What a day!! And drinking wee (??)

Hello all,

Well I have had a busy day with Zion today. I let him have a run in the garden today which he appreciated immensely. Unfortunately he got into his detective mode for holes and managed to find one :shock: Thankfully I wad right behind him and had to drag him out backwards before he disappeared. Will be sorting that hole :oops: :?

Then I went out to the shops and my b/f went out to fix his trap door in his hutch. Left the lid to his run open and he jumps out! Hasn't done that before. Obviously got a taste of freedom from this afternoon. He chased next door's cat away as well so he is a zealous little boy growing with confidence everyday.

One thing I did notice is when he came into the kitchen and went to his usual place for going to the toilet, he done a wee and then turned around and drank it! :? Just wondering if this is normal. I was concerned whether he was drinking enough. He has a bottle in his hutch (ferplast sippy) and one in his run (normal one) and he has a bowl of water when he comes into the kitchen. I have seen him drink a few times but not a lot. He wees LOADS in one go. Anyone like to give me some advice on this as I have no idea.

If he's not drinking a lot, you do need to get him to drink a bit more in this weather. Add a little bit of unsweetened apple juice to his water. Is he weeing more than normal?
