I know thiswasn't in the initial checklist, and I didn't notice it in any of theother posts, so I thought I'd add: gait/lameness. Know how yourrabbit moves, how they hop (I know my Mini Lop and Mini Rex look quitedifferent when they bounce around).

That way, a change in the way they ambulate, the way they hold theirbacks, or anything of that nature will be more likely to be picked upon. The symptoms are usually subtle, but especially where some of ushave older (or much larger) rabbits, keeping an eye out for problemslike arthritis is very important.
