Dial A Vet · Accepted Answer

Rabbit droppings should typically be separate, firm pellets. 'String of pearls' stool can indicate a decrease in gut motility or a blockage, often due to ingested hair or a lack of sufficient fiber in the diet. This is a serious concern for rabbits as their digestive system is very sensitive. It can quickly lead to gastrointestinal stasis, which is life-threatening. Ensure your rabbit has constant access to hay and is drinking water. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance to assess the situation and recommend immediate steps, which may include a prompt vet visit.
