Hi All,
my Bunny is almost 3 months old and he’s been with us for just over a week now. I have two Qs.
I’m not sure that he’s drinking enough water? We fill up the water bowl for him and he drinks maybe half the bowl by the end of the day but eats hay, both whilst on his litter tray and when playing and running around. I refresh the water several times a day in case it’s because he’s picky about hay getting into it. i do also give him a handful of pellets throughout the day which he loves.
Secondly, i noticed in the first few days of bringing him home that he had this white crust just under his left eye. I’ve noticed now that just under the left eye, his fur seems a bit sticky. I’ve tried to clean this but he is very resistant. his eyes themselves seem okay. I’ve attached (not the greatest quality) photos that I managed to take.
He is otherwise okay. Is active in the early hours and then just crawls around and rests and naps throughout the day and then becomes active late evening time.
Should i be concerned re his water intake and eye crust?
Thank you!
