charlies bum is soaked in wee again. last time was January. he was treated for ec but also put on a low calcium diet. i thought that would be the end of it but its back :( im so upset and can't pinpoint what has happened. he has been on different hay but that was 3 weeks ago...:cry: can ec come back? although i wasnt sure he even definitely had it last time. mum also gave him a colliflower leaf about a week ago- could that have set him off?

Has he been checked for bladder sludge ? Rabbits prone to this can have episodes of incontinence/cystitis/UTIs

I would get the Vet to take a look at him again
 
last time he was given an ultra sound and checked for both stones and sludge but nothing could be found. it was completely clear.:? poo, i hate vet visits....(not that i dont love the bunnies but you know what i mean, its frustrating!)
 
He deems lesd wet this morning but in the past he gets worsr as the day goes on. I have a vet appointment bookef anyway. He is drinking alot so i think it is sludge imo but will see. Sometimes it looks like he is yrying to tippy toe so he doesn't feeel the horrible wetness between his legs :( he seems happy tho
 
Hello. Well been to vets and he is being treated for ec. My vet daid his tummy and bladder feel teally good. His bum furr has all been trimmed as it was really mucky and matted. He as scalding between his legs. I may have to rince his bum when it gets dirty. I am yreating both him and honey Especially since rarly last week i haf noticed hrr dribbling wee but ot stopped so it ould be they both habe ec. My poor boy.

For the scalding shall i leave it or put something on it? If so what?
