A rabbit allergy test is a blood test that checks whether your immune system reacts to proteins found in rabbit fur, skin flakes, saliva, or urine. It is usually ordered when someone has allergy symptoms around rabbits and the cause is unclear.

What it measures

  • Specific IgE to rabbit epithelium — Antibodies your body makes against rabbit skin and fur proteins.
  • Specific IgE to rabbit saliva — Antibodies against proteins in rabbit saliva.
  • Specific IgE to rabbit urine — Antibodies against proteins in rabbit urine.
  • Total IgE — A general measure of allergic antibody levels, sometimes included for context.
  • Serum protein control — A comparison marker used to confirm the test worked correctly.

Who it is for

A doctor or allergist typically orders this test for people with sneezing, itchy eyes, coughing, or hives after contact with rabbits, or when pet allergy is suspected.

Preparation

No fasting is needed. Tell your clinician about any medications you take, because some drugs can affect allergy test results.

Results and what they mean

Results are reported as a level or class for each rabbit protein, often from negative to strongly positive. A clinician interprets these numbers alongside your symptoms and history. This is general information, not medical advice; discuss your results with a qualified healthcare professional.

Frequently asked questions

Does a positive result mean I am allergic to rabbits?

Not always. A positive result shows sensitivity, but only a clinician can confirm whether it causes your symptoms.

Can I keep my pet rabbit if the test is positive?

That depends on your symptoms and your clinician's advice. Discuss options such as reducing exposure with your doctor.

Is this test painful?

It uses a standard blood draw, so you may feel a brief pinch when the needle goes in.

How long do results take?

Most results are ready in 1 to 3 business days, though timing can vary by lab.
