Hi All, could anyone help me with this welfare/diet query please? I've noticed our bunny girl (mini-rex) has developed some rather unsightly flabby bits just at the top of her front legs. They puff out & look similar to her dewlap - i.e. little bags of fat! Is this normal?
Bit of background info: I adopted her 9 months ago & she was quite small & skinny with a bad case of moult, in fact she looked a right state! Over the last 9 months she has thrived, her fur is thick & velvety and she is now a good size, well-rounded. She did develop a dewlap over winter but I didnt believe her to be over-weight. I'm just worried her newly-developed flabby bits are a sign that we may be over-feeding her? She is acting perfectly normally though, her usual alert & mischievous self.
Thanks for your advice xx
