My poor boy has been seezing his head off for days now…machine-gun fashion, benadryl or no…although he seems to do a little better when he’s had the benadryl for a few days in tandem, but I don’t use it everyday because I don’t want his bowels being agitated by the antihistamine.

It does seem to be repeating a pattern. Last fall (our trees are already almost bare here) he had more trouble with his sinuses. In spring it seems to get worse too. So along with a rather more dusty than usual large box of hay product this month, I’m guessing he just gets too much irritant in that flattened nose of his to deal with, and it has to come out somehow. (usually with a decent amount of goobers)

Plus Pip has just gone into shedmonster mode. Mimzy can’t even groom himself right now without starting to sneeze. Having exhausted all other avenues for a cause; teeth adjusted, antibiotics tried, habitat cleaning stepped up,…I have to wonder if it really is just allergies?

Is anyone else experiencing a snottier-than-usual bunny at this time of year? If so, please state what kinds of trees/flowers/etc that are either blooiming or dying around you at present. We’ve got birch, aspen, poplar and black spruce for trees. Lots of grasses going to seed  too. Our big seedpod producer right now is the fireweed and it will be thick in the air until snow hits, maybe in the next few weeks.

Not to mention my own sinuses are miserable also. When I feel like I have to take a zyrtec every night I know something’s up (my nose).
