pedialyte

[tiabia0]

What kind of pedialyte should I get to hydrate my rabbit?
Non-flavored, right?

And how much should I give her?

Is she dehydrated?

 

[tiabia0]

She seems to be a little dehydrated. She hasn't drank a whole lot.

 

[Phinnsmommy]

Ohh :?. Do you think there are any health problems related to this?

I've never used pedialyte on a bunny myself, but I would just get the non-flavored and mix a little bit with water.

I've also heard of mixing a little bit of gatorade in with her water, the electrolytes will perk her up.

She has a gi statis issue. Her only problem now is not drinking quite as much water as she should. I was once told non flavored but I was just making sure.

Aw, give her some cuddles from me :hearts:

And yep- i'm pretty sure unflavored is just fine, maybe someone with some experience in this will confirm it though .

This time around the store didn't have non flavored, just orange and grape. I got a pineapple and put together a mix of pineapple juice and water. I just want her to drink something and urinate more. She's pooping a lot but I haven't seen much urine.
