I literally can not get over how good my male rabbit is, he has free roam of the entire house and he never leaves poop or spray anywhere, and only has one litter box in his favorite corner...now if only I could get him to stop thinking he owns my house...lol...just kidding He is the man of the house....he rubs his chin on everything ...I bring in groceries' he comes right in there and chins the bags...if he could bark at the door no one would know this isn't a lil dog...lmfao
I’ve apparently got a guard rabbit myself lol
same here🤣 boss of the house
It's called chinning. Leaving his sent. Have you had him fixed? Also does he have lots of good sized poops? That's their life line, healthy poops means good bacteria in the lower stomach.
Three days after my bunny moved in with me he chose to do his business in my beautiful couch from the 1940s 😅 I gently pushed him down, and he looked at me like I was totally stupid and jumped back up. I knew I had no chance, so the litter box has been there ever since. But it’s worth it ♥️
Getting a bunny soon!! I already contacted the rescue and they put her on a hold for me! After six glorious years of watching Lennon the Bunny, I'M ACTUALLY GETTING A BUNNY! I hope the hopsretail litterbox comes out soon 😭💕
One addition to your "don't clean every day" sage advice.... when you clean up an errant pee spot (that was done outside the litter box), soak up the bulk of it on a paper towel or natural fiber rag and drop that soaked rag in their litter box. It helps them get the idea. The follow-up cloth that also contains the soap you used for the final cleaning goes in the garbage or laundry as usual.
Don't forget to use white vinegar on that spot to remove the pee smell otherwise they may do it again.
@@princemallow6786 Yes! Good point! I use vinegar, too and forgot to mention that. Thank you!
Yessss I did this with a fleece blanket since that’s what they used at the pet store I put the fleece with his litter box and when he would go on the fleece, I would put half of it in the box so he knew to go there and it worked. He was fully potty trained in 2 days 😭
@@courtneyc9132 That's great! Give that little bunny a pet for me!🐇
Also it is very important to have a larger litter box. The ones in the pet store are to small. I bought larger litter boxes and that fixed the problem.
Yes cat (not kitten) litter boxes are better than rabbit ones
@@ratskullz_x I found that out too. The ones that are supposed to be for rabbits are OK for smaller breeds, but my bunny is a standard rex. She has to have a cat size one.
Where did you get the larger ones from??? I would love to know this!!!!💕💕💕💕
@@pastichegraham I got mine in the Cat section in the Pet Food isle at my local grocery store. It's basically really a cat litter tray, but it's the right size for my big girl. 🐇💕 Good luck 🍀😃
@@raven4090 thank you so much!!!!💕💘🐰💕💘🐰💕
Lennon is an adorable 🐰 bunny! Our bunny 🐰 likes to dig in the middle of his litter box, eating, and sometimes even sitting, and sleeping in his box! We just add more hay, when needed! I only do a weekly cleaning and spot cleaning when needed! Have a great Sunday, Lennon the Bunny 🐰 🐇 😀! Bunnies 🐰 RULE!
One thing some people don't get is that their poop is really not that dirty. It's basically compressed, dry balls of hay that have gone all the way through their GI tract and had everything nutritional sucked out of it. If it's not super gross to have bits of hay on the ground, it's also not super gross if their little dry poops are on the ground lol. I keep a hand vac in the general vicinity of where my bunnies are and use it to keep the area relatively clean, but it's never perfect. Even when I get it perfect, they then just ruin it lol so there's no point in trying. It does not smell. Only their urine smells like anything, and even that is not so bad if you are feeding them a good diet and using quality litter that absorbs it really well.
On the other hand, if you're having trouble with urine, that's a bit more problematic than the poop. I have tried a bunch of different products, from plain white vinegar to store bought pet sprays. The best product I've ever found for rabbit urine that will completely get it up, even out of white carpet and quilts/bedding is Biokleen carpet stain and odor remover. That was recommended as a good enzymatic cleaner on the Maker's clean channel, and it's the best I've used to date (I've tried a bunch). The bunnies tend not to go in that spot again after I use it, too. Mine don't really pee outside the litter box any more, but sometimes they can have a bit of urine on their paws still when they hop out, so it comes in handy then :P.
