Max is sick

[Neveah1122]

So I just got my second rabbit Max on Monday, April 16th and I realized around 1-2 weeks ish ago that he began to having these sneezing fits where he would begin to uncontrollably sneeze, it was so sad to watch and I immediately got very scared and began stressing out though at first I didn’t worry about it as much as I do now, he had been making coughing/gagging/hacking noises which scared me so bad but he just began to have like congested breathing and he’s had white discharge coming from his nose, he eats his pellets and veggies normally, drinks normally, and poops normally in fact besides the obvious he seems like he’s fine but I know he’s not and I’m worried, I’m not sure when I could be able to take him to my vet as there isn’t an obvious time I could take him, I’m currently putting electrolytes in his water but are there any suggestions of things I could do for him to help?

He sounds like he has a respiratory infection and should see the vet as soon as possible. If he stops eating or pooping you will be dealing with stasis on top of all of infection, so better to take him ASAP rather than wait for him to get worse.

He needs to go to the vet asap to treat the infection. The longer it goes without treatment the more difficult it will be to kill and the more severe the consequences. Do your best to make an appointment with a rabbit experienced vet only, not a normal dog cat vet.
