I. Symptoms of rabbit infectious rhinitis
Rabbit infectious rhinitis is mainly affected by Pasteurella and Bordetella It is caused by the common influence of other pathogens. In most cases, Pasteurella is parasitized in the nasal cavity of rabbits, but rabbits do not get sick under normal circumstances. The air quality in the rabbit house is the main factor affecting this phenomenon. In addition, when the weather changes, it will also lead to Rabbits developed a stress response and then became ill. The manifestations of rabbit rhinitis include: frequent sneezing, and the number of sneezing will gradually increase. It may be a lot of sneezing continuously at a time, and slowly accompanied by nasal discharge, but rabbits usually pass and shake their head. The snot is thrown off, so the owner rarely sees the rabbit’s snot. However, if the owner finds that the hair around the rabbit’s nostrils is wispy and dirty, and sees the rabbit frequently sneezing, the owner should pay attention, which is likely to be a rabbit rhinitis attack. In the early stage of rabbit rhinitis, the owner can use Banlangen granules to treat the sick rabbit. If it does not improve, try to use small animal rhinitis to give it a nasal spray. In the later stage, injections are required to cooperate with the treatment. Rabbit rhinitis must be treated as soon as possible, otherwise it will be more difficult to cure, resulting in endless troubles.
Note: If the rabbit is sneezing while eating or drinking, it is usually not rhinitis, and the owner does not need to worry.
The sneezing caused by rabbit rhinitis is usually accompanied by white purulent secretions, so the owner can pay attention to it.
If the rabbit is simply sneezing without a white purulent discharge, it may be caused by:
1. If the rabbit sneezes only when eating, it is very likely that there is too much powder in the powder of the rabbit food or pasture, and the rabbit is choked. For this, the owner must Before feeding the rabbit, sieve the powder from the feed and then feed the rabbit, and then pay attention to observe whether the sneezing improves.
2. If the rabbit also sneezes at other times, it may be that the rabbit has a cold or rhinitis. Young rabbits have high requirements for temperature, and the temperature should be 20-25 ℃. If the indoor temperature If it is lower than 20℃, the owner should take measures to keep the rabbit warm.
Treatment: Rabbit rhinitis, the owner can brew Banlangen granules or Shuanghuanglian granules or use one of them, such as Shuanghuanglian oral liquid, to feed the rabbits in the early stage. The dosage of granules is: half a bag/day; Shuanghuanglian oral liquid can be fed 1ml per day. Observe for a week, if the rabbit rhinitis still does not improve, you need to take the rabbit to the pet hospital for a large rhinitis injection, such as nasal cough stop.
Reminder: Most of the pathogens that cause the onset of infectious rhinitis in rabbits are opportunistic pathogens, which means that the owner’s management level of rabbits is the cause of rabbit rhinitis. One of the important factors of the attack, it is hoped that the owner can maintain a high level of management of the rabbit.
