  I’m worried after cleaning my rabbit’s litter box. I found some double and triple poop between her other golden poop. Her behavior seems normal now, and she still eats as usual, even producing golden poop. What should I do with her? She’s giving me mixed signals.

  Sometimes rabbits do pass a few stuck together poop. It’s ok if its only a few and the rest of the poop is fine. It’s great that you noticed it though!
  
  The most common cause for a slight gut slowdown is molting. If your rabbit is in a molt right now you should brush her, preferably daily or as needed, so she doesnt ingest too much hair when she is grooming herself. If she is normal-haired ie not a longhair (lionhead, angora etc) you can even lint roll her to get already loose hair off.

  Double poops here and there aren’t anything to worry about. You can try doing a bit more brushing, but they are inevitably going to ingest fur. Encourage hay consumption is also a good way to keep things moving, especially if your bunny is molting.
