Image Applying EMLA cream
EMLA cream is a local anaesthetic cream that can be applied to to skin over veins so the intravenous cannulae or needles can be inserted without pain. It takes 40 minutes to take effect and the area needs to be covered. If the ear vein is used, cutting a finger off a latex glove to cover the area is useful and well tolerated.

Although it is often recommended that young rabbits should not eat any leafy green foods until they are 6 months old, the advice doesn't make sense. It may apply to rabbits kept in crowded conditions with a low fibre diet and many environmental pathogens but for rabbits with access to leafy green plants, it does not apply.
