Hi all,
A lady came in to our vet hospital with her bunny the other day. The bunny had a brown staining (not poop) around her back end. It was very dark staining; the bunny was supposed to be white but the area around her bum was all dark brown! The owner said she wondered if it might be over-active scent glands. I didn't think about rabbit scent glands before - do they have them around their bums? And if so, would they secrete a lot of brown fluid to cause the sort of staining I saw?
