Hey everyone.
My oldest bun, Thor, developed a sneeze. I noticed it last night and called the vet first thing this morning. Soon after he had a sneezing fit, of 6 or 7 sneezes in a row, lasting a few seconds. Thor will be 4yr old in May and I’ve had him since he was only a few weeks. Nothing has really changed, and he was just at the vet last week to get his ears checked (he has 3 small growths in his ears that they said were just warts) and his health was fine. The vet is very busy, but I have an appointment for later tomorrow afternoon. Since it’s over a day away, and I’m a very concerned and worried bunny mama, I figured I would ask for some advice. Is it okay to wait until tomorrow since he seems to still be eating and moving around? Is there something I could do to help him right now? Should he go to another vet? Nothing in his diet or environment has changed recently, so Im worried he’s actually sick. Any suggestions?

It’s possible he has the start of an infection or illness. Discharge from the nose can be a sign of several things, but if it is white or yellow instead of clear, then it usually indicates illness. Clear discharge is associated with allergies.
I don’t see why you shouldn’t be ok waiting until tomorrow. If he’s still eating, drinking and pooping that’s good. Unless he develops any more symptoms that seem serious I would just wait until then. Let us know how it goes
