Ok, I have another question for you guys. I was starting to panic, thinking he wasn't urinating and that the surgery was botched... But it turned out, he's just not urinating in his litter box. He has the kind of box with the little grate over it to keep it sanitary and he loves to sit in it...

Coconut had his surgery today, everything went well and he already has a hearty appetite. They told me he was "perfect" and "a delight". I have him resting in a recovery pen I set up in a quiet part of the house. Thank you all for your amazing and compassionate advice!!

Thank you for the detailed reply! He is freely hopping on and off the couch, not me picking him up. It's definitely not a litter box issue because it ONLY happens when he digs, he is otherwise very good about only peeing in his litter boxes (one in his cage and one in the corner of the living...

No, he's not neutered. I was worried it might be something like that. I was wondering if maybe they tend to pee when they dig their burrows so that other rabbits know it's their's, but I couldn't find anything online saying that was the case.

I just adopted a rabbit a few weeks ago, came from a friend who's child turned out to be allergic to him. He is a one year old Holland Lop and is litter trained. But he has started displaying digging behavior on my couch and whenever he does it, first he poops and then he urinates A LOT. I...
