A member asked:

Bitten by my rabbit 7-8 days ago hes not eating and acting lethargic, getting my shots today there were mice in our house can he get rabies from them?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Rabies/MICE: Small rodents, including mice, have rarely been associated with rabies and thee have been no documented cases of transmission to humans from a mouse bite. If the rabbit is being monitored by a qualified vet, you should be okay to watch the rabbit for the 10 days to see if it becomes symptomatic. Alternatively, the rabbit could be put down and examined to se if it was infected, but very unlikely.
