Harrison had cystitis a couple of weeks ago, he started leaking urine everywhere so we went to the vet and he had an anti-inflammatory injection and a week of antibiotics. The leak cleared up immediately after the injection and first dose of antibiotics. He was absolutely fine in himself throughout, it didn't bother him at all.
The last couple of evenings he's done a couple of spots of urine, it was at the same time each evening and it was when he was being given a treat. I panicked at first, thinking it was cystitis again or something worse, but he's fine and hasn't had any other leakage. I've read on here that bunnies can pee when they're excited but that seemed to be pre-neutering. Can it happen post-neuter? I think he was done quite a while ago now so his hormones should have settled (Captain Helen can correct me if I'm wrong about that!) Am I safe to assume it's just excitement?

Is it definitely a leak and not territorial marking? He was neutered on 23rd January, so I guess it's unlikely to be hormonal. Maybe he just needs a longer course of antibiotics? It does seem odd that he only does it when he has a treat! Could it be a kind of bladder weakness?
