Need Opinions
I need some advice. I have been in contact with a girl regards to her rabbit Achillies, she needs to rehome him. He seems like a very sweet bunny however when asked about his health she said he has no health issues that she is aware of. However he has sneezed since he was a young rabbit and sometimes has a runny nose. Her vet has assured her its nothing to worry about. She took him to the vet today and his health, weight and teeth are fine. He is on a course of anti biotics and said it’s a case of managing his flair ups but nothing to be concerned about.
My only concern is, I would want to bond him if I could take him. However if what he has (I am guessing snuffles) would this spread to other rabbits? And how difficult is it to manage?

Re: Need Opinions
There are differing opinions on this, but personally I'd never see it as a problem. I've always paired up bunsters with pasteurella etc - Go for it!

I was told by a specialist that it's contagious in a closed, unventilated and stressful environments, like a rabbit farm, but that between buns who live in a ventilated relaxed environment, the risks of cross contamination are there, but minimal. i.e. it's improbable, but possible.
In November we had a bond on here with one snuffles bun, and one not, and so far the other is fine

I am not sure what to do as he is very sweet lion head cross, his about 5 years old and I was thinking of bonding him with one of Dee Millens rabbits (young or a retired one), but either way I don’t want it spreading to a healthy bun. I am not sure what to do for the best.
