Honey Bun is mine and my boyfriend’s baby bunny. We got her on April 8th and she was about 1 month old. She eats lots of Timothy hay, pellets, an occasional frosted donut (made for rabbits) and she drinks plenty of water. Her mother appeared to be a Holland lop although I am not positive (I’ll attach a picture). We have had her for about one month now and we absolutely adore her.

Honey Bun hops around our house freely and happily, scaring our cat Babies and trying to cuddle our black lab/visla mix named Lucy. She is a good little binkier and everything seemed to be going great until 2 days ago.

Her left ear has gone limp. Like I said, the mom was a loppy eared bunny, a Holland lop if I had to guess but Honey Bun used to have perky ears like her father. I sniffed around, there’s no smell. I looked, no gunk. There are no mites I can see and no brown crusty junk bunnies usually get with mites. She’s always been a bit wobbly, I attributed it to her being a baby and her head is not tilted. She has not (thankfully) stopped drinking or eating. Her appetite seems fine and she is constantly letting out pellets like the little pooper she is.

The only bad signs are the limp left ear, constant scratching at said ear, and aggressive head shakes that clearly indicate she’s uncomfortable.

What could this mean? How can I make her comfortable? Anything else this could be than mites or an infection? The ear isn’t red or anything. Just floppy.

Any help is appreciated.
