How to Keep Rabbits Cool in Summer
Rabbits do best at 15–20°C and can die of heatstroke above that. In summer, keep water bowls/bottles filled, clip long-haired breeds short (not shaved), move cages to a breezy shady spot, dab the ears with water to cool them, and offer watery fruit and vegetables in moderation. Never aim a fan or AC directly at a rabbit — it causes colds, not cooling.

Consistent prevention is far cheaper than treating outbreaks.
