Heh, when I first read this, I was wondering how you sneezed in rabbits--was it the size of the sneezes or the type? Ri-ight, wow. The rabbits are the ones sneezing, I knew that. Can people get the snuffles too though? Or do we have to just call it a cold? I guess cute and fluffy things should have cute sounding names for the things that go wrong with them, but it makes me feel a little left out.
