Rabbit’s diseases: Prevention and treatment - Heat Prostration

Heat Prostration

It eventually happened due to extreme hot weather and insufficient ventilation.

Symptoms
Rabbits breathe rapidly and if goes worse blood may come out from the nose and mouth.

Treatment and prevention
Provide plenty of ventilation. Sprinkling water on the rabbitry roof may help reduce the temperature. You can put individually exhausted rabbits on wet burlap or immerse them in lukewarm water so the body temperature gradually drops. Provide bottles with ice on their cage where they can lie on to reduce the prostration.
