My rabbit is suffering from itching! What now?

Rabbits, like other animals, can suffer from itching and skin problems. In some cases, this is completely natural, while in others, it may be caused by diseases transmitted through hay, insects, or even their owner.

Shedding

Panikeer niet meteen wanneer je je konijn ziet plukken in zijn vacht. Een konijn verhaart twee keer per jaar, dus haren plukken van de wam (de huidplooi onder de kin) of de buik is perfect natuurlijk gedrag voor konijnen. Vrouwtjes doen het ook vaak wanneer ze willen paren of (schijn)drachtig zijn.

Persistent itching

Is your rabbit still suffering from persistent itching? Then it may be dealing with fur mites, fleas, fungi, or another disease. Especially in summer, you should watch out for myiasis, a condition caused by fly larvae. Flies can lay eggs in rabbit droppings, which can end up in the matted fur of the animal. These larvae can then penetrate the subcutaneous tissue, leading to serious health issues. That’s why it’s crucial to regularly clean your rabbit’s enclosure during the summer and maintain strict hygiene to prevent infestations.
