If this is the first winter you've seen your rabbit doing this (drinking more water than before), then maybe it has nothing to do with the season. Rabbits sometimes drink too much water when they're sick (e.g. kidney or liver failure, or to relieve pain in the mouth). If your rabbit is drinking and/or urinating more than she used to, bring her to the special "rabbit-savvy" vet so that illness can be ruled out (or treated, if necessary).

Anytime your rabbit changes behaviour, and it's not because she's sick, you should look at anything in her environment that's changed:

  • Do you feed less fresh greens in the winter?
  • Do you really pump up the heating?
  • Have you switched to a pellet with higher salt content?
  • Is your rabbit shedding?

Any of these reasons could cause your rabbit to drink more water than before.

Is it okay for a rabbit to be lying down in her cage?

This depends on a few things. Such as.. Is her appetite and droppings normal? Is she drinking and does she have fresh water? Is her cage in a draught or strong sunlight? Is she breathing normally and not panting? These are a few basic things to check on for your rabbit. If she seems distressed and not eating or drinking normally you may need to see a veterinarian. Try offering her some dandelion leaves if you can find some or fresh carrot.
