    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions.

lump found on my rabbit

i took my rabbit martha to the vet for her myxi jab and to arrange to book her in to be neutered, they have told me not to arrange for the op yet as they have found a lump on the back of her neck area, it is quite mobile but they want to check it again next week and possibly do a biopsy, has anyone else had a rabbit with a lump? she is 2 years old approx and is a dwarf lionhead.:(
 
Hiya :wave:

Did she have a VHD vacc or any other injections or identichip prior to the day of the myxi vacc? Could be just reaction to one of those.
It could also just be a harmless cyst or abscess (does she live with another or had any recent scrapes in the neck area?), if its mobile thats a good sign :D
 
Sorry to hear about Martha, I hope it's nothing serious. Let us know how you get on once she goes back for the check up/biopsy.
 
hopefully it's nothing to worry about, she hasn't had any previous jabs since january, i was hoping to get her neutered asap as she needs a companion and i'm due to take her to rabbit residence in herts for bonding as soon as she is ok.
 
:wave: mums bunny just had a nasty weird bump which ended up with a hard raised outer edge and dry but nasty coloured in the middle..vet thinks it could be a cat clawhole from mums neighbours cat who appeared in her lounge as hunnybunny was recovering from being spayed a few days earlier in her cage(puss got in through a tiny gap in an ajar window and my mum was only in the kitchen making lunch.

they can get cysts allsorts so hopefully its nothing to worry about..ill be keeping fingers crossed..
