Hi guys, I’m sorry for the unsavory picture. My 1 yr old neutered Holland lop has recently started peeing and pooping on my bed again, so today I put down a plastic tarp. I got home and found this dark brown thick looking pee. (One pic with flash on and one off). There are also some little splatters near the main puddle of it. I’ve seen his urine dark orange before but never like this. He is eating 3rd cutting Timothy hay, orchard grass hay, a serving of Oxbow pellets, and greens/some treats. He is acting like his usual perky self. Is this normal?!

If he's acting normal, I wouldn't be too worried about it. Rabbit urine can be so many weird colors. I tend to be more concerned by cloudy urine, and what I'm seeing for your bun doesn't look out of tolerance to me. I lifted my bed, which totally stops bunnies from causing chaos on your bed. Willa likes to sleep on my face, which I do not enjoy.

Splattered urine can be a sign of a UTI, but if he seems fine otherwise, I'd guess the strange urine is just a fluke.
