New Kit
Okay, so around 3 weeks ago I rescued (when I say rescued, I got her for free off someone as she was fighting with her sister) a 16 week old bunny. I am clueless to her breed unfortunately, I will post pictures to see what you think though!
Anyway, I took her to "pets at home" got her all the products she needed.
She's currently living indoors in a huge cage (1.5+ metres long, 3/4 foot wide?), she has chew toys, hay, bedding, water, food, anything.
She has been eating a whole cat-size bowl of food twice a day, and for some reason has been drinking a 600ml bottle of water twice a day, i'm constantly filling it up! When she drinks, she drinks for around 20 minutes at a time also - non-stop.
I wasn't too worried, but now I am beginning to wonder if this is normal? Her respiratory rate and heart rate is normal too. She gets let out for up to an hour for a run around, but sleeps a fair bit too.
Behaviour wise she's quite good, doesn't like being picked up but loves to be stroked. Although she is pushing her bedding around the cage, just looking like she's digging. Then'll she'll stop and it seems like she's licking the bedding.
Any idea's if this is normal or I sohlud be concerned?
EXTRA: I have weighed her, when I got her she was 3lb 70z, and is now 3lb 8oz, so not much different.
Thank you all! :wave:
