Rabbit
Rabbit allergies include two main aspects: food intolerance to rabbit meat and allergic reactions caused by exposure to pet rabbits. Both can lead to symptoms, so it is important for those sensitive to either eating rabbit meat or being around rabbits as pets to be aware and cautious.

What causes reactions to rabbit meat or pet rabbits?
Allergic reactions to pet rabbits are caused by proteins in the rabbit’s dander, saliva, and urine, which can become airborne. Reactions to rabbit meat are due to dietary intolerance to certain proteins found in the meat.
What precautions should I take if I'm allergic to pet rabbits?
Consider not keeping rabbits as pets if you have confirmed allergies. If exposure is unavoidable, minimize contact, ensure good ventilation, and clean habitats regularly to reduce allergic symptoms.
How can I manage dietary intolerance to rabbit meat?
Avoid consuming rabbit meat and be cautious with food labels and dishes at restaurants that may contain rabbit. Opt for alternative protein sources that don’t trigger symptoms.