Their 💩 doesn’t stink either. I have more issue with my bun Zipper peeing on the couch than I do him pooping outside of his litter tote.
You mentioned if you have good quality litter than absorbs it well. Wondering what you use? Thanks so much!!
Oh my gosh. I try explaining this to people who don't own a rabbit or any other herbivorous animals, and they want to say that rabbit poop is still disgusting. It's not and they won't ever get that. Maybe I should just find friends with in the rabbit community that can understand rabbit life. I'm so tired of people saying that rabbit poop is disgusting even though I explain to them that it's literally forbidden Cocoa Puffs. It has no smell or anything and the smell they mistake rabbits for having is their pee, but my rabbits are litterboxed trained with their pee anyway, so they dont smell. Sorry about the rant I'm just a really passionate person when it comes to defending my rabbits.
@@Soundless_life Yup. It’s only the pee that stinks. Rabbits have the cleanest poo out of any domestic pet. Zipper, my rabbit, his poo smells like vegetation. It smells but doesn’t stink.
@@Soundless_life Yeah; my family is like that. My parents are at least starting to warm up to the bunnies, but my brother was like, "Nope. Waaaaaay too much poop," and has never tried to interact with them again =/. My other brother is an animal lover though, so although bunnies aren't necessarily his ideal pet, he can't really resist them lol.
I wish I still had my bunny but she passed away due to cancer 😢
I'm sorry for your loss! I cannot imagine losing my Nina Bo Bina like that.
OMG! I'm so so sorry! My bunz passed away this August 18th from cancer too!! She had a tumor on her lung/ chest area & it burst!! I took her to the animal ER & they put her to sleep, I'm beside myself still I cry All of the time I can't stop, I still think I hear & see her, I know your pain, my heart goes out to you 😭💔🙏🏼💕 I had her for 6 years
@@Lilpeepshawty1982 omg that happened but when the vet tryed to put her down she had a heart attack
@lizapiper190 that's so sad 😭 she was terrified, these vets can be so cold, I held her while they did it I was screaming hysterical that ppl in the waiting room were crying, I would've paid the money to save her, but they didn't even give me a chance to think everything happened so fast, now they want me to pay the bill$1,000 to put her to sleep I'm not paying it I feel like they killed her it was horrible it was one of the most traumatizing things I have ever been through in my life
@@cassiejovo3994 it's horrible, the worst pain ever, love ur bunz every second of every day 🐰💕
THANK YOU ONCE MORE LORELEI . ❤❤❤❤❤ I appreciate all the hard work you do for rabbits and their owners😊
Thank you so much for the video!! I actually laughed out loud when you were like "Rabbits will spend an hour in their litter box if needed. It's like a girl plucking her eyebrows and grooming herself and doing all of her rituals in stuff" lol. Love your videos!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you! I am a new bunny owner and your channel helps so much. You are making a difference in my life.
Wow. I did not realize I shouldn’t be cleaning CocoPuffs litter box daily…. I don’t disinfect it…but I do change the litter and hay every day. She really isn’t marking anywhere…just a stray pellet here and there. Maybe I’ll clean the litter box every other day….and I’ll increase the hay too. Thank you SO MUCH for all the helpful information you share with us Bun Parents ♥♥♥
So sorry to hear about the loss of your bunny😢
My bunnies use their litter box but they jump out of it and flick their remaining poops everywhere and it seems like they poop all over but in reality they like to throw it around😆
Amazing education as always ❤🐰
I would like to add: the type of litter can make a difference too. We were fostering a bunny and using the pellets the rescue used. Our bunny was doing everything to eat the hay without stepping in the litter box. He also was choosing to pee on soft bedding. I had a light bulb moment that maybe the pellets were not comfortable under his feet, so I switched to soft absorbent bedding and voila! He is now consistently peeing in the litter box. We also have officially adopted him 😊
Personally, I don’t like putting spayed/neutered into the word “fixed” because it makes me feel like something is wrong with your rabbit and you have to fix it, when it reality your bunny is fine it just should be spayed/neutered for it to live a better and healthier life
I agree, best call it what it is and not couch it in euphemism.
