My rabbit keeps sneezing. Is it a cold or something more serious?

[]

Answer

Sneezing in rabbits can be a symptom of various conditions, ranging from mild irritations to more serious upper respiratory infections like "snuffles," caused by bacteria such as Pasteurella. Other causes can include allergies, dust, foreign bodies in the nasal passages, or dental problems. Monitor your rabbit for other signs like nasal discharge (especially if it's thick or colored), reduced appetite, lethargy, or difficulty breathing. If the sneezing is persistent, accompanied by other symptoms, or your rabbit seems unwell, it's important to consult a vet experienced with rabbits promptly, as respiratory issues can quickly worsen. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
