I brought a rabbit today who is currently 6 weeks old and im unsure if it is drinking water as ive put a bottle onto its cage but not seen it actually drink from it.

I was wondering if it knows how to drink from the bottle.

Is there a way you can teach the rabbit to drink from a bottle ?

Welcome..

You could try a water bowl? And give bunny time and see which it prefers??

Hmm... not sure about the teaching bit... but if it's not drinking from a bottle, you can try putting down a little bowl of water instead, some bunnies prefer that.

I have to agree that most of mine prefer drinking out of a bowl.

I have both as Lola likes the bottle, and Lucy lies to glug from a bowl.
