        Bugz has been shaking his head alot and also scratching one ear.  I have cleaned the ear out and that seems to help for a few days.  he does not have anything in it, there is not sign of fleas and he is molting again so maybe it is just a blow out?  Maybe I should treat them for fleas anyway?  Maybe I should just take him into the vet when i take Anya this wednesday?

        Otherwise both of them are fine, eating and exercising and pooping well

          I’d take him in then, that way you won’t get caught out over the Easter weekend incase something develops. Is Anya in for her spay Wednesday?

            if there is an infection or foreign object or irritant deep in the ear canal that is not usually visible by peeking in the ears- an otoscope allows a vet to get a good look at the ear canal and ear drum.

              Yes Anya is in for her spay on Wednesday as i have from the 31st till the 7th off work so I figure this is the best time to do it. I have a funny scope thing that I use for the dogs to look down their ears as one of my dogs as a nervous twitch which makes him scratch his ears but i would take him into the vet and there would be nothing there so I used that to look and i can’t see anything. Will see if I can get him an app on Wednesday

                I would get the vet to look-he could have some wax or something in the canal that you can’t see-even with a scope it can be hard

                  Yeah they could not fit him in today as I rocked up with him to pick up anya and a lady came screaming in with a bunny wrapped in a towel and what looked like blood so I will take him back when Anya has her check up

                    Ok well Bugz went for his check up and the vet said his ears where the cleanest she had ever seen on a bunny (feeling proud as I do clean out their ears), She figures that maybe there was some harir in there that was annoying him. we re clipped their nails and both anya and bugz where perfect little bunnies. She was not happy that anya and bugz where back to sharing a cage so soon after her spay but while on the table bugz was giving her a head clean and got all upset when she was on the table and he could not see her so I had to pick him up then she weighed Anya and said she was a bit on the chubby side and was patting her while she talk to me about their diet and when she said “Oh i really think she could lose just a little bit don’t want her to get to fat” bugz bit her! I was trying to hard not to laugh! I am sure she just put her hand somewhere that he was trying to groom but the timing was priceless! Then he thumped at her! To cute! i mean maybe he just likes his bunwife on the curvey side!
