Hi all
need some advice for Mischa who has been sneezing for about the last three weeks. initially she just sneezed with no discharge but i took her to the vet to be on the safe side. she got an antibiotic jag and i also changed her litter tray to shredded paper instead of wood shavings. at the moment she is an indoor bun with Lola and they are both very active bunnies. mischa is still active and still eats all her food and more! after xmas she was still sneezing but she had a small amount of discharge so took her back to the vet. she got more antibiotic and some to put in her water. she is still sneezing although the injection seemed to help at first. not sure how much of the water she is drinking. apart from the sneezing she is fine, eating well and jumping about as normal. the vet suggested an allergy and i have tried to work out what it could be from changing to a different hay etc.
anyone any ideas? she is due back at the vet once the course of anti-biotics is done.

Just back from vets with Mischa. they are going to take her in tomorrow and do a series of tests while she is sedated. going to do swabs on her nose and check her teeth although they think she is a bit young for teeth problems. they mentioned the possibility of pasteurella/microplasms but hopefully the swab will tell us what the problem is.
