Runny nose, but not Snuffles?

Not sure, but it does sound like an upperrespitory infection, pasturella a good suspect. Keep the medsgoing. Hope your baby gets better.

Someone with more knowledge about this will be along...

I would keep the meds going, but he has to be off of them for 5 days to do the test to see what it is



His nose always gets worse when he's around hay, and he sneezesmore! I know of two other people w/rabbits allergic to hay,but I don't know if that would make his nose yellow.

I'll keep you posted.

What kind of hay are you giving him? Let's rule out some things here.

If it is the hay, we can see about taking parts out and basically,sifting out the dust. This may eliminate theproblem. Start with this before going to the vet again andsee how the breathing is. I don't think I would keep him onBaytril, unless you believe there is an actual infection.

You may want to halt it for now, but the second you notice it's not thehay or can't be, see why he's sneezing. Mine do it whenthey're grooming-alot!

I'm giving him a mixture of timothy and alfalfa. What should I do?

PCR test came back negative for Pastuerella!! WOO-HOO!!!

Should I take away his hay to see if that is what's causingit? I feel bad doing it, but he always seems to sneeze aroundTimothy AND Alfalfa.

Oh, and his eyes are fine; his nose is just runny sometimes.
