Question

Bella's eye abscess My rabbit has a zit like abscess on the upper eyelid. It is not very large, but i was wondering what this might be. Thanks so much.

Answer
Dear Kayla,

It could be just what you say: a small abscess.

I would take her to the vet to have this treated, since it's in such a delicate spot. The vet may wish to express it (it could just be an infected hair follicle), and then apply topical disinfectant to help prevent recurrence. You can find a rabbit vet here:

Hope this helps.
