Thanks Tilly!
I did ask someone why my bun was drinking more water when he was younger, and they said it was because I hadn’t introduced veggies to him yet. After introducing veggies, he stopped drinking all the amounts of water he used to drink. But since you said you gave him veggies, it’s a bit odd that he’s still drinking all of this water. I’m crossing my fingers that your bun doesn’t have any sort of kidney issue. Oh wait a second. You live in Australia! This isn’t an experienced answer, but it definitely is a logical answer. Maybe your rabbit is drinking all of this water because of the heat! Even though rabbits have veggies, when the weather is very hot, they will still drink a ton of water. I live in the US, and it’s super cold here right now. But Australia! That’s HOT! Is he an indoor or outdoor bun? Either way, Australia is very hot, so that’s the only thing I can think of. About the shedding fur, that doesn’t have anything to do with it. Toby is currently shedding, and he’s not drinking a lot of water. But again, I hope your bun is healthy, but if you want, you can take him to the vet anyway. It’s always good for a rabbit to see their vet, even if they’re not sick. Hope this helps
