[shlbysmom]

ok so i took her to the vet last friday and she had eye troubles so they gave her mouth antibotics and eye drops im supposed to give those for 10 days well i went to get her out this morning to give them to her and she growled at me and when i petted her and calmed her down and went to pick her up she made a noise i have never herd before and she had pee on her butt  but also her litter box was very full and i changed it and now she is in it so idk if that was the problem caue i pushed on her sides and moved her legs to make sure she wasnt hurting and when i took out her litter box to change it she peed n that spot so maybe that was it but im REALLY worried im gonna call the vet also but i just wanted some feed back from u guys to c what  u thought it was

Well many times rabbits will growl at you if you are in their space – they are very territorial. It is a good possibility if she likes to sit in her litter box that she is wet from that so I would clean it often and monitor her for a few days.

How is her appetite?

What sort of noise? If it’s a growl, like Sarita said, they will do that to be territorial (growl can sound like a growl or grunt)-but a scream (it’s open mouthed and sort of squawky noise) it no good. I’d defintiely call the vet and monitor-pooping, eating, grooming etc.

Keep us posted!

i called the vet this morning after she did it and she said that if she didnt have blood n her urine that she sould b fine but to keep a watch on it and that since her litter box was full she could have made that noise cause she was tryn to hold n her pee and i made her push it out but she hasnt been eating as mcuh but she is still pooping alot and everything i wander if the meds r y she isnt eating as myc h she is eating but not as much the med she is on the vet said is for bladder infections to so that could b y she is peeing more and it wasnt a growl she done that first and she dose that to me when im n her space so i know what that is but the other one was idk like a sqwak but she didnt look n pain but liek i said the vet said she was probablu holding it and when i picked her up i made her push it out but  she said if anything changes n the next 2 -3 days let her know thanks so much for your feed back i was so upset this morning i didnt know what to do !

I think it would help her feel better faster if you change her litter much more frequently than usual. That way the infection will clear up without anything new to inflame it. She also will be more comfortable peeing more frequently. Definitely spot clean it daily.

Antibiotics make me grumpy too.

maybe it’s making her have a tummyache?

Did you give her a full bath or just wash the soiled area? Do ensure she is thoroughly dry. Use a hairdryer on cool setting but try not to stress her out too much – especially if she’s not well.  You can give dry baths by rubbing pure cornstarch onto the soiled area then brushing it out.
