I HATE when my bunnies get stressed and show it how they eat and how they defecate.
Sometimes when it's bad enough I just want to get out of bunnies.
AND THEN.. when I lose one makes that feeling even worse.
BUT tonight... I have two bunnies eating their pellets AND don't have poopy butt.
One eating hay again who went completely off feed.
I still have two that are ONLY eating hay...but we'll see how they go - and one of those frequently does that and seems non-stressy just a finicky rabbit who is just a very odd junior. The other was with another junior who developed poopy butt and I isolated her just to keep a close watch on her. I suspect she's missing her roommate. They are both eating hay and drinking water just avoiding the pellets. As long as they are eating and drinking something I feel a bit encouraged.
So feeling a bit better about rabbits again....but not completely happy yet. Time will tell how they all do...
