  I think you should probably take him to the vet. White sludgy pee are symptoms of a urinary tract disorder.
  
  How old is your rabbit? Is the urine thick and cloudy or clear? Is he straining to pee?

  Rabbit pee can range in color; from white, yellow, and reddish orange. But if it’s thick and sludgy then that seems like there is a problem. Is he showing any signs of pain (such as tooth grinding, bulging eyes, or being hunched)? I also agree that he should be taken to the vet tomorrow, I read in your welcome thread that you had a vet appointment planned, did you already take him or do you still have one planned?
  
  LPT: Mr. Cuddles is 6 weeks old I believe

  He’s showing no signs of pain and i really can’t vouch for his age but i was told he was six weeks. His vet appointment is on Monday as that’s the only time the rabbit vet is in. I also have just introduced hay into his diet, the pet shop didn’t feed him any and he refuses to eat it!!! it’s so annoying!

  I think he’ll be okay to wait until Monday. It will take him time to get used to eating hay, it’s something completely new. Try hand feeding it to him.

  I agree with LPT hand feeding is always a good thing to try. My bun loves being hand fed. And since he is young you can always try alfalfa. I would just watch the bun’s poos though. Alfalfa was too much for my bun so we switched her to timothy at a young age.

  Since you already have the appointment, just be sure he has fresh, clear water and is drinking it. Hopefully he will not be worse by Monday, but if so, give the vet a call. I think he may get better by then, however.
