Infectious rhinitis in rabbits is mainly caused by simultaneous infection of Pasteurella multocida and Bordetella. In most cases, Pasteurella is parasitic in the nasal cavity of rabbits, but under normal circumstances, rabbits will not get sick. The air quality in the rabbit house is the main factor affecting this phenomenon. In addition, when the weather changes suddenly, it will also lead to stress reaction in rabbits, and then get sick. The performance of rabbit rhinitis attack is: frequent sneezing, the number of sneezing will gradually increase, maybe a lot of sneezing at a time, slowly accompanied by runny nose. But rabbits usually shake their noses by shaking their heads, so owners rarely see rabbits' noses. However, if the owner finds that the hair around the rabbit's nose is tangled and dirty, and sees the rabbit sneezing frequently, the owner should pay attention, and it is likely that the rabbit has rhinitis. In the early stage of rabbit rhinitis, the owner can treat the sick rabbit with Banlangen granule. If it doesn't get better, you can try spraying it with a small animal, and then you need an injection to cooperate with the treatment. Rabbit rhinitis must be treated as soon as possible, otherwise it will become more and more difficult to cure, and the future trouble will be endless.

Note: If the rabbit sneezes while eating or drinking water, it is generally not rhinitis, so the owner need not worry.

Sneezing caused by rabbit rhinitis is usually accompanied by white purulent secretions, so the owner can pay attention to it.

If the rabbit just sneezes without white purulent secretion, it may be caused by the following circumstances:

1. If the rabbit sneezes only when eating, it is likely that there is too much powder in the powder of rabbit food or pasture, and the rabbit is choked. Therefore, it is necessary for the owner to screen out the powder in the feed before feeding the rabbit, and then pay attention to observe whether the sneezing phenomenon has improved.

2. If the rabbit sneezes at other times, it may be that the rabbit has a cold or rhinitis. Young rabbits have high temperature requirements, and the temperature is 20-25℃. If the indoor temperature is lower than 20℃, the owner should take warm measures for the rabbit.

Treatment: Rabbit rhinitis. At the beginning, the owner can brew Radix Isatidis granules or Shuanghuanglian granules or feed rabbits with Shuanghuanglian oral liquid. The dosage of feeding granules is: half a bag/day; Shuanghuanglian oral liquid can be fed 1ml every day. After a week's observation, if the rabbit's rhinitis still does not improve, it is necessary to take the rabbit to the pet hospital for a big rhinitis injection, such as nasal cough.

Dr. Paw Paw reminds me that most of the pathogens causing the outbreak of infectious rhinitis in rabbits are conditional pathogens, indicating that the management level of the owner is one of the important factors leading to the outbreak of rhinitis in rabbits. I hope that the owner can maintain a high level of management for rabbits at ordinary times.
