Sneezing

I am still only relatively new to bunnies. We got Charlee in January, and Noah came in July. Noah has been neutered and is up to date on his vaccinations.

In the past day or so I have noticed him sneezing. I am not sure if it is something to worry about but thought I would check here. He never normally sneezes, and it seems to occur in fits -- so he will sneeze up to 10 times in a row and then nothing for ages.

Can I please have some advice as to whether this is something to be worried about?
 
Hiya :wave:

Is it possible that Noah has had something up his nose like a bit of fluff/hay? Poppy does this sometimes when she's been laying with her face in her hay tray :lol:

Is there any discharge from his nosey?
 
could be dusty hay maybe, but i would get him checked over at the vets (rabbit vets) just to make sure it isn't the start of any respiratory problems. they take hold pretty quickly so best get him checked over sooner rather than later. :wave:
 
No discharge from his nose, normal appetite and otherwise healthy. We did wonder if he had got something up his nose -- especially as we are in the middle of a really bad hayfever season, but as it has happened quite a few times lately (at least 4 or 5) I thought I would ask. Will try and get a vet appointment.
 
I've noticed the same with my boi bunny - he's randomly started sneezing/snorting this week. I've been keeping an eye on him and he's no discharge at the nose or eyes either.

I've been sneezing a lot too so I think it may just be a dusty season in our house and have been doing lots more dusting and cleaning to make sure its clean and tiny nose friendly.
