Pinky’s eyes and nose

[Moonlightbunny66]

I know I post a lot on the forums, I’m just new to having bunnies! I just got Pinky and Muffin on the 16th of August.

I’ve noticed Pinky has a white bump with fur on it on the pink fleshy part of his nose. He’s also had a little redness and a tiny bit of crustiness on the inner front corners of his eyes. I also can’t tell if the bumps on top of his nose are just fur stuck together or more bumps with fur on top. I rubbed it and maybe it feels a little hard but I’m not sure. I know I made a forum about the bumps, but I just added it here in case it’s related.

He sneezes a few times a day (small sneezes). Muffin also sneezes sometimes though. Is any of this to be concerned about? I’m worried if I take them to the vet because I’ll probably not be allowed to go in and they’d be scared. But I need to get to get them checked into a vet for annual check ups anyway. They were also neutered the week before I got them. Here’s photos of his eyes and nose. It may be hard to see. :/

I would get them to a vet, seeing as you want to get them vet checked anyway there’s no real reason to delay it.

Not being allowed into the vets is only stressful for us, its no worse than a regular appointment  for them, if anything its probably easier because they dont associate you with the stress.

There’s a lot of reasons for rabbits to sneeze it can be something very minor, or something more serious, but if it is something like an infection the sooner you start treatment the better. The longer respiratory infections are left untreated in rabbits the lower the prognosis for full recovery.

@Dface Thank you! I’ll see if I can get a vet appointment. I haven’t been to a small animal vet in a long time so I hope the one I can find is good. :/
