Book Reviews of Rabbit Health in the 21st Century: A Guide for Bunny Parents

Book Review: Know How to Tell When Your Rabbit is Sick
Summary: 5 Stars

Since rabbits are prey animals they hide illness really well. That's why its important for rabbit keepers to know how to see even the faintest signs of illness and what they mean. The book educates the reader on common illness and their treatments and more chronic illnesses. The author covers drugs, how safe they are, and what they do and discusses alternative medicine. The book has also been reviewed by a vet before publishing so the information can be trusted. This goes beyond what a standard rabbit care book, this is a rabbit health book. Use it as a supplement to a good rabbit care book like the House Rabbit Handbook or Rabbits for Dummies. I recommend this over the Rabbitopaedia, which has incorrect information in it.

Summary of Rabbit Health in the 21st Century: A Guide for Bunny Parents

This user-friendly book on pet rabbit health from a caretaker?'s perspective is written for people with little or no medical or veterinary background. Its goal is to help rabbit owners play a more active, informed role in their rabbit?'s health care decisions. It should never substitute for a trip to the veterinarian!

The book?'s predecessor, Rabbit Health 101, received a favorable review in Exotic DVM Veterinary Magazine. The revised edition incorporates feedback from veterinarians across the country and includes the latest information for the new millennium.

Topics include:

  • Choosing and establishing a relationship with a veterinarian
  • Symptoms and safe treatment options for a variety of conditions
  • Diagnostic tests and how to understand what they tell your veterinarian
  • Drugs (prescription, over the counter, and supplements)
  • Alternative medicine
  • Coping with loss
  • Resources and references

Stories and pictures of rabbits from around the world are sprinkled throughout the book, adding personal touches to serious topics. By the time you have read the entire book you will feel that you know Smokey, who inspired the original Rabbit Health 101, and Murray, who contributed so much to this most recent update.
