Ok

It’s the same thing with dogs. My dog had a hairless belly for what seemed like ages.

Oh yes show us if you find it!

Ok, that’s what I thought. Wanted to find out for sure. Thanks for your reply 🙂

It can take a very long time for the hair to grow back. It’s not a problem as long as the skin looks good 🙂

Here’s a trusted source with more info on ear mites and treatment options. Content warning, there are some pictures of some very bad cases, but there are also pictures of healthy ears and very early infections for comparison.

I think that all sounds related to both hormonal changes as well as the actual neuter.

I’ve checked deep in the ear and it all looks normal to me. Both ears do. I’ll keep an eye on him for the next few days. For the most part, he seems content. He sleeps normally and seems to be fine. I’m most likely overly cautious.

Thank you for your quick response.

The vets would use ivermectin as well. I can’t really see anything different with them, especially Theo, other than the scabs which have already dried and come off by themselves. I can’t say he didn’t do it to himself as he has also accidentally scratched me in the past and it’s broken skin. I know that he seems…[Read more]

My bunnies like the stacking cups! I’m a bit lazy when it comes to actually using them though. But they really only play with them when they are looking for food in them. You can stack them in creative ways with pellets in them, it ends up being a bunny piñata of sorts.

My favorite was when I had this foster who would grab the cup with the…[Read more]

I haven’t used the product or heard of it until now, but it looks to be an ivermectin based product, so it should be safe if used correctly. The main thing is to never use any product containing fipronil on rabbits, as it is very toxic to them.

The most common treatment for mites in the US is Revolution, active ingredient is selamectin, which is…[Read more]
