Anxiety?

Although I have been handling all my rabbits daily, I found that Eclipse and Luna has poor control over their bowels and bladder. They poop quite a lot while I handle them and on occasions, pees on me. LOL. I hope this do not turn into a habit. I do not want them to associate waste elimination with handling.

What about you? Have you experience the same with your rabbits? Would really appreciate it if you could share your side of story.

  1. Yes, I totally know what you’re talking about. Big Daddy is just fine when I handle him until I go to turn him over to check all feet/teeth/ect. He begins to start pooping and leave little ‘dribbles’ of urine too. Piper does the exact same thing, so I’m assuming it is anxiety…even though, they are handled daily. Wish I could get the point across one day that I will not hurt them, maybe it takes time.
