Can you remove a cattle tag from a rabbits ear?

I just got in a bunny who has a cattle tag in her ear, how can it be removed? it’s horrible, I want it gone. It is completely healed so it’s not recent and does not seem to be causing pain, I just can’t stand to see it.

I’d take it to the vet and have it cut off. :)
They can remove it better than you could without causing too much discomfort.

That’s if it’s a lay-over tag, the kind that sticks out from the ear, and skin hasn’t grown over it. Then it’s surgery.

  2. No because there will be a big hole in there ear and it could get infected

  3. i had the SAME thing with one of my chinchillas I got. The vet cut the tag off — but the part that was through her ear is a perminant fixture to her.

    She is not in pain from it… it is just a little reminder of what others do to animals.
