Transporting a rabbit — whether to the veterinarian, a boarding facility, or a new home — is one of the highest-stress experiences in a domestic rabbit's life. The unfamiliar sights, sounds, motion, and absence of familiar environmental cues activate the rabbit's acute stress response, which in extreme cases can contribute to cardiovascular events in already compromised animals. For healthy rabbits, the stress of transport suppresses GI motility for hours after arrival, contributing to inappetence and reduced cecotrope consumption.
MedVant SecureBunny Transport is a water-based spray designed for direct application to the rabbit's carrier, bedding, and surrounding surfaces before and during transport. The spray delivers a calming environmental signal that travels with the rabbit, reducing acute stress throughout the journey. The water-based formulation is safe for carrier surfaces, soft bedding, and does not leave staining residue.
The 50 ml bottle is sized for portability — it fits easily in a carrier bag or veterinary kit and provides multiple full applications. Use before placing the rabbit in the carrier and reapply as needed for extended journeys.
- Water-based spray — safe on carrier surfaces, soft bedding, and fabrics
- Reduce acute transport stress in rabbits during vet visits, travel, and relocation
- Portable 50 ml bottle — fits in a bag or carrier bag
- Apply to carrier and bedding — calming signal travels with the rabbit
- Complements SecureBunny Home and Adventure product formats
Directions for Use
Spray 8–10 pumps into the carrier or on the bedding 15 minutes before placing the rabbit inside, allowing the spray to settle. Avoid spraying directly onto the rabbit. Reapply every 2–3 hours for extended transport. Store at room temperature.
Supplement Advisor's Note
Pre-treating the carrier the night before a trip is even more effective than treating immediately before departure — it allows the calming compound to fully diffuse through the bedding and carrier walls, creating a more saturated environment. Combining this with the rabbit's normal bedding (which carries familiar scent) further reduces transport anxiety by maintaining olfactory continuity with the home environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Should I spray it directly on my rabbit?
- No — spray onto the carrier, bedding, and surrounding surfaces rather than directly on the rabbit. The spray is designed for environmental application.
- How is this different from the SecureBunny Adventure spot-on?
- The Transport spray treats the environment (carrier, bedding); the Adventure spot-on is applied directly to the rabbit's skin. Both address acute stress but through different application routes. Use the one that best fits your situation, or combine both for maximum effect.
- Is it safe on soft fabric carrier inserts?
- Yes, the water-based formulation is designed to be safe on fabric and soft surfaces without staining.
- Can I use SecureBunny Transport in addition to the Home diffuser?
- Yes — they work through complementary pathways. Use the Home diffuser for daily environmental baseline and the Transport spray for acute travel situations.
- How many applications does a 50 ml bottle provide?
- At 8–10 pumps per application, a 50 ml bottle provides approximately 6–8 full carrier treatments.
