Lisa, yes they do (as do all rodents), but guinea pigs & hamsters, mice.... don't typically live as long as rabbits, so I think overall there is less chance of developing those complications....or perhaps I was just lucky.

Ho long can rabbits live?  My guinea pig was.....7-8 yrs old when she passed..and it was NOT normal..I felt so horrible for her...actually since there eseem to be some rodent savy peeps on..Ill ask about it...After it happened  I spoke with a vet who said it sounded like she had a tumor...or something..in her brain...rupture...killing her ALMOST instantly...  I woke up to her squeeliing terribly, running around her cage..aimlessly, running into the sides of it head on, bleeding out of her nose and ears...and eyes...I rushed to her and picked her up, she was pantinng heavily when she collapsed and was gone...she was or seemd 100% fine up until that moment....the vet I spoke to said it was fairly common?
