Drinks a ton of water!

[Kelly]

I have a female rabbit that drinks 3 times as much water as my male. And she pees and poops more too. Should I be concerned? I am taking her in to be spayed on Tuesday. Also, I am new to having rabbits. My male is box trained and my female is sort of. When we clean her box we find urine under the box so she either pees over the edge or beside it and it goes under the box.

I would recommend takeping her to the vet there are multiple causes of rabbits drinking excessively. (When you do bonded rabbits should go to vet together)

Thank you. We are going to the vet in the morning to get her spayed and I will talk about the water and pee issue.

Some bunnies drink way more than others. It is when they suddenly start to drink a lot more than usual that you have to worry.
