Product Information

Monitor rabbit's health – Keep a close eye on their condition and appetite. Take to the veterinarian if swelling, oozing, or behavior changes occur which may indicate infection. Environment – Unsanitary housing conditions,accumulation of feces in living space, or constantly wet fur from sitting in urine soaked areas can lead to poopy butt. Gently wipe away debris – Dampen a soft cloth, cotton pad, or wipe with warm water. Very lightly dab and wipe to loosen caked-on feces from the fur and skin. Do not scrub hard.

Groom fur – Use a fine tooth comb to gently detangle and fluff fur once the area is clean and dry. Be extra delicate around sore skin. Persistent underlying health issue – If the original cause of the poopy butt, such as diarrhea from intestinal disease, is not properly treated and resolved, then the condition will continue to return.Joey Helpish is well aware that kids using Alexa may be the main source of plays for his ukelele-tinged hit “Poopy Stupid Butt.” “We may have heard this 10,000 times before,” he told BuzzFeed News. Helpish and his partner, Kristen Muir, run a music school in Oregon that specializes in working with autistic kids and helps them through the creative process of coming up with song ideas. Disinfect habitat – Thoroughly clean the rabbit's living space using a pet-safe disinfectant to prevent recontamination. Apply antiseptic – If there are any broken areas of skin, dab on a rabbit-safe antiseptic cream using a cotton swab. This prevents infection.

Apply shampoo – Squirt a small amount of rabbit dry shampoo onto dampened cloth and lather up. Gently wipe soiled areas to cleanse fur and skin. Dehydration – The moisture lost from watery diarrhea combined with potential reduction in water intake due to discomfort may lead to dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, kidney damage, and death.

How to clean a rabbit's poopy bottom

Use a fine tooth comb to lightly detangle and fluff fur, lifting away debris caught in the coat. Be very gentle if skin is irritated. Fur type – Long and fluffy fur around the rear can conceal feces accumulation and make thorough cleaning difficult. Some breeds like Angoras are prone to recurring poopy butt. Regular trimming of fur may be necessary.

Prepare supplies – Have ready cotton balls, wipe or wash cloth, warm water, rabbit or small animal dry shampoo, scissors, comb, and rabbit-safe disinfectant. Never use soaps, shampoos, or disinfectants made for other animals as these can be toxic to rabbits.To prevent another messy, uncomfortable bout of poopy butt, rabbits need diligent daily spot cleaning around their bottoms: Loss of muscle control – neurological conditions, muscle weakness due to old age, or spinal injuries may make it difficult for a rabbit to control bowel movements or properly lift its bottom when urinating. Exercise: Allow rabbit daily active time and space to hop and play which supports intestinal mobility and bowel regularity.
