The symptoms for pasteurella in rabbits are:
- Cold-like symptoms: runny nose, runny eyes, yellow paws (from wiping nose and eyes), sneezing.
- Head tilt aka wry neck (torticollis): head tilt ranging from mild to severe, poor balance, rabbit may walk in circles and be unable to eat or use the litter
- Abscesses: infections in wounds, or on the breasts or genitals
All of these symptoms can also signify other illnesses. For example, cold-like symptoms can be caused by dental disease, and head tilt could indicate the rabbit's had a stroke.
If your rabbit's shown any of these symptoms, seek vet attention as soon as possible.
