What this sheet is for

Catch a problem early by writing the weight down weekly, because rabbits hide illness until it is advanced.

Who it is for

Rabbit and guinea pig owners, rescues, breeders and anyone keeping small stock.

How to use it

  1. Weigh weekly, on the same scales, and write it down even when nothing has changed.
  2. Record eating, drinking and droppings — the three earliest signals there are.
  3. Note nail and tooth checks; both are easy to leave too long.
  4. Take the sheet to the vet. A weight trend is worth more than a description.

What is on the sheet

The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.

Questions

What should my rabbit weigh?

No target weight is printed, because breeds range from under a kilogram to over seven. What matters is the trend in your own animal: a steady weight is reassuring and a falling one is a reason to ring the vet, whatever the absolute number.

Pet Feeding and Weight Chart

Track weight against what the animal is actually being fed, so a change in one can be read against the other. A single weighing tells you very little; a column of them taken the same way each time is something a vet can use.

Pet Medication and Treatment Log

Record every dose as it is actually given, so that two people in the same house cannot both give the tablet or both assume the other did. It also gives your vet something factual to read at the follow-up.
