This is Lapinou, an 11 year old male dwarf rabbit who comes for consultation because he has diarrhea which alternates with normal droppings on the same day for 3 days. This is at least the third time that he has presented these kinds of symptoms in two months but it is the first time that his owners have shown it to me in consultation.

There are no repercussions on his general condition and his appetite is preserved. His diet is not suitable because he receives poor quality pellets in large quantities, biscuits, cake, corn, very few vegetables and poor quality hay.

Lapinou's general examination showed nothing abnormal. His abdomen was supple, not painful. Upon palpation, I felt some droppings. His body temperature was normal and his teeth showed no abnormalities.

As his diet is too rich in sugars and too low in good quality fiber, it leads to abnormal fermentation in the intestine and diarrhea which alternates with normal droppings. I decided to give him Digest Regul™ for 12 days. His digestive health improved after 2 days. Obviously, I changed his diet by eliminating pellets and biscuits, favoring good quality hay and feed and reintroducing green vegetables little by little.

Since these changes and his treatment with Digest Regul™, Lapinou is doing wonderfully well.
