Question
Our bunny occasionally has diarrhea.  It does not seem to be associated with anything in particular.  He may have it for a day and not again for two weeks or three days in a row and then two days later.  Very sporadic.  Still eats and drinks and plays.  It's just aggrevating for us to not be able to help.  He eats timothy grass and rabbit pellets.  Thank you very much.

Answer

This is a very common problem that should be addressed, lest it become more serious.  This article will explain what's going on:
