thats not fair anyway, i'm sure someone at petsmart should be able to recommend somewhere that can do it. but like you say, most are just dogs and cats.
compare the market comes up with 3. or petplan.co.uk

Today we have agreed to adopt an 8 month old rabbit due to the fact that my ex-wife took her (my sons rabbit) to the local petsmart as she decided she
no longer wanted it - Forgot to ask my son what he thought about it though !
Needless to say my boy is upset so we called petsmart and arranged to adopt the rabbit once they are ready to put her up for adoption in a few days
time. (After telling them the reason we wanted her, they were more than happy for us to re-home.)
Anyway, i am looking to try and get some sort of insurance for vet bills but can only find 2 providers, all the rest only do cats and dogs. Does
anyone know or have some recomendations of a good company ?? hopefully we wont need to claim but you never know !
Cheers Andy

Don't Ann Summers offer a 12 month guarantee? 
how much is a rabbit going to cost in vets bills ?
Stupid me didnt think to ask in petsmart !
Will talk to them tomorrow.
The two companys i found online were asking 12.50 per month which seems a little steep ? i could build me locost for 20 months worth of rabbit
insurance - or so the book recons
Also, not so sure the rabbit is rampant but will check ann summers website anyway - just to make sure

i've just noticed ann summers sell rabbit cleaning wipes
you can insure dogs and cats but you can't eat them.
there is a reason why you can't insure rabbits.
Rabbit cleaning wipes ! thats great
Who would have thought that a simple fluffy bunny post would have sent us all on a trip to the ann summers website - how strange

This is great - keep em coming
we had rabbits when I was a kid.
My view on them is that they are robust but disposable.
It is sad when they die, but that is one of the things about pet ownership for kids.

biggest vet bill for a rabbit should be around £25. only catch is you either have to dig the hole or skin it.
i'd agree with some of the above.
best insuranbce policy aginst the rabbit getting porrly is to make sure you always have a sharp knife some fresh herbs onions and carrots in the
cupboard at all times.

would any of you eat ruby the house rabbit? the missus would be after you!

From experience the best way to protect against high bills is to give the rabbit lots if fresh veg or grass, a big run, decent hutch and away from any noise etc that might stress them and bring on gut stasis, also keep teeth and nails clipped. Apart from that there is little that can go wrong that can be fixed by a vet anyway.
My niece has a couple of rabbits and when one of them was a bit iffy she took it to the vet. She was not too chuffed when the vet admitted she didn't like treating rabbits because they only have two states, healthy or dead.
