Health Certificate Information
NOTICE
Due to continued outbreaks of RHDv2 the Kansas Department of Agriculture (as of 03/02/21) has determined that rabbits entering Kansas from another state must be     accompanied by a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian from the exhibitors state of residence.  Health certificates must be issued within 30 days of the date of the show.
Show officials are required to check for health certificates for entered rabbits, with     correct date and signature of veterinarian.
Animals without the required health paper are subject to quarantine until the issue is rectified and there is also a potential for civil penalties.

INFORMATION AS IT BECOMES AVAIABLE TO THE SHOW COMMITTEE

From Dr. Chris Hayhow, DVM and ARBA president. 
 
Most states have not enforced the requirement for a health certificate (certificate of veterinary inspection; CVI) for years.  The most likely reasons being 1) in the past rabbits were not considered a major risk and 2) there are not enough people available to enforce the requirement for a CVI.  A CVI is based on an examination of the animal(s) at the point of origin (farm / rabbitry).  In veterinary practice I wrote thousands of CVIs at point of origin and then the animals were inspected upon arrival at the final destination.  This is the process used in virtually every state in the USA.  
 
During this time of heightened awareness due to RHDV I think it is prudent for ARBA members and show officials to heed the requirements for a CVI, if requested by the State officials.  Yes, the CVI must be written prior to departure for the show.  If someone detects a rabbit with a disease problem then we can avoid a super-spreader event.  I recommend that you encourage everyone to follow these recommendations until the threat of RHDV is diminished and the State Veterinarian or Department of Agriculture reduce the requirement for a CVI.
