Question
i have a female rabbit, she's about 3 years old, recently i've been seeing blood in her urine. what does this mean?
also because i think she's pregnant, around October 1st or 2nd, i caught her in the act with our neighbour's male rabbit. maybe she's pregnant? however, could pregnancy be the cause of her bloody urine?

Answer
Dear Irene,

Yes, she could be close to giving birth.  Please read the following for complete information about what to do:
