On an evironmental forum I'm on, somebody has posted their nethie has a constantly dirty bum. I said my first guess would be a dental problem, but to also look at her weight, if she is arthritic and her diet- too much veg.
They replied, she isn't overweight or arthritic and her teeth are fine, so it must her diet. Do people not realise rabbits have back teeth, why are folk so against going to the vet.
Anyway, I've advised if her change in diet doesn't work, to get her teeth checked.
This happens to me all the time, folk ask for advice, and if you mention going to the vet, they immediately form an excuse to avoid it- it drives me nuts.
