rabbits can't give humans pinworms, nor can humans give rabbits pinworms. I mean, I suppose technically, some rabbit pinworm somewhere could mutate enough to be able to infect a human and become the subject of scientific literature around the world, but my non PhD self says that seems unlikely.
Catherine O'Reilly Syphacia muris is zoonotic and commonly found in humans. Caged rabbits dont just get pinworm. I'd be concerned rodents are in or around the rabbit feed or cages.
