Rabbits are meticulous groomers who shed every three months.
Hairballs are a secondary problem caused by the GI tract shutting down. Always check bunny droppings when cleaning the cage or litter box. Droppings are usually of uniform size and consistent in shape. Rabbits need to have timothy or other grass hay available to them 24 hours a day. Sometimes hay and grooming aren't enough.
