Hi everyone,
The past few days I have noticed my bunny (2 year old Holland Lop) has been occasionally shaking his head. It’s not to the point where it’s excessive but I do want to keep an eye on him. I did my best to take a look in his ears tonight and didn’t see anything abnormal, but the lighting wasn’t great so I’ll take another look tomorrow. I did a little bit of research and the possibility of ear mites came up. However, he’s an indoor bunny and my only bunny so are ear mites still a possibility since they are spread between bunnies? I do have a dog in the house but they aren’t around each other and my dog hasn’t had any ear-related symptoms.
I’m sure it could probably be the start of an ear infection, too (although not sure why this would happen). This is all new to me though since he is my first bunny - any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!
