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.

can rabbits have hiccups i was watching alfie and bailey all snugged behind the armchair and all of a sudden baileys belly started moving fast and she started making what sound like hiccup noises it only last for about 30 seconds she seems fine, everything eating, drinking, poos are fine

Yes they do. :D Bubbles had them once and it frightened the life out of me. :shock::lol:
 
Oh yes. :lol: They are much more common in baby rabbits (as I discovered when I thought Mimi was having a seizure), but they still occur in adults from time to time. I think Mimi gets them a lot because of how fast she glugs down her water.

Such a cute little noise too. :love:
