Bones

I have seen another thread about a rabbit that someone described as 'bony' and it made me think about fidget. I have always been able to feel her spine and her hips and i don't know if this is usual.

She eats extremely well, always cleans her bowl of pellets, has her veggies and eats lots of hay.

The vet gave her a full health check when she had her jabs and said she was fine but it still concerns me slightly :?

you should be able to feel her spine and her ribs but so that you can feel there is a bit of fat over them. If you can't feel them and when she's stretch up she looks rotund rather than a little concave they she's too porky. If her spine a ribs are sharp and her back seems sunken then she's too skinny. Most people (myslef included) keep their buns a little on the tubby side really as they should be lean & if the vet says she is a good weight then she almost certainly is.

Phew, thanks
