I'm sure someone noticed something like this on their bun recently, possibly was Scamp (wild bun of Tamsin)... will see if I can find the thread...

EDIT: Nope, sorry I don't think it was Tamsin and cannot find the one I was thinking of in the search. I'm sure there was a photo on the post too and it turned out to be a glad of some sort. But best go to the vets to have it checked out :)

Gabriel has one too, my vet didn't know what it was either :roll: I think we decided it must be a cyst and just to keep an eye on it.
 
oh right.it isnt any bigger n doesnt seem to bother her.ill leave it till monday n if its any bigger or redder ill take her the vets,ive rang them n they arent sure wat it could be.x
 
My bun had one on his ear when i got him - it's just a hard lump within the ear, not sore, even when squeezed and hasn't changed in size or anything. I've noticed he has a tiny one on another part of his ear and although I keep an eye on it, I don't see any cause for concern.

Would be interested in what your Vet has to say on it though.

:)
 
hya rang my local vets n he said as long as it doesnt get any bigger or inflamed then its nothing worry about.hes seen quite afew buns with them n there nothing.which is a relief.x
