the yard, sorting drainage issues, repair work, improvements to the play area and lots, lots more! This will all make a massive difference to us coming into the winter 😀
This unfortunately does mean that the Farm will be closed from Monday to Friday next week (16-20/9/19). At present the plans are to be reopened by the weekend, but this may change. All updates will be posted on our Facebook page, along with some pictures to let everyone see the progress!
We are really sorry if this causes an inconvenience to anyone, but think how good the Farm will look once the work is complete!
Please note that we have introduced additional requirements for vaccinations for boarding rabbits with us. With immediate effect, ALL rabbits must have had their Myxomatosis and RHD1 combined vaccination AND ALSO their RHD2 vaccination before we can accept them.
The Mmyxomatosis and RHD1 combined vaccination will require to have been administered at least FOUR weeks in advance of any rabbit boarding with us. The RHD2 vaccination must be administered TWO weeks later.Since there is a two week period before the RHD2 vaccination becomes effective, this must be administered a minimum of TWO weeks prior to any rabbit boarding with us.
We have had to introduce this more stringent vaccination requirement due to the increased prevalence of RHD1 and RHD2 in Scotland. Proof of all vaccinations must be provided when dropping off your rabbit, otherwise we cannot accept it for boarding.
