Seizures

Seizures, fits, or convulsions are a manifestation of abnormal brain activity. They are often caused by infectious agents, toxins, or metabolic disorders. Some rabbits may have seizures triggered by stressful events such as excessive handling.

The following are some videos with examples of seizures.

Please note that full body seizures are different than butt twitches and binkies that may occur in rabbits due to happiness. Please see Understanding your rabbit for example videos.
