So, as some of you may remember Truffle has been speed dating the last month or so. Today, we finally found a pretty good match (she was kind of scared of him, but no animosity towards each other at all). So I brought the little cutie home and put them in the playpen together all day and evening.
Things are moving slowly but the bunny ladies assured me that it looked like it might work out. I haven't officially adopted him though, they said I can bring him back in a week if Truffle is miserable and things don't work out.
Now the scary part... As the evening went on I began to notice that new bunny sneezed quite a bit. Now, Truffle has sneezed a few times in her lifetime but throughout the day I probably heard this bunny sneeze 10 or so times. On closer inspection I could tell his nose was a little runny. Not discharge-like really, more like clear like a normal human runny nose type deal. He also seemed to be breathing quickly, although truffle does too. I couldn't hear any noises sounding like it was hard to breathe though. I checked his eyes- clear and bright. Ears- fine. Poop-normal. Eating/drinking-normal.
I looked up sneezing on google and it led me to a page about Snuffles/Pasteurella. Could this be what this bunny has? If it's likely, then I most definately exposed my poor Truffles to it and that makes me really sad and a terrible mother.
So, what do you think I should do? Contact the rescue and ask them what to do? Should I take it to the vet ASAP, even though I haven't officially adopted him?
What do you think bunny has? I am very scared, but am expecting the worst And, to make things worse, Truffle still seems afraid of the new bunny. I hate putting her under any stress so I have separated them for the night.
