Hi
I am new here and have two rabbits. One is very old and I have noticed that one of his eyes, his fur is damp underneath. It appears fine in himself and I can't see any discharge. He is a bit of a grumpy bunny and bites sometimes so it is difficult to get to his eyes to bathe it.
Should I be worried?
Many Thanks

Hi :wave:
I would pop him to the vets, might be dental problems which is very common, particularly in lops.

I agree. Also, if you take him to the vets, it will put your mind at rest anyway.

Hi, I had the same problem with one of my buns and we took her to the vets and first they just gave us eye drops that didn't work, we paid a lot of money for that and a swab before we took her to another vet where they did an xray which showed that it was her teeth causing the weepy eye.
Good luck with your bun:)

Hi
Thanks for all your replys. I took him to the vets yesterday and they said that he had a blocked tear duct and he has to go in and have it flushed.
Thanks
