Rabbits are sensitive prey animals with a well-developed stress response system that evolved for survival in the wild — but that response becomes a liability in domestic environments. Rabbits housed alone, in noisy households, or near predator animals (dogs, cats) experience chronic low-grade stress that suppresses immune function, disrupts digestive motility, and can lead to GI stasis — a potentially life-threatening condition unique to rabbits. Managing environmental stress is one of the most important preventive measures a rabbit owner can take.
MedVant SecureBunny Home uses an ultrasonic or pheromone-based diffuser system to create a calming environmental signal for rabbits. The 30-day refill provides a continuous supply of the active compound for one full month, designed for use with the SecureBunny Home starter kit diffuser unit. Unlike sedative medications, pheromone-based calming systems produce no systemic effects — they work through natural sensory communication pathways to reduce behavioural signs of stress such as thumping, hiding, and fur plucking.
The refill format makes ongoing use economical and ensures continuity of the calming environment without interruption. SecureBunny is manufactured by MedVant, a Canadian animal health company.

Directions for Use
Insert refill into the SecureBunny Home diffuser unit. Plug the diffuser into an electrical outlet in the room where the rabbit spends most of its time. Replace monthly. Keep the diffuser away from areas with direct airflow (fans, air conditioning vents) that would disperse the active compound before it reaches the rabbit.
Supplement Advisor's Note
GI stasis in rabbits is a genuine emergency — the lagomorph GI tract is not designed to stop moving, and once motility ceases, bacterial overgrowth and gas accumulation can become life-threatening within hours. Chronic stress is a documented trigger for reduced GI motility in rabbits. Investing in environmental calming measures like SecureBunny is genuinely preventive medicine for rabbit owners, not merely comfort supplementation.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need a new starter kit, or just this refill?
- You need the SecureBunny Home starter kit (diffuser unit) for first-time use. This refill replaces the active compound insert after the first month.
- Is SecureBunny safe around other pets in the household?
- Yes. The active compound is species-specific to rabbits and does not affect cats, dogs, or other household animals.
- How quickly does SecureBunny take effect?
- Most rabbit owners notice changes in behaviour within the first 7 days of continuous use.
- Can I use this in a multi-rabbit household?
- Yes. In fact, multi-rabbit households where social dynamics cause stress are ideal candidates for SecureBunny.
- Does it need to run continuously or only when the rabbit is stressed?
- Continuous use is recommended. The calming signal works best as a sustained environmental background, not an acute intervention.
