Evening I'm looking for advise.
I have a large unneutered male we adopted a few months back. He hadn't been to the vets since the last owners first got him and he's about 18months:shock:
We have treated and cured the mites, wormed him and are still investigating a dodge eye.
Not had vacines yet because of the eye and I'm not feeling the need to neuter as he is such a lovely bun as he his(will do if we are going to get him a friend).
He is free range most days eating grass,basil, hawthorn, pear leaves&sticks and I forage other bits like dandylions and those other weedy things that rabbit like.
He is eating, drinking and pooing fine. He had a full hutch clean this morning and we've been out today (at the Harry Potter Tour) came home and let him out. He's very happy and comes for his fuss before hopping of to play with the cats again.
I picked him up for a bum check and discovered a large white spot on his penis:shock:
I had a bowl of cottonwool soaked in hibiscrub ready for bum check so after wrapping him in a blanket( so I didn't get bitten or kicked) I gave it a wipe - it was just a white head and the 'pus' came out while I was wiping it. I got the last bit out without too much fiddling and he didn't even heel kick at me when I put him down so I don't think it was painful for him. He turned straight around for a fuss and has come back to me several times. He is acting very normally in the garden right now.
After looking on here I'm not too concerned it was anything serious but I wondered if anyone knows what causes them? Is there anything obvious?
