This disease can be passed through various biting insects such as fleas, mites or even mosquitos but it can also be found in your rabbit’s hutch or water bottle and can affect their lungs or genitals. If your rabbit starts to develop a swollen face, ears or genitals contact us immediately to get your rabbit booked in with one of our Vets to be checked.

If your rabbit shows any symptoms such as:

• Spasms
• Blood around the nose
please contact one of our Nurses for an immediate appointment as the disease progresses very quickly.
