So after perusing through stuff and with my recent scare I've decided to actually ask about it. Lucy is a sneezer, I'll catch maybe one sneeze every three days, or two or three in one night, but then nothing for a month or so, I'm always checking her nose and eyes whenever I hear one of these sneezes.
I use wood shavings for her bedding and they have a lot of dust in them. I'm pretty sure it's just that getting in to her nose an her just sneezing it out. I try my best to get it out of there but yeah, it's always a problem.
After calling the vet and talking to a girl who owns her own rabbits, we both discussed that they could just be stress related or allergies, but it was most probably the dust.
I tend not to notice them too much anymore because they are so spread out, and she's not sneezing all the time. Is it really worth paying the $50-60 to get it checked out? I mean she'll be going to the vets in ten or so weeks for a check up before she gets spayed. She's had these little sneezes for as long as I've had her so I don't think it's that big a deal, anyone else notice their rabbit sneezing randomly?
(Also I make sure I wait a minute or two after she's sneezed before I check and I make it seem like I'm just getting up to get some food or something. I've seen what happens if they find out they get attention when they sneeze.
