Dial A Vet · Accepted Answer

Nose twitching in rabbits is normal and helps them process scents. However, 'aggressive' or excessive twitching could be a sign of respiratory distress, allergies, or an irritant in their nasal passages. Check for any discharge from the nose or eyes, changes in breathing, or decreased appetite. Ensure their enclosure is clean and free of strong perfumes or dusty bedding. If you notice any other concerning symptoms or if the behavior continues for an extended period, it warrants a veterinary check-up. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
