Rabbits have a very simple digestive tract, similar to horses except I don’t think horses have cecotropes. Rabbits have to digest some stuff twice to get the full nutritional value out of it. It happens with a lot of small mammals like hamsters and guinea pigs too. I’m not sure if it has to do with how fast they run, but they are so cute they get a pass on the grossness.

My old bun once wafted a mouthful of it into my face and it was the stinkiest shit I’ve ever smelled lol. I still loved that fella

    makes sense. lol I didn't think they stank that bad, given how goat droppings smell from a distance, but I suppose it's a completely different thing when they're chewed up and in your face.

    Their normal poos don’t really smell, but the cecos do have a slight stink. It’s not strong, it was just that he wafted it directly into my nose while he was eating one.

    It was nasty, but I sure do miss that fella. Best first bun I could have ever asked for.