Still training our boys (they're 1 year old, rescued at 6 months), currently about a month since the last pee accident! I think they can still smell the scent of our previous boy. This stuff is worth persevering with, we found that they would toilet at certain times, so we put them in their x-pen at those times to change their habit, and now have let them back out again, seems to have paid off. Hope you're keeping well!
I don't even have a bunny found you through Sloan and I love your videos so far it's fun learning about animals
Aw❤❤❤
@@LennonTheBunny yeah I'm more of a reptile girl haha but Lennon is super cute 🥺🫶🏻
Another video, another SLAY ❤🎉
Unfortunately in Canada.... or at least in my area prices went from $300++ a few years ago by a vet that is considered an exotic animals vet... but now they are $650- $725 per rabbit... thankfully I found a vet that was wonderful enough to do it for $400 per rabbit... and that is for males only.... those top prices are even more for females... I became a go to for discarded bunnies. I ended up with a lot of buns and a few pregnant ones.. my 3 males I have now are fixed and wonderful. 💖thank you for your channel.
I paid 500 to get my bun fixed. It’s awful how much it is.
Oh my gosh this is so timely. Lewie has always been so great with the litter box until the last 4 months. He is neutered and I change is box every two days. He is just the sweetest boy. It almost seems like he isn’t staying in his box long enough like he used to. I have always followed the litter box recommendations so I’m at a loss.
Meee tooo
Might you be washing the litter box too much? What we do with ours is I spot clean the poo and wet litter daily, but leave the rest of it be, and gradually add instead of replace when the litter itself starts running out. This way our rabbit can still smell herself on the box, but we don't smell anything, and the box only needs full emptying out and washing every few weeks. You could also try saving a couple of your rabbit's poo nugs and putting them in the litter box right after the more thorough washings to remind him that this is still where the poo and pee goes
Maybe check for a UTI?
I agree with you about putting extra litter boxes in different rooms. I have bath mats in my bedroom and two other rooms for Pebbles and she uses those. I wash them often, but I don't use dryer sheets so that they don't smell like they aren't hers.
Thank you for all of your info! I'm a new bunny mom and I've learned so much from you!!!
*Thank god you made this video! ❤🎉🙏*
Thank you so so much for this video! I've tried to litter train my rabbits and my first rabbit was doing amazing and then we got another one so he could have company and she was not lettering as easily so this video helped a lot thank you so much!
I noticed both my bunnies had issues later in the evening more than any other time of the day. Both were litter trained. My first bunny didnt get neutered until later and had a tendancy to mark his territory as well as go after stuffed animals. The bunny we have now doesnt mark nor bother with stuffed animals. Getting your bun fixed as early as possible reduces the tendencies bunnys have when they mature. We supplied 2 litter boxes at first but noticed ours only uses one now. Good video for first timers!
I have the same issue. I think it’s learned behavior now. So, that I’ve discovered this what is the best response going forward?!? Ya know
@amandaharless2690 I also noticed they tend to get into trouble more later in the evening. I set up a play yard area, or bunny fence in one area in the house and my bun goes in there in the evening. I trained him to go by reward. He loves the Manna Pro pellets in the evening. He has his bed, litter pan and water dish in there. This limits his area and makes it easier on me. The rest of the time, he is 100% free roam. Not at night.
Yeah mr. Waffles goes up in his enclosure at night. It’s basically an X pen but half my daughters room. Otherwise he’s king of the castle all day long. He’s been biting everyone and grunting and running at us. He’s fixed so that’s not the problem. I refuse to rehome him because I love him. I hope we can start anew like some say you can do with your bun. Your comment helped me to see we aren’t alone here
When you said “do you know what that makes your rabbit wanna do. it’s makes your rabbit go, huh. This does not smell like me. Anymore. I must make it smell like me again” you sounded just like my grandma! That’s how she talks sometimes ❤😊
I clicked on this video so fast haha Thank you!!
Great info. I never minded the little poops. Miss my buns
Lennon is so cute
Thank you I am learning so many good things about rabbits
One of our buns has always refused to eat his hay out of his litter box but we've struck a deal with him and he's pretty cool about eating out of a feeder suspended above the box
Thank you for this great video! I am so glad you said a litter box does not have to be changed daily. I sometimes feel really guilty for cleaning it once in every few days and not more often.
