My rabbit is occassionally peeing red. I have a feeling this is because she is too spoiled with leafy greens, like way too spoiled. Obviously I have cut back and will take her too the vet if it continues. Has anyone else experienced this?
 
Different colored urine can be a completely normal occurrence in rabbits. If the orangish red pee is from plant pigments, it's fine and doesn't cause any harm. Though if you have a bun dribbling urine, urine soaked botttom, straining to pee, has streaks of red or pink in the urine, bright red urine, pink or foam in urine, or showing other signs of a urinary problem, then it could be a possible UTI and a vet visit is needed. When in doubt, consult your experienced rabbit vet.
