Lops and their ears

[Mrs. PBJ]

Do lops clean there ears different. She has a vet appointment in two weeks but she seem to be messing with one ear a lot.

Her left one she seem to be cleaning it funny like rubbing down.

Witch would make sense cause storm rubs up. and his ears are up I can take her in sooner if need be.

But she has already eaten and drank I have to get her off that water bottle though.

Sabrina pulls her ears down and towards her mouth when she is cleaning them. Then she rubs it from the base (at her head) towards the tip...

That's what Fluffy would do too.

Ditto the others. My bun grabs and ear in his paws and pulls his ear down towards his mouth so he can lick it.

She may be totally fine. If you notice unusual behavior regarding the ears then check the ears out. Look inside the ears for signs of ear mites. Feel the base of the ear to see if it extra warm for signs of infection. And check around the perimeter of the ear for any scratches or abscesses that may be causing the rabbit to give it extra attention. If all appears normal then your bunny is probably fine and there is probably no need for a vet checkup.

I guess I should update that I thinks it was a nervous thing.
She seem fine and cleans both ears the same way. She goes in for her spay on April 9th
