Hi guys,
Yesterday evening I brought home 2 baby bunnies. Both were just weaned from mom about a week or so ago. Both are doing well, eating and drinking and active, but I noticed on one of their bottoms that it looked like they may have had diarrhea. I'm guessing maybe from being nervous on the trip home and a new environment. The bunny now has "dried" poop on his bottom and I feel like I should clean it for him as he has yet to do it. I saw several threads on here that bathing is a bad idea.... so I was wondering what is the best way to clean his bottom? Is there a product I can buy at the pet store that I can spray on and then wipe it off? Or would it be okay to stick him in a little bit of water in the bath tub just so he soaks off his bottom? If you guys could give me some ideas that would be great!! Thank you!
