Give your floppy eared friends some extra TLC (=Tender, Love and Care), as national rabbit week leaps to a start on Monday, January 22.

As part of the nation wide initiative, Kingsfisher veterinary practice, in Glynswood, Chard (UK), are holding free MOT's for your bunnies, with advice on food and care.

For information or to book an appointment call 01460-66111.

People are invited to bring along their rabbits, which will be seen by a nurse and given a free pack of rabbit food.

Around 80 percent of rabbits are not being fed correctly, so the nurses are also on hand to give advice on how to look after your bunny properly.
