Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.
(Bordetella)) then it is unlikely your Rabbit will infect your GP
One of the piggies seems sick today, but has never even seen the rabbit. So I was wondering if i somehow passed it on. Like I said they never are in contact, and the vet said it was very early infection. I took him to the vet the moment I saw a runny nose!! I just hope that I didnt make the pig sick from the broom. I guess I shouldn't worry though if it is only contracted through direct contact and airborne transmission they are so far apart I don't even think they know eachother exist!
