My rabbit keeps sneezing and has a wet nose. What could be wrong?

[]

Answer

Sneezing and a wet nose in a rabbit can indicate a respiratory infection, commonly known as 'snuffles.' This can be caused by bacteria (like Pasteurella), viruses, or even allergies or environmental irritants like dust. It's crucial to address this promptly as respiratory issues can quickly worsen in rabbits. Look for other signs such as discharge from the eyes, lethargy, reduced appetite, or labored breathing. Keep their enclosure clean and dust-free. A veterinary examination is essential to diagnose the cause and prescribe appropriate treatment. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
