What does this mean? What should I do?
here we go,,one day our house rabbit sneezed,,i asked those concerned how often does he do that,,oh not that much-=allergies,,i said oh,a herbivore with allergies--i don,t think so,,,off to the dvm specialist,--after a nasal culture,,idendifying a bacteria called enterococcus,,the house bun was given an antibiotic called trimethoprim,,for upper respiratory infections--about 3 weeks later he was all better,,,good idea when giving antibiotics is to feed probiotics like benebac....sincerely james waller:wave::rose:What does this mean?

I don't believe Katmai has the same problem as your rabbit did. If anyone could see him, he is 95% healthy with just a wee bit of sneezing.I've had this problem before. There's a product called vetRX that will make him more comfortable, at least, and some cure all antibiotics can make it lie dormant. Remember, there is no cure for this, if it is what it sounds like, which is pastuerellosis. All you can do is make it lie dormant and don't do anything to stress him out, because that's generally what causes it to flare up. Neoterramycin or terramycin, 1 tsp per gallon of water, did the trick for us when it was floating around.
