Yes, I would say abscess too. He will need to see a vet to have it treated.

Oh my goodness she’s so cute! She reminds me of my bunny Starlight.  🙂 Is she also a double mane lionhead mix?

This looks like sth thst needs veterinary attention. The cause could be several things, it’s not possible to say what withiut a proper exam. If your bun isnt spayed the cause could be hormonal. Another possibility is a bacterial infection. Treatment would differ depending on the cause. It needs to be treated though,  because this is most likely…[Read more]

I’m not completely sure what Im seeing here, but it seems to be a rather big bump? In which case my guess would be an abscess, probably from a wound that has got infected. It could have been s very small wound, like a puncture wound from a claw.

good luck I really hope you find the rabbits forever person

They did give him meloxicam to give at home. He won’t eat cc from a plate (I have tried that before). I keep the cc in a closet, is it supposed to be in the freezer? Also he did eat hay before. How long should I wait until I give him cc? Sorry for all the questions I am just worried because he has had GI problems before. ( I know it’s common for…[Read more]

Hay is the most effortful food for a rabbit to eat since it is a sandpaper texture and they grind it before swallowing, so it’s definitely common for it to be the first food to be ignored if there is any mouth discomfort. I’d give it time and just monitor, especially if he’s eating everything else.

His gums could still be sore after the trim. Did you get any metacam for him to give at home?

If he’s eating everything else and seems normal, I dont think you need to syringe feed him just yet. If he’d eat CC from a plate it’d be good, but most buns wont do that. (It’s of course always good to have some CC in the household though, if stored in…[Read more]

Also I forgot to say that he is acting normal otherwise and is still pooping.

This happens with cats as well. The cat or bun smells “strange” when they’ve been to the vet. The best thing is to bring both buns to the vet, for simple procedures the vet will probably not mind.  I’ll be bringing both my buns when one of them is due for his yearly vaccination in July.
