There are many possible reasons. Bring your rabbit to a special "rabbit-savvy" vet so you can determine and treat the cause (it could be kidney failure!). Some possible reasons include:
It could be many things but I would be safe and have the rabbit checked out at a vet. If you don't have one, grab the phone book and call around but make sure they see rabbits. Some vets will say they see them and then run in back and look up info in the books while you are in the room. Ask questions like "do you see rabbits? how many do you see on average?" Then try to ask them questions that you know the answer to such as "how much hay and pelleted food should a rabbit get everyday?" Answer: unlimited TIMOTHY hay and the pellets should be given according to weight. Good luck.
In the case of Rabbits, drinking a lot is simply used as a diversion, and a means of escaping stressful situations. Rabbits, like several other animals (giraffes, antelopes, alligators), are anxiety ridden creatures. Much
Reasons why rabbits drink alot is because they need lots of water and just think why do you need water
It may mean it's hungry or thirsty.
Rabbits eat and drink on and off all day long. Rabbits are grazers: this is normal behaviour for them.
If your rabbit is eating or drinking more than normal, something may be wrong. For example, more drinking than normal is one sign of kidney disease.
If your rabbit is eating or drinking more than normal -- or in any way has changed his or her behaviour -- it's a good idea to bring the rabbit to a vet who has experience with bunnies.

Yes, rabbits constantly need a fresh supply of water available at all times. Dehydrated bunnies can get sick without water.
a rabbit drinks about 1/2 a bottle a day or maybe a little less maybe if not 1/2 its 1/4.
its really thirsty and you haven't give him enough water
Your bunny may not be drinking water for a few different reasons. The bunny could be sick.
It truly , depends where you get the bunny from. I am a bunny breeder and, i just recently had a litter, and the mother left the kitten( a baby bunny) at after 2-3 weeks. But they may not be adopted until like 3-4 weeks old.
They should be drinking on their own. If you mean by a water bottle, they might not be used to it so give them a bowl. But if they wont drink at all take them to the vet immediately.
a very pissed off bunny lol
Well Your bunny is supposed to be very shy around others and tends to get scared of new faces and feels stressed out this is terrible because if a bunny gets too stressed it can die.
When a bunny runs across the room quickly it means they want sex with a female. This means you have to kill your rabit or if your a humanb being male you have to have sex with the bunny rabit.
Yes, but it has to do it rabbitly.
This is a sign your bunny is sick, and though this could be any number of things, you should definitely take your bunny to the vet immediately.
The Easter bunny doesn't have a favorite drink, but if you are a little kid and want to put out a drink for the Easter bunny, try something like water, milk, or even a fruit or sweet drink, like a orange soda, grape, something that is colorful like a fruit basket!
you wont swet that much since water hydrates you
give it a drink and maybe mist it with cool water; set it next to a fan
Your bunny needs to see the Vet. There can be many complications from heat stroke, and several different reasons a bunny won't eat. Bunnies have very high metabolism rates, so they should not be allowed to go without food and water for more than a few hours.
dude its just water it wont make you stronger
carots i like them to
maybe it wont but i think they drink water
Take it to the vet if it has been more than a few days without water.
your bunny probably finds it harder to drink out of the water bottle, maybe its to low or too high, if its adjusted to th rabbits height already and still wont drink from it, try filling a small bowl with water and see if that works, or get one of those tiny cat bowls that comes with the jug ontop that keeps filling the bowl each time its empties, less for work u too! i have a rabbit that does the same thing, and we found this worked, but if it doesnt try going to a vet and see if maybe your bunny is sick or something?
It wont do you any harm - apart fromt he risk of scalding if the water is too hot.
