QuestionHI,
I have a 12 week old dutch rabbit who is constantly sneezing and occasionally wheezing during the day.
She is also constantly grooming herself and she also has soft motions.
I haven't taken her to the vet's yet but would it be recommended to do so.
thanks for your help
AnswerDear Kristy,
Yes, I would strongly recommend that you get bunny to a good rabbit vet for a full check up. You can find one here:

Sneezing isn't normal, and is a sign of upper respiratory infection. In young rabbits, this can become very serious if not treated appropriately, as described here:

Also, the runny stools are a sign of illness/stress, and should be addressed. You can read more about the causes, diagnosis and treatment of this problem here:

I hope this helps get you started on the road to her recovery. Please write back if you have any other questions.
Dana
