Hi everyone!
I'm very new to this forum (I joined today).
I came out of desperation to get some advice for my rabbit Mango.
She was given to us by a woman who was going to university and couldn't rely on family to care for her 4 chickens and 4 rabbits - which were housed together.
When we brought her home we noticed she was wheezing and had a slight head tilt, which the vet treated with Panacur and antibiotics.
Since then, we've been back and forth to the vets over a span of 3 years as her nose still "whistles" a little when she breathes and grunts when grooming herself and I am paranoid that her breathing is still quite heavy. We have 3 other rabbits and we can actually see and hear her breathe, which doesn't happen with the others.
We've been to two vets and they've both checked her lungs and heart and said that everything is fine, but I don't understand why she's breathing so heavily?
We've also had her neutered and she has become quite aggressive towards the rabbit she was housed with
Does anyone have any advice on what could be happening? I'm a student and I really want to see her healthy and happy before going back to university in September.
