Are the poos normal-looking (dry, and the right color)?

Both of my bunnies are on medication for e-cuniculi and they are beginning to suss when I am coming to collect them for their medecine. When I do this they both poop a lot! It could just be a little nerves. As long as your bunny is eating and drinking well andthe poop looks normal and isn't runny at all it could just be nerves. Do you know her history - why she ended up at the pound?

:yeahthat

If the poops are "normal", then there's probably nothing to worry about.



If our Binky gets loose, that's how we find her....

Same here,

Penny poops in one place, but Molly leaves trails much like the illustrationJimD posted /

Even though Molly was spayed.

Sounds healthy to me.

One night there was a huge poo poo in our rabbits cage and you would think a dog pooped in there. When I took it out, it was all little round normal size poop balls all stuck together.Is this normal?

Did it smell bad? Sometimes cecal pellets come out like that. Are you familar with cecal pellets?

I merged this second thread with the first, so people can know the entire situation. I hope thats ok

Is your bunny spayed? Sometimes that helps with litter box training. Is she using her litter box normally?

Hi everyone.

I took Smokey to the vet on March 10th (last Saturday) and she has been doing so much betterwith the poo poo all over her butt since we changed her diet like I wrote about previously on here. She did have some poo poo stuck to her butt so the vet shaved her fur on her butt.Boy did he take a lot of fur off of her and then he checked her butt and said she was fine and we got her there in time before she had no infection which is great news. He also trimmed her nails. My daughter was sad cuz she wasn't there for her rabbit. But she was fine. A bit scarred but she did well. Thanks for all of your help
