HI Guys

i need help

Mr Darcy my 6 month old lop ear rabbit seems to have grown a GIANT lump on his neck

it feels about the same size as a gob stopper and he is not that happy about me touching it

as he is a house bunny i have not had him neutered

i need to get him to the vet asap but after reading some websites i am freaking out

any ideas or advice?

thanks in advance
 
Welcome to the site :)

It's good you are going to get him to a vet.

The only advice really we can give is that it is vitally important to get him to a vet ASAP. If his behaviour changes (like he gets lethargic or anything), or he stops eating, drinking, pooing and weeing then that would be considered an emergency. Given it's on his neck, I would also be watching for any signs of breathing distress too and that too would be an emergency. If he does need to see a vet as an emergency then you will eithe rneed to explain that to the vets receptionist or call the out of hours vet.

I hope the vet can help.
