Does this look like urine scale?


My bunny Lola is fiercely territorial. I let her outside in my yard along with the cat often, but in the summer she occasionally comes across a mouse, bird or squirrel and she’ll stomp and be angry and territorial for a few days.

The last few days she has been skittish outside (which is pretty common, she goes through phases). She has also been peeing and pooping in random spots around the house and yard. She has done this in the past but she also stopped eating yesterday for a brief period of time (I quickly got her onto willow branches and turned it around before it became a problem). She also flopped outside and in her hut which is not super common behaviour for her.

Now, I’m monitoring her bathroom habits and nothing seems too out of the ordinary but the marking around the house has me a bit concerned. I’m worried she might have a UTI so I’m looking for signs. I’ve made an appointment with her vet but he can’t see her until Monday. So in the meantime, does this look like urine scald to you? FYI she has always had gold paws, I’m just worried they look reddish?

    Urine scald would mean the fur is fully wet all the time, and it would actually fall out. The skin underneath would be an angry red.

    Your rabbit’s feet look fine.
