  Hello!
  
  About 2-3 weeks ago I noticed that my rabbit’s poop pellets were smaller than usual and she left some soft flat pieces of stool(not liquid, around an inch in diameter). Then she proceeded to build a nest(false pregnancy alert). Now her poop pellets are back to regular size but she has been leaving these soft flat pieces of stool this whole time. Not many, like two or three a week. Most of the stool seems normal. I wasn’t very alarmed because she’s as active and alert as always and doesn’t show any other signs of sickness. She’s 8 years old and has had this kind of stool before in her life but not for more than a week. Should I be worried? I’m 18 but I live with my parents and I need them for transport if I were to go to the vet with my bunny. They don’t seem worried and it would take quite a bit of convincing to go to the vet. Is there a need to go to the vet? Should I be worried?

  Can you take a picture? Could they be cecals that got squished?
  
  Given her age, the only other thing I can think of would be tooth issues. Have you noticed any changes in her eating habits? These changes can be very subtle and built over a long period of time, so sometimes people don’t notice.
