New bunny sneezing

[lexyrose]

Hi everyone,

My adopted bunny Alfred came home on Saturday and he started sneezing a lot that night. I thought it was allergies, from being in the new enviroment. He didn't sneeze as much yesterday, just a couple of times last night. This morning he sneezed before I left for work. His brother Seymour doesn't sneeze at all. What could it be?

Normally if a bun is sneezing a few times you could watch and see if it stops or gets worse; however with a new bunI would suggest a vet visit with someone who treats rabbits. Could be nothing but also could be the beginning of an Upper respiratory infection.
If your bun came from a shelter or rabbit rescue i would contact them and ask if they had noticed anything while he was at the shelter.

Yeah, just a few times is probably ok. Make sure your hay isn't full of dust and keep an eye on it, also check for any nasal mucus discharge.
