caecal pellets are soft

Hey people! guess whats this?!?! kinda cool huh, look like bacteria. But its actually rabbit's shit! woo! cool!!! plus the hair. Soft and Hard shit mix together. Do not be disgusted! The soft shit is actually good for the rabbit's health (btw. the soft shit is the one sparkling *blink blink*).

Read on...
Facts: Usually a rabbit will eat the pellets straight from their anus, and assuch, many people do not know of this aspectof a rabbit's diet. They are often referred to as "night pellets"or "night droppings", since the rabbits tend to eat them a fewhours after their evening meal.
(isn't it interesting and exciting?!?! more to go...!)

More facts: Caecal pellets are soft, smelly, clumpy feces, and are a rabbit'sonly supply of Vitamin B12. Due to the design of the rabbit'sdigestive system, they cannot extract some vitamins and minerals directly from their food. At the end of their digestive system isan area called the caecum where cellulose and other plant fibersare broken down and ferment. After they have been broken down andpassed, a rabbit's digestive system can finally extract the vitamins from them. Occasionally, the rabbit may leave these pellets lying about their cage; while smelly, this behavior is harmless. If theircaecal pellets are consistently wet and runny, this may indicate either too little fiber, or too much starch in their diet. This probably means that they need to be fed additional hay. (yeap, the hay is called timothy hay)
(cool huh!)

Im sucha noobieeee! After keeping rabbit for so long, I only know about this recently cause rabbit spent time with me in my room for about 2 days. Yes i bathe it first before letting it hop all around in my room *toink toink* Anyways it ate some of my dried flowers, smelt some 70% alcohol and drank some coke. Sucha naughty doe! doh doh doh doh! Doe means a female rabbit. I know this is general knowledge, but my knowledge is so limited! doh!

Hm... anyways she drank some coke cause i ordered Mac Delivery, so she hopped all around me. climb over my body while i was: 1. Viwawa-ing; 2. Eating with one hand; 3. Chatting with the hand other hand; 4. Trying to keep it away from me with ??? hands; 5. Trying to study (she ate my lectures). Anyway she got angry at me at a certain point cause she smelt the 70% alcohol and so sort of "growled" at me. SO CUTE! ke ai tu!...

Hmmm... Need more 70% alcohol from the laboratory. // ON A BACTERIA KILLING SPREE~ //

p.s. i feel so accomplished whenever i find cobwebs in my room and start on my massive pest killing. *kill kil kill! stab* no actually is just pour alcohol on it...! Muaha! violency not allowed under 18.
