    HELP! What is this??? Insect on rabbit

    Very new bunny owner here! I noticed my bunny has some thin hair around the back of his ears, but then I thought that maybe they were small bald spots. Also, as I was taking a picture of the supposed bald spots, a little creature ran right across the spot!!! Luckily the photo was live, so I...

    Rabbits fur thinning on back?

    Recently I've noticed one of my rabbits shedding a lot in a short line down her back. I was grooming her and saw a lot of dandruff and some scabbing (I'm wondering maybe from her biting at her back since she has thick fur?). I thought it was only her, but after looking at my other rabbits I...

    Crusty rabbit nose

    My bunny is currently receiving treatment for mites. His nose started to get crust and dried. What concerns me the most is that he has black parts in his nose. Could it be caused by mites or a different condition? I just took him to the vet and 2 days later the black thing appeared.

    Help with ear scab/scratching

    I’ve had Rambo now for about a month now who we keep as a free roaming indoor bunny. I noticed he was scratching a lot and recently shaking his head. I took him to the vets two days ago and they checked his ears and took a skin sample but couldn’t find any mites and said his ears looked healthy...

    So, back in July, I noticed these little like, spots in my bunnies fur. It was like the odd gray spot attached to his fur. We did a treatment of Revolution, and then another three weeks later.

    Safe Mite Treatment for 7 Week Old Baby Lop

    Hi everyone, We have a 7 week old lop (his mum passed away when he was 5.5 weeks old, which is why we have him so young), and I have just noticed since bringing him home 2 days ago that he has mites. Everywhere online says that you can only use flea treatments after 8 weeks so I have two...

    Bunny has these specks on his fur

    The vet doesn’t know what they are and frankly he’s been useless. He did not administer revolution or advantage as he came to the conclusion it’s not fleas or fur mites. These bugs don’t move it looks like but I picked one up as small as they seem and they were moving! You can barely notice them...

    Fur and ear mites

    I’ve been having this problem for a few months now. I have a nursing Flemish giant rabbit that has ear mites on both of her ears (they look really bad/bloody and crusty) and has fur mites around her tail in which I noticed she got when she gave birth (which was 3 weeks ago). I also have a male...

    3 months sick

    Hi! My 6 year old rabbit has been having health issues for three months now. He started with a wheezing sound from his nose, I took him to his vet and he gave him some antibiotics. But there was no sign of him getting better. He then started sneezing all day long. Then the vet changed to other...

    Fur mites? I’m really worried

    My bunny has been itching his skin and ears (mostly ears & shaking head) for a few weeks but the vet said it was nothing cause he didn’t have brown crust or any other visible sign. In the past few days I’ve been seeing some suspicious dandruff looking flakes on his fur (sometimes on forehead or...

    Mite treatment

    Hi there, I pulled two Holland Lops from under a house. They are being neutered Friday. They clearly have wool mites, but the vet doing the neutering cannot do medications (which seems weird, but it is the local humane society). The exotic animal vet who WILL treat rabbits wants upwards of $240...

    Are the mites gone?

    hello! I have a hollandHloo that came home with mites. I treated her with ivermectin (paste form, in between her shoulder) waited 10 days, cleaning her cage everyday and litter box everyday. Then after 10 day re applied and did the same for the next 10 days. Now the little region that he had...

    Missing Fur and Dandruff

    I have a 3 year old indoor Holland lol rabbit who I noticed recently is balding and reddened irritation right above the tail with dandruff and patchy hair where I suppose it’s trying to grow back in. It’s not a large area, and he doesn’t have it anywhere else on his body. I’m currently in...

    Should I still give Revolution even if vet isn't 100% sure of diagnosis?

    Our female mini rex, Brie, started with a little lump on the edge of her ear, and now she has lumps on her back rump area and on the other ear. We took her to the vet because we weren't sure if it had to do with molting or something else. Our rabbit savvy vet took some samples, but didn't see...

    Since treating my Bunny with Xeno for Mites he smells bad. Is this normal?

    My Lop is just over twelve months old. I recently found a dandruff patch on his back between his shoulders, so I took him to the vets. They said he had mites (under the skin parasite variety and gave me the spot on XENO plus an anti bacterial wipes for the infected area). Since treatment, my...
