My rabbit keeps sneezing. Should I be worried about snuffles?

[]

Answer

Sneezing in rabbits can be a symptom of various issues, from simple irritants like dust to more serious conditions like 'snuffles' (Pasteurellosis), which is a bacterial infection. Other signs of snuffles can include nasal discharge, matted fur on the front paws, and labored breathing. It's important to observe if there's any discharge, if the sneezing is frequent, or if your rabbit is showing other signs of illness like lethargy or loss of appetite. A vet visit is recommended to diagnose the cause and get appropriate treatment, especially given how quickly rabbits can decline. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
