Unfortunately I’m not longer at home (it’s my mom’s bunny; I told her just to immediatly bring him to the vet if it gets worse), so I’m not certain of his status (she hasn’t said anything so I’m assuming it hasn’t changed; she was pretty freaked out), but at the time it was *sort of* under his eye… but not bordering on it? Between the tip of his nose and his eye, a little closer to his right side, my left facing him. It did not appear to be irritated (that’s actually the only reason I even mentioned the sore hocks– he’s a rex so I know all about how prone they are; his poor little feet have gotten much better since we’ve had him, however, my point of comparison was that he won’t let us touch there) because he didn’t care if you petted him there at all, and he’s a pretty sensitive little bunny, so my assumption is that it doesn’t hurt. It also did not have a bump (I would have brought him to the vet for fear of an abcess if that had been the case), and I don’t think it could be any sort of insect/parasite related thing because (a) he’s not allowed outside, (b) it’s the dead of winter in New England and it’s *way* too cold for bugs and (c) he is a single bunny and therefore couldn’t have caught anything from another animal. I was hoping maybe someone else had seen something like this, but I’m starting to think that he may have just irritated his nose tossing his (admittedly pointy from biting) furniture around and scraped some fur off. u___u It comes off so easily from rexes…..

Monty recently had his nails clipped, but they grow very quickly– they’re always a bit long. He’s also *always* shedding– he’s the sheddiest animal I’ve ever had. >___< I look like a crazy cat lady after I've been petting him. However, his eyes are bright and shiny and clear and never leaky, so I don't think that's it. Thanks for the advice, though.
