I have a predominantly white rabbit. He is a healthy, neutered male of about 18 months old. He keeps getting urine stains on inner side of his hind legs. He's active, he's eating, I've been cleaning his tray from 1-2 days. I've applied barrier cream (pointlessly since it does seem to be only staining), and I feel as if it isn't getting better anymore. He's a lionhead mix of some sort so he is a fair bit of fluff. But I use hair-buster and I try and trim his fur when possible.
He was bonded with another male of the same age and in January they had a scuffle. Have been split since then. They were together for probably 15 months at least of their lives, and self-bonded themselves with no conflict the same week of their neuter (they were not particularly aggressive when I split them a few weeks before neuter)
First vet visit was clean bill of health. I'm going back and going to ask for testing for things. Urine did appear to be within normal range. But going to ask for urine test anyway. I
What kind of issue could be causing this? Is he just being lazy? Is the broken bond (making headway towards rebonding) just coincidence, or is there a likely health reason that might've caused his aggression to other rabbit. I did bring home a third (spayed female in JUly) but bonding has been inconsistent due to ongoing life issues. And until recently Gus and my third were getting on great, it was Claude and my third who were the issue in the trio bonding.
Another bunny owner from a discord server, who has bunny sat for me before, has offered to take them for a week or two in April, in order to bond them for me.
So is there any possible health issues I could be missing? Things I should push for at the next vet visit. or is it possible he's just a lazy aimer when it comes to pee?
