        Hi everyone, 

        I’m a relatively new bun mum, so hoping this is an easy solve, but all my searching has been fruitless. 

        My adopted 2 year old bun is her normal, active (ok, somewhat lazy, but that’s nothing new) self, she’s eating, drinking and pooping normally, but in the last week or so I’ve noticed some dried puddles of what look like a watery, poopy discharge on her blanket in her bed, as well as a couple odd smaller spots on the carpet around the house. She’s got a messy bottom because of it, so I’ve been cleaning her every night so I can keep track of if it’s getting better and it seems to go back and forth. 

        From what I know (I take her to the same vet as her previous owner – rabbit specialists) she has no previous health concerns.

        Any ideas??

          That is odd. Any different types of veggies she’s had or different brands?
          Or using different water for her?

          It definitely warrants a vet visit. I hope you can find out why this has started happening.

            No change to diet – she gets oaten hay (give her some fresh every morning) and some bok choy and broccoli, with the occasional teaspoon of pellets or fruit. 

            The only thing I can think of is that I’ve moved (about 5 months ago now though) and I think she’s getting extra treats of broccoli and beans when I’m not home, and perhaps a change in water from the new home? She’s on a hay and water only diet for now to see if there’s just an upset that can be rebalanced. 

            I’m definitely going to take her to the vet, but it will be mid next week before I can get her in. Poor little bun!
