Answer
Dear Nirvana,

A baby rabbit is usually quite lean, and it's often easy to feel internal organs such as the liver and kidney.  This is probably the lump you are feeling, so don't be rough!

If you got your bunny from a pet store, then he's not part hare.  He just looks that way because babies often go through a stage when they have comparatively long ears as they grow.  This will change as he reaches maturity.

For all the best information on caring for your bunny, please go to:

I hope this helps.
