Excessive urination

What would cause excessive urination but not excessive drinking. i have lots of buns that wee for England for different reasons but they also drink really large amounts. Never had a bun that wees ridiculous amounts but doesn;t drink much :? His urine has been tested and is normal, not done bloods as his weight remained stable and didn't want to stress him at this point.

Any ideas?
 
Bumping this up.

I have a 5 year old lop doe who varies considerable with both input and output but never one without the other. Sometimes she will urinate a little more than her drinking would suggest but that is mostly when her greens are left with more water after washing.

Makes you wonder where it can come from.:shock:
 
diuretic foods such as dandlions? eating a lot of grass or fresh greens? kiney problems and also problems such as uti's and or ec too x
 
Its definitely not his diet. With kidney problems and EC they always seem to drink loads too. UTI has been ruled out from the urine sample :?

Could he be marking his territory?? :roll:

No as even not neutered he does everything in his litter tray and is very clean. But there is a small paddling pool of wee in it every morning.

With diabetes and kidney problems I am pretty sure he would also be drinking loads, but he drinks very little :?
