Friends of rabbits, have you ever encountered a situation where your rabbit has soft stools? So what's the matter with the rabbit's soft pull? Next, I will explain to you the reason why the rabbit has soft stools, and what we need to do if it keeps pulling soft stools.

It is normal for rabbits to have loose stools occasionally, because it is inevitable that there will be times when the care is not in place. But if the rabbit has been pulling soft stools, it should be taken seriously. This is likely to be a problem with the rabbit's gastrointestinal tract. We need to find out the cause of the rabbit's loose stools, and then take corresponding measures to help the rabbit return to normal as soon as possible, otherwise it may cause a more serious situation.

First of all, the rabbit must stop eating when it becomes soft. Usually do not pay attention to eating inappropriate food, such as eating too much fresh vegetables and fruits, eating greasy meals, etc., or suddenly changing the rabbit food for the rabbit, the rabbit will always have soft stools. In this case, first fast for about a day to reduce the burden on the stomach and intestines, and the rabbit will lose a lot of water when it becomes soft. At this time, you can feed some clean water appropriately, and then change to suitable food to feed the rabbit.

Sometimes the rabbit's loose stools may be caused by gastrointestinal problems, or it may be caused by improper diet for a long time, or it may be caused by some mental factors, such as not adapting to the new environment, being frightened, etc. Rabbits are fed probiotics to help supplement the beneficial bacteria in the gut and reduce the trouble of flora disturbance.

If the weather changes suddenly, the rabbit will get cold after cooling down, which is also the reason why the rabbit has been pulling soft stools. If it is caused by the cold, you should take measures to keep the rabbit warm in time, and move the rabbit nest to a warm corner , so as not to catch cold again, add a blanket to the rabbit nest to keep the rabbit warm, and when the rabbit's body slowly warms up, the gastrointestinal condition will also ease.

It is important to note that soft stools in rabbits may also be the cause of parasites in rabbits, so beware of coccidiosis infection. Rabbit coccidiosis is a great threat to rabbits. Once found, it must be dewormed in time. If you are not sure, you should send the rabbit's fresh feces to the pet hospital for stool inspection. If you are sure, you can use the deworming in strict accordance with the instructions and dosage. Pest products help deworm rabbits.
