        So I have a 2nd bunny which name is Snow and I think she is nearly 1 and one day I was patting her and say her saw her nose and it looked like someone cut the middle part, I thought she must’ve got herself injured while doing her stuff on the lawn, I think it’s been a week since I saw the injury and today I was investigating it and say a little whitish thing and I don’t know what exactly it is, please help I don’t want her to die or sick

          It could be a little bit of pus. You could try and rinse the area with saline eyewash for humans or water that you’ve boiled for a few minutes, then let cool. You can use triple antibiotic ointment (without an added painkiller) on bunnies, or Fucidine if you can get that. Only use very little. Is your bunny eating and drinking and pooping or does she seem to be in pain?

          She could need oral antibiotics, but you’ll need to take her to a vet on Monday for that.

            Thank you for the reply! she doesn’t seem to be in pain as I touched it quite few time last time and didn’t even flinch and I haven’t seen anything new in her daily naughty behaviour. She eats and drinks, the only difference is she got an injury on the nose, doesn’t look like puss as I seem to touch is and doesn’t feel like a puss. Is it safe to keep an eye on her for few weeks and see how is it goes?

              It doesn’t look too alarming to me, so if you keep it clean (rinse it) and put on ointment, I think you can just observe her for the time being. Obviously if her nose gets swollen or starts to ooze or you notice a foul smell or she loses her appetite, you need a vet. But I’d start by keeping it clean and observing it.

              (Please observe that we’re not vets here, so we can’t give medical advice. I can just say what I’d do. It’s always safest to consult with a vet.)
