Supportive At-Home Euthanasia Services
We understand this may be one of the hardest decisions you’ve ever faced. If you’re considering euthanasia for your beloved rabbit, please know that you’re not alone. This moment is incredibly emotional, but it’s also an act of deep love, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.
At Dignipets, we focus on making your rabbit’s final moments as peaceful and comforting as possible.
Our experienced hospice vets work closely with you, carefully considering your rabbit’s unique personality and medical condition. Together, we’ll create a calm and respectful environment where your rabbit can feel safe and loved right to the very end.
What To Expect During A Rabbit Euthanasia Home Visit
Once you schedule the visit, we will promptly send you all the necessary information via email. Be sure to take your time reading through it, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions. As the visit approaches, you will receive a notification letting you know when the vet is on their way. The vet will arrive in a discreet vehicle, sometimes with a subtle logo, and will be dressed in branded clothing to maintain a professional appearance.
In your booking details, you will find a PDF containing a “Do Not Disturb” sign. Simply print it out and attach it to your door. This small step helps maintain privacy and tranquillity during this emotional moment. By taking this action, you can ensure a peaceful environment for both you and your rabbit.
Upon the vet’s arrival, they will clearly explain the entire process and address any questions you have. It’s important that you feel informed and comfortable, and your input is vital in ensuring that the procedure is as peaceful and respectful as possible for both you and your rabbit. The vet will guide you through every step, so you know exactly what to expect.
After answering any remaining questions and establishing a plan, the vet will sedate your rabbit. This step is crucial to make sure your rabbit is comfortable and relaxed, allowing them to be at ease before the final procedure. The sedation helps alleviate any pain, ensuring a calm and peaceful experience for your pet.
Once your rabbit is deeply sedated, the vet will administer the euthanasia injection. In some cases, the vet may remove a small area of fur to access the injection site. During this process, your rabbit may tremble or take a final breath. Rest assured, this is a natural part of the process and indicates that your rabbit is peacefully transitioning. The vet will be with you every step of the way, ensuring your rabbit’s comfort.
Finally, the vet will listen to your rabbit’s heart to confirm their passing. This step ensures the procedure has been completed respectfully and peacefully. You can take comfort in knowing that your rabbit has passed away in the most dignified way, surrounded by love in the comfort of your home.

Our lovely cat Tinky was trusting and relaxed, despite being in pain and that was totally down to Sandy. So ‘thank you’ from the bottom of our hearts for making a difficult situation positive. ❤️
Right from our first contact I knew that we had found the right support at such a difficult time. Such a kind and compassionate service, that helped us say our goodbyes in the comfort of our own home which brought us and our beloved dog peace. Thank you.
Highly recommend Dignipets. Very professional and kind during a very difficult time. Lucian came to our home to put our beautiful Marcie to sleep. From the moment he came in everything was done with complete dignity and professionalism. We also didn't feel rushed it was all done slowly and calmly so she passed away on her armchair, in her favourite spot with the sun shining on her
It was the hardest decision that we had to made and without Donna's help, it would be a much, much painful experience. Thank you for your compassionate service, which allowed us to say goodbye to Jade at home with all of us by her side. Thank you all for making this possible!
Excellent service, right from the first contact. I received a call back promptly and arranged for same day euthanasia for our lovely Polly, who had suffered long enough. The vet called when he was an hour away and upon arrival was empathetic and gave us as much time as we needed to say goodbye. As our dog was a sun lover, we opted for her to be put to sleep in her favourite spot in the garden. Her last moments were peaceful and as we wanted. Highly recommend this company and service. Thank you so much.
Today we had to say goodbye to our beloved Bonnie who gave us 15 and 1/2 years of love and devotion. From the min I made contact till she crossed the rainbow bridge, all she was shown by the team and the vet Lucian was pure compassion and dignity. She went so peacefully at home and this made it so special for all of us that she stayed at home till the end.
Thank you to all the team

Thankyou Dignipets, and thankyou to Stef who made the sadness more bearable throughout. You gave us a warm and beautiful departure for our dog, Molly, and we are grateful for the consideration and gentleness you showed us.
Outstanding service & support once again from Dignipets … naturally it was a very difficult & harrowing time saying goodbye to Jack, our old boy of 17.5 years but it was made a lot easier by having a home visit by someone who was kind & caring & had all the time in the world to explain exactly what was about to happen and treated Jack with the dinghy & respect that he deserved … he quietly drifted off to sleep very peacefully to wait for us until we see him again.
We couldn't have had a lovelier send-off for our 20-year-old cat Bubbles. I'm so grateful to Dignipets for making the most heartbreaking event an actually peaceful and healing experience.
Paula the vet was incredible, she was so gentle and patient and kind, both to us humans and to Bubbles. I loved how she called Bubbles little lady, spoke to her so sweetly and moved her so gently. She sat us down first to explain everything thoroughly and nothing felt rushed at all. It was a calm, peaceful experience from start to end.
Paula advised us to give Bubbles some treats, so we gave her some cream just before Paula gave her the first sedating injection. Bubbles was so calm and placid. Our last memory of her is slowly laying down and licking her lips, clearly enjoying the aftertaste of cream while the sedation was kicking in, it's such a lovely final memory. I was able to have Bubbles on my knee on a pillow, safe on the sofa in her home for the past 18 years, while she slowly and gently passed from the second injection. It's difficult to think of a more dignified and loving way to go.
Thank you Paula and Dignipets for such a peaceful experience for our beloved old cat. It gave me some closure to carry her wrapped up in a cosy bundle and lay her into Paula's van. My only regret is not using Dignpets for our beloved old dog who was euthanised at the veterinary practice a few months prior and whose final moments were fearful and distressed in the scary vet environment.
Anyone whose pet gets distressed going to the vet, please please please consider giving your pet the gift of an at-home Dignipets euthanasia, it's the final act of love that our pets more than deserve.
