Keep the e-collar on, it’s only a few days. You could take it off when supervised for some out time or to ensure she’s eating and drinking, but that’s what’s going to keep the incision clean and uneaten.

I agree with K&K, just have to say it does look adorably sad =/ With an emphasize on adorable!

When you can supervise her all the time she can go without the e-collar if you see no tendencies to over-interest in her incision, but you can’t leave her to herself without the collar. Did the vet give you painkillers for her? Sometimes pain will make a bunny lick/bite at an incisision-site. Bunnies need a higher dose metacam (meloxicam) than previously thought, they metabolize metacam faster than f ex dogs.
