eye crusties

It could be just "sleepy-dust", like humans get. If there is just a little in the corner you can gently wipe it away with some slightly damp cotton wool.

If you think there's too much you should seek veterinary advice asap
 
I TOTALLY agree....there are SO many things that could be causing it if it is a lot, including eye infections like conjunctivitis, or dental problems. I would DEFINATELY get it looked at if it is a quite a lot on a regular basis.
 
We had a bunny here for bonding a couple of weeks ago who liked to eat his 'sleepy dust' his owners picked it off and fed it to him :shock:

He also licked human eyes to eat their sleepy dust too.....gross!

The best thing to do is bath it off with a flannel or damp cotton wool, but they normally clean it off themselves when they wash.
 
sleepy dust - never heard that word for it :lol:
I am very sad in the fact that I help my bunnies get it off :oops: I was like that with my dog though to :lol:
 
I've never heard it called sleepy dust either - it really made me laugh :lol:
I always wipe away the morning sleep from Loki's eyes - he gets really cross with me because he's usually trying to eat his breakfast at the time!
 
Of course it's called sleepy dust :shock: The sandman throws it in your eyes at night when he brings your dreams to you :D
