HOW do you cure arthritis in a giant rabbit? Take it swimming of course.
One meter long bunny Heidi dons a red life jacket, before taking to the hyrdotherapy pool.
The 45 minute swimming sessions is reportedly working wonders on the elderly rabbit's arthritis.
Her owner Amanda Williams, 44, from Dorset said that Heidi started suffering in Christmas prompting the vet to recommend the unusual treatment regime.
Amanda said: “None of us thought she would tolerate one minute in the water but in her first session she took to it very quickly.
"She leapt off the platform into the pool. She is now a much happier rabbit.”
