Hi there,
My rabbit tom is having fits/seizures, it started a few months ago & me & my wife were really worried as it happend a couple of times. We took him to the vet but they had no idea what it was. It stopped for a few weeks when we changed his food to rabbit pellets as suggested on another forum, but it has started again now. He has at least one everyday. He starts by rubbing his nose then he falls back and starts to thrash about stiffening up. He pushes his head right back and his mouth is wide open like he is choking. Then he stops but is shaken and scared and runs round into things and I have to hold him as he is going so fast he could knock himself out. Once he has calmed down he is back to normal, playing and running around as though nothing has happened. He seems the happiest, healthiest rabbit ever!
Please Help.
