  hello from Scotland,.
  I’m hoping someone may have had a similar experience and be able to offer advice as our vet is stumped!
  Our 8 week old mixed breed boy bunny has both ears lopping to his right. It’s making his head tilt to his right and pulling is left eyelid open. The vet has suggested massaging the muscle between the ears and Bob is happy to have this done regularly, but it’s not having the desired effect. Does anyone have experience of this? Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

  I haven’t come across this problem before. Could you perhaps weigh the left ear down to the left side with sth you could tape onto the ear (perhaps with kinesio tape)? Dog owners tape puppies’ ears if they don’t lop or won’t stand up (depending on how the breed is supposed to look).
