My rabbit's urine is suddenly reddish-brown. Is this serious?

[]

Answer

Reddish-brown urine in rabbits can sometimes be due to pigments from certain foods, typically harmless. However, it can also indicate more serious issues like blood in the urine (hematuria) from a urinary tract infection, bladder stones, or kidney disease. It's crucial to differentiate between these possibilities. Observe your rabbit for any other symptoms like pain during urination or lethargy. A veterinary check-up is advisable to rule out medical problems. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
