Strange Noise

About a week ago I noticed our dutch bunny, Tilly, was making funny noises when she breathed.

We monitored her over the weekend, it didn't get worse, and she went to the vets on Tuesday. She wasn't making the noise all the time, more noticably when she was eating/stressed/excited. It also doesn't seem to be bothering her. She is still her bright self and eating/drinking and trouble making as usual.

The vet said its in her nose rather than in her chest and prescribed baytril twice a day for 8-10 days

I haven't noticed much of a difference, maybe a slight improvement 3 days into the baytril.

Just curious as to what anyone thinks it could be as I am stumped :?
 
Nope no nasal discharge

Noise is hard to describe....umm......sounds kinda like a snotty noise. Definatly sounds 'fluidy'

Its a really odd sound
 
I had a rabbit that sneezed quite a bit and then i found the problem,a piece of hay about 4 inches long up her nostril,how something that long got up there is a mystery.

casper had this on no nasal discharge he has snuffles on his lungs, he has antibiotic injections when he gets weezy now, seems to do the trick :) its like a wheezy and when he gets stressed or excited it sounds honky. he has them for about a months every 3 days, after the 3rd injection i notice a slight difference but it does take a month for it to completely go xx
