Rabbits and Ticks

Did you know that ticks aren’t just pests to cats and dogs but also to rabbits? If you find a tick on your rabbit try to remove it by grabbing it as close to the rabbit’s skin as possible and pulling straight up. Do not pinch or squeeze it as it may release venom into the rabbit. If necessary, call your vet for assistance. If you let your rabbit roam outside, make sure you do a tick check of his fur and skin before bringing him indoors. You should also check your rabbit’s cage for any signs of more ticks. If you have other pets in the home make sure you check them too as they could be the one that brought the tick indoors. If you see a whelp on your rabbit that is red or looks like a bullseye it could be from a tick. Call your veterinarians Wichita, KS to find out how to treat the bite.
