Hello everyone,
Thank you so much for your helpful comments. I'm very sorry I didn't come back earlier to update you
The good news is that the snoring has stopped, and the vet has given both of them the all clear.
So the problem was literally just a snoring noise, when the bunnies were very relaxed or asleep. There was no discharge around the eyes, nose or mouth; she's not a dental bun (both of them have good teeth despite the fact that they don't chew *anything* except hay. This also makes them perfect house bunnies ).
I mentioned the snoring to the vet when they went in for their jabs. He gave them a good listening to, and said that they were fine. We had the good bunny vet as well, so I am confident that they have had a good check up. He said it could have been that the fumes inflamed something, but that it wasn't causing lasting damage.
All the painted items have been banished to the garage, and so I suspect that this is why the snoring has stopped. We do actually need these shelves, but we're going to investigate different sorts of paint, or perhaps getting them painted elsewhere, before we bring them back into the house.
Thanks again for all your help
