  Muggsy is my 1 year old neutered mini lop. For the last week to two weeks he has been urinating a lot more than normal. Usually, I would change his litter box every other day or even every two days. Now it seems like once a day is not enough. He has only peed out of his litter box maybe 2 times in his life but this week alone he has done it 3 times. I went to clean his pen today and picked him up and the whole bottom half of his body and feet were wet.
  I haven’t seen anything else abnormal besides he also has pooed a few times when I bring him out to play which is very abnormal of him. He also might be eating and going through hay faster than normal.
  Should I take him to the vet or is it normal for rabbits to change patterns? He is drinking plenty and has his same diet and personality.
  Any replies would help!

  I would probably make a vet appointment. That seems like pretty drastic changes. Bunnies don’t usually change their habits for no reason. IMO, with things like this it’s better to be safe than sorry since there is now way for you to tell without a vet if he has a URI or something.

  I would see a vet. That sounds like a big change from what is normal for him, so I would be concerned that there is some medical reason for the change.
