Bam replied to the topic Bunny has excess urine? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
That is a very good sign!
Hopefully this is just something minor. I still think you should mention it when you take her in for her jab. It’d be grest if you could measure how much she drinks/24 hours, so you have actual numbers to show your vet. Measure up her water at night, then measure whats left in the morning and write it down. Measure again…[Read more]

I should have added in my original post that it’s male & female indoor and male & female outdoor and all four had some form of this.
All rabbits are up to date with their annual jabs for things like Mxyo etc.

She has been both eating and pooping normally. I do think she has been eating hay a little more frequently due to how many times she goes to the litter box to pee

Bam replied to the topic Bunny constantly overheating? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
It’s not normal that she overheats like this, but it could have to do with the bad situation she came from. Giving her cold things to lie on and keeping the room temp low are great measures. If you have access to a good rabbit vet Id recommend that you take her for a health exam, to see if she has some sort of infection going on. Howis her…[Read more]

All four bunnies have access to two standard litter trays lined with sawdust (which we’ve used for the past four years without issue) and a mixture of meadow and timothy hay.
Indoor are free roam so are quite clean (although it was one of our indoors that had it the worst). Outdoor are also free roam in the garden but have a chicken coop and run…[Read more]

Your rabbit’s pee is diluted because she drinks so much. That means it has very little smell. Rabbit pee typically doesnt stink though.
Polydipsia and polyuria just means excess drinking and peeing, it doesnt say anything about the cause.
I think you should mention this to your vet, it is important that a bun isnt unwell when it gets vaccinated.…[Read more]

SenbeiBunny started the topic Bunny constantly overheating? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
Hi all!
I brought home my year old french pop girl Senbei last night and am worried about her overheating.I bought her from a pet shop where conditions were terrible. The bunnies were kept in tiny cages (even the french lips and Flemish giants)where there was no padding for their feet whatsoever. The rabbits were drinking from ball water…[Read more]

Also, is rabbit pee supposed to smell? Recently her pee hasn’t been smelling like anything

She’s drinking a lot of water, still quite a bit more than she previously did (before I noticed excess peeing). Does excess drinking pose a problem especially when she’s peeing more often too?

Well I’m glad she is getting more comfortable but sad she is choosing to express that by peeing on my bed lol. (good thing I was smart enough to keep a waterproof mattress protector on my bed lol).

NetherlandLop replied to the topic Noisy Rabbits in Bedroom in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
Yeah I think I definitely need to bunny proof my room better and gradually increase the amount of time they free room in my bedroom. At the moment they are in the living area so they would go back there at night, and I like you idea of just having them free roaming during the day to start of with. I guess over time I will learn how to reduce any…[Read more]

You’ve only had her a month? Sounds to me that perhaps she is just becoming more comfortable and has decided to start “claiming” new territory. Bunnies are notorious for wanting to pee on soft surfaces, especially ones that smell strongly of their human.

LBJ10 replied to the topic Bunny has excess urine? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
The behavior you described sounds like belly pain. But that may or may not be related the the excessive peeing.

LBJ10 replied to the topic Noisy Rabbits in Bedroom in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 3 years, 9 months ago
Bunnies will be bunnies, but some can definitely get into more “trouble” than others. Have you thought about bunny-proofing your room and allowing free-roam during the day? Then they could be “put to bed” at night in a pen or condo so they won’t be running around while you’re sleeping.

Have you tried putting memory foam mats under the fleece to add more cushion? Also, some members have tried sore hock booties sold on etsy and they seemed to help.

Hmm… assuming it isn’t cause by an infection (yeast, syphilis, etc.) or sludge, then it could be environmental. What type of litter are you using? What are their setups like?

There isn’t much you can do except wait. As Bam said, their fur doesn’t grow continuously.

My bunny does this pretty much every time she loafs!! I was worried about it at first for the same reasons and she is totally fine.
