Idiopathic Epileptic Seizures in Rabbits

Rabbits, much like humans, can suffer from epileptic seizures. Occurring when specific neurons in the brain reach a point of “hyper excitability.” This, in turn, can lead to bouts of involuntary body movement or function in the rabbit. You must be very careful with the rabbit during these periods of excited cerebral activity, as the seizures can cause brain damage.

Symptoms and Types

The signs and symptoms of seizures may depend on the cause for the seizure. Seizures can be due to an epileptic episode or may be non-epileptic, caused by genetic malformations or lesions in the brain. Regardless of the type, some signs of epilepsy that are relatively common include:

Rolling of the body and signs of distress
Paddling of the hands or limbs
Mental confusion
Blindness
Head tilt
Loss of muscle tone
Thick, white and creamy fluid or pus found in the ear
Fainting (although this is rare in rabbits)

Causes

Certain breeds of rabbit may be more likely to experience seizures than others. For example, dwarf breeds are more likely to have suppressed immune systems, and thus are more likely to become exposed to an infection with Encephalitozoon cuniculi, which can cause seizures. White, blue-eyed rabbits and lop-eared rabbits are also more likely to to develop forms of epilepsy or seizures.

Other causes for seizures include:

Metabolic causes, including low blood sugar
Toxicities, including exposure to heavy metals and other chemicals
Cardiovascular diseases
Genetic or externally caused epilepsy
A head injury leading to brain damage
Structural causes like brain lesions, bacterial infections or parasitic infection (e.g., toxoplasmosis)



If this didn't help you.. Google is your friend.

I wanted to copy-paste some things from Google but Rumble got it first.
Anyways good luck with your rabbit mate, he'll be alright, don't worry

Jaki

I dont know. She wick her head and we dont know if shes fainting but maybe. And when she get on her back she get panic and try to get up. But shes cant cause her right side is kind of strait and she cant really bend her legs it looks like. But how do we cure her if she has it? Becuase it seems to hurt. Happends like every 2 day now

Hmm the vet ppl dont know either? Thats weird. She should get meds ASAP. If it helps, I bet she doesn't feel much during the seizures. But still be very careful!
Hope she gets well !!!

aww! martin i'm very sorry for you! i really hope it gets better soon! take care!

But as you maybe know we are a very poor famaly. And just to check what it is cost around maybe around 250 dollars. And then if its epilepsy it cost around 180 dollars every 3 month. So i hope its just something that goes away. Or my mam says we maybe need to put her down

She died yesterday . R.I.P irma

I'm so sad after hearing that, Martin. Hope you will keep in memory all the good times you had together, which I hope will help you to deal with this loss.