By the way, I have found rabbits can also mark their territory when they are around the rabbitat of other rabbits they aren't bonded with.
I agree. This video is very useful for those who only have one rabbit. But in my case, I would be interested in knowing how to do when a second rabbit arrives at home, and when you want that your two bunnies both live in the same territory?
Also lots of rabbits mark on soft surfaces, like beds and couches. We noticed our little one doing this and we contacted our rescue and they said that the soft surface makes them relax a little too much lol. Our boy is usually very good with his litter box. The rescue said that this is very common and recommended we get a cheap comforter that we just put on our bed when our rabbit is in our bedroom.
It's so super cute rabbit! 😊
My bunny is bun-ingual. I talk to her in Spanish and in English. When i see bun bun about to "mark her territory," I immediately go "Rrrramóna!" And she scurries to the hooded potty box I have for her which is like a shelve furniture piece with two drawers in the front and one open drawer on the side where she hops inside. Lion heads are not only feisty and pretty but their intelligent. My bunny knows her name and it works every time. Hay is the key. Also after I see a pile of pellets and urine, but to a point the pad is sopping wet inside the box I clean it out and put a fresh pad with fresh Timothy. Nom, Nom!
Hey Lennon thanks so much for this video I'm going to get a bunny soon and I'm trying to learn as much about them as possible
Happy to help!
Yes! I needed this. Mr. Waffles is fixed but still poop poop poops everywhere. He’s also peeing on my mattress in two specific spots! Of course I know he loves marking but whew I’m always cleaning those poops! Also he loves his litter box but still…another edit: he has three litter boxes…
Hi, I just had this problem too when I trained my bunny to come up on my bed for cuddles. She ended up doing a wee on the far corner (which is always where they wee outside in pens, at the far corner). So, I got a waterproof mattress liner (2 actually) and I also have a smaller litter tray under my bed. Now she uses that occaisionally and never wees on the bed. Maybe that could work? It's just a small, Hessian, rectangle shaped basket, i line with plastic bag on bottom and load it up with hay. So if she wants to mark she can, it's in the same corner (but under the bed). Good luck!
@@blackpoppymagazine mine also marks certain spots on my bed, but his litter tray is literally right next to the bed, I see how he jumps up and wee on the bed and leave🤷♀🤦♀
I thank God for you giving us all of the great advice. As I've mentioned before, I plan on getting a bunny someday soon. Without all of the helpful information that you're providing to us, I would be absolutely lost, lol.
🤣🤣🤣 "I MUST MAKE IT SMELL LIKE ME"
Love this channel. Great advice. Just wanted to point out my bunny, inparticular, does NOT like to poop or pee on or near things she eats. She has a box full of hay where she naps/sleeps and eats. And she has a corner litter box with a grating where she poops and pees (with a pet diaper under for easy cleanup).
Commenting on all your posts! You have to see our new bunnies:)
My girls used to love to dig out their litter box and kick the powdered pellets out all over the floor!! So I made them a dig box with a different substantiate in it as well as bought some lighting grate from Home Depot to use in the litter box so they are separate from the litter and can’t dig it all out! It has also helped keep the poops in one spot too and we use them for fertilizer in our gardening as well so it makes it easy to pickup as well!!
I tried making a dog box of shredded paper for mine and they kept eating the paper 😅
@@colourfulsouls mine did too!! I use all kinds of things. Papers, aspen shavings, coco quar, sand and I’m getting them plastic ball pit balls for Christmas
Breeding is so unethical when there are so many being dumped, euthanized and given up to shelters and rescues that are drowning.
I mated my Bebe once to another bunny her own age. They were both virgins and it was something she wanted. She instantly became pregnant. When she had her babies, she was so happy. And then 2 years later she died. I’m glad I gave my baby that one beautiful experience in her short life.
