Lop rabbits are incredibly cute, but it is important to know they come with some extra medical needs. Because of the way their ears hang, their ear canals are quite narrow, which traps earwax and limits airflow. This buildup can unfortunately lead to frequent ear infections or abscesses, so keep a close eye on your floppy-eared friends!
Make sure your rabbit-experienced vet does a deep-dive ear check with an otoscope at every visit. Since rabbits are so good at hiding when they feel unwell, we can help them out by keeping an eye on things at home. If you notice any extra head shaking, scratching, head tilt, or if their ear bases feel warm and puffy, a quick trip to the vet can make all the difference to protect their hearing.
