  Hi!
  
  Could you let me know if I should remove my bun’s ear from his water dish? Did he drop his ear in the bowl on purpose or accidentally?
  
  The last 2 inches of his ear (his ear is quite long) is in the bowl. He’s sleeping right now. This happens pretty frequently when he’s lying near his bowl. When I see it, I reposition it, but wonder if it’s not supposed to be there. It’s not terribly hot right now, but is he trying to cool off??
  
  Thank you for your help! I am pretty curious about this.

  I don’t think it’s a big deal at all; If it’s getting wet in an area that can’t dry (like the chin) maybe but the ear should be no biggie
  
  You could get a crock that attaches so that it can be placed a little higher and then I’m sure the ear couldn’t get in there!

  Oh phew, thanks!
  
  My crock attaches, I can move it higher. We started out with reg bowls, then heavy crocks – he flips (or tries to) everything.