@@GerhardtFoxYou are 100% projecting what YOU want onto your pet. Unless you are trolling
@@lazyhomebody1356 no I just know how to communicate with animals. For instance, my snake hates being handled and I respect that. In turn, she appreciates that and has learned to communicate that she’s hungry. She even comes out to greet me when Im home after being out of town.
@@GerhardtFox Not surprising, snakes can be affectionate
@@lazyhomebody1356 yes they can, in their own way. She has diffetent needs. She is more sensitive in many ways than the rabbits. My bunnies are always very stout of heart and brave. Nothing shakes them.
Over the years, I've owned two male rabbits (at separate times)...both un-neutered...fully litter boxed trained...they did not urinate outside litter box and only occasional small amount of poops on floor.
My bunny had a litter 5 weeks ago I'm in bunny cuteness overload lol they are so amazing
8:05 Your bunny will eat it's own size in hay everyday. Better give small portions multiple times a day (2-3), that way the hay stays fresh and your bunny will eat more hay. If you wanna waste your money and hay you follow Lorelei's tip.
Cheese was always very well litter trained, until I neutered him. He now started pooping more around his "enclosure" (it's not closed, it's an open play pen as his home) but now more often I started seeing a few poops outside of it, and around the house. Not many, just the ocasional lost one.
We use high sided litter boxes; it’s usually poops getting flicked out when they jump out of the box. One bunny has to have a plastic sink liner with holes in her box on top of the woods stove pellets so she doesn’t dig it up. And another bunny uses cardboard litter boxes because he’s naughty and chews plastic. It’s expensive but I don’t make a huge deal out of it. Soon switching him to stainless steel litterbox. We own 2 Shop vac one on the main level for 3 bunnies and the other shop vac in the basement with the other 3 bunnies. Rigid shop vacs from Home Depot with Hepa filters and use the generic bags for it. Litter boxes get changed every 3rd day and litter gets composted. Katrina (12), Gwen (11), Grace (11), Halligan (10), Babs (9) and Niko (6) 😊 our babies.
Appreciate the informative video!! Thank you on behalf of all bunny breeders😊
When Oli bun was young he insisted on his litter box being in the middle of the living room 😂 even now I use a few litter boxes around the house. Interesting about cleaning the box too often-I clean mine out twice a day! Why didn’t I think of this! Thank you! I’ve owned rabbits 20+ years and still learning!
I have a neutered male rabbit who poops and pees in his litter box. However, he also poops everywhere else. There isn’t particular spots he poops in. It’s just everywhere.
No Lorelei 😭 don’t film in front of that mirror. I keep thinking your bun is a ghost or something creepy is gonna show up
😂😂
Our girls were already spayed when we adopted them and we were able to litter train pretty easily. However a year later they decided to also start going literally right in front of our front door where it’s impossible to put a litter box. Had to just accept this so we just put a vinyl floor runner in the entryway and clean/wipe up the mess. It’s a bit inconvenient and gross but we can’t find any other way around it.
Great insight - thank you.
So awesome help!! Thanks
Thank You. This is very interesting.
I enjoyed the girl in the bathroom reference 😅Thanks for sharing this information is very helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Once again, well done and so helpful!!! You truly have a gift!!! 🫶🙏🐇
Awww I'm soooooooo Sorry for your bunny 😢😢😢 i have a good day
Thank you!
I have had to move Nina Bo Bina's litter boxes several times. But i think shes finally chosen her two most favourite places in the house because i havent had to move them at all in the last year. Lol
Thank you for this video :) Brigitte, my bunny is quite different from the others ... she doesn't poop in her litter box if there is hay in it.
This is why my rabbit lives in a xxxl dog kennel because he kept pooping and pissing everywhere and wasnt using the litter box so now hes in the largest cage i found and is living there and uses the litter box now with no problems but he is forced too
I remember for the longest time, my boy would mark on my bed despite having two litter boxes in his normal places that he picked to go. Then like six months ago I switched where I got my hay from. No issue I sourced from a different farm and that was it no more problems.
Also yes I'm aware my boy he has two litter boxes in my room. One is a digging box the other a litter box. So I alternate between cleaning them, clean one one day then the next clean the other. I did try to remove one completely but he went and did his business on the carpet so tried to remove the other and he did that there so I went fine keep both. I am well aware he is a spoiled wee man.
thnks for this info! ♥ur videos!
