Why does my bunny pee when I put it back into it's cage?

Question

This is the 2nd time it's done this so I know it's not random. The last 2 times I've gone to put it in it's cage it let's out a big rush of urine (not spraying.) Lucky it has not aimed for me! LOL. Any idea's why it's doing this? Its a female..don't know if that matters.

Answer 1

Well if she was litter-box trained then she was probably was just holding it in until she could go back to her pen. Our rabbit did that the other day. She was in her nest side of her hutch then she ran over to the corner of the normal side peed then ran back to her original spot.

Answer 2

Well the bunny may be scared or stressed.  If it shows any aggression or weird behavior towards you when you have it out of the cage, it could be signs of being scared, stressed, or could be the sign of a disease.  If this behavior continues, i'd suggest taking it to an animal clinic.

Answer 3

maybe it was holding in pee while u were holding it. very polite rabbit you have there.
