Hello,
My rabbit is 2yrs old and she is a house rabbit. I have been really busy at work recently and haven't been giving her all the attention she deserves. Usually when I clean the hutch, she'll hop out and run around the house for a while before hopping back on in for the night. Today when I cleaned her hutch she wouldn't come out, and when I picked her up I noticed how incredibly light she was. She can be a bit difficult and she doesn't like to be handled (she is a Netherland Dwarf) but she didn't struggle. She has tufts of matted fur under her chin and on the inside of her back legs, I washed and groomed her and while she was wet I saw how thin she actually was. She is eating and drinking fine, can anyone help me find out what is wrong with her? I have an appointment at the vets on Monday and I'm scared of what they might tell me.
Thanks
