Tilting head

Question
My bunny has started tilting it's head to the side.  Why would she do this?

Thanks,

Kerry

Answer
This is probably wry neck or head tilt.  It is either caused by an ear infection or a bacteria infection.  This is something that you need to get your bunny to the vet about immediately. They will be able to check out and find what is causing it and be able to treat it approrpiately.