I have a friend who had a rabbit and she used to call her rabbit poop "smart pills". lol
I am also raising a 7-year old bunny named Tobin. Please take care and continue to create happy and memorable moments with your bunny. I will visit your channel occasionally. Thanks for sharing your valuable videos.😍🥰😇🐰
I adopted a 5 yrs old bunny and neutered him when he is 6 (due to some health issue it got drag). Overall he goes to his toilet but I realise that he will tend to pee or leak pee after eating his pellet and when he is at the back of the sofa (his hideout). I tried so many ways for 6 months and gave up. In the end, I add another low tray with plastic mesh on his water bowl and feeding area. I also add peepad with a mesh on top behind the sofa. Don’t worry, the mesh is on the floor so it does not hurt his paws. Previously he keep having sore hocks due his pee. Now he does not have at all! He is ec positive so maybe that or old habit or old age.
This is also a very good video
Thank you!!
Whenever i travel with my bunny i always take his litterbox with 1/2 days of use, cause he always recognize when to go in the new place right away 😊👌
We need a makeover from you 🥺 ❤😢
I have a female rabbit (9 months) and her twin babies, male and female (4 months). We just neutered the boy. They are marking all over the place and still using the litterbox.
We have a mom and 4 babies. They mark everrrryyywheeerrreee
I've got two boys both not neutered and living together one 7months got no idea about litter training used to but forgot how and one that just over 4 now got it from the min I had him but both completely fell in love with each others
hi i have a rabbit named becca and i love watching your videos and i think lennon is so cute.
I do that when I clean out the litter box I leave a little bit in there and it’s not the actual urine but it’s the surrounding area and you don’t have to keep very much at all!
I really needed this video, because my first bunny is perfect, but I adopted him a little brother three days ago. They love each other, but the new one is pooping everywhere 🙈
Thanks so much for this video! My bun has struggled with peeing on the couch and is about 5 months post-neuter. I'm definitely going to try and clean the box less (I do it every day or two) but it does get pretty dirty. Any suggestions for best stuff in the litter box to make it last longer in the box (do you use pellets vs paper vs pee pads etc) and/or tips to keep them from peeing and marking on the couch? Appreciate any insight you (or others here) have. Love your videos!!!
They do it right outside the box and in the box, I have one box per bunn too with hay. It's not an accident either.
Great information 🎉
That mirror almost looks Venetian
❤ your video, teaches me about how to manage my own bunnies❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think it would be good to mention how some bunnies poop in their sleep as well, so if they’re laying down somewhere outside their litter box sometimes they’ll have poops where they were sleeping!
Adopt adopt adopt a bunny that's already trained! :)
I remembered when people told me bunnies can't be potty trained and then tells me "because i always keep mine in a cage" afterwards is just stupid to hear. Because HOW ARE YOU GONNA TRAIN A BUNNY IF YOU JUST PUT THEM IN A CAGE!? LIKE IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE
love you from india.
I'm bun parent.
❤
i taught so many things how to guide and what to do and don't
Well, I hadn't thought of moving my rabbit's litterbox around her x-pen, but I guess I'm going to try that because that is the only thing left. 🙄😂 It's not that many poops, but it's still obnoxious. 😂 For reference, my rabbit is a 1-year-old Holland Lop named Alora. Thanks for the video!
Sometime would you consider making a video about good ways to set up a rabbits x-pen with cheaper materials? I've got a litterbox, drink/pellet station, a big box and a bed in Alora's 4'x4' x-pen, but I would love your take on some cute set up ideas, DIYs, etc! I'm a teen and can't free roam my rabbit, and also can't spend a ton on expensive huts and stuff, but I still want to make her cage cute, you know? Also, I can't make her pen bigger as there is not any more space in the room. It's to full of pets. 😂 ❤ from Missouri!
Out male rabbit is so kind and mild and we decided to not neuter him eventhough we vaccum everyday. He does go to the literbox but still does it other placed and when he runs. It´s a problem when we like to hug and cuddle him in bed and he does it there so we have to live with changing sheets a lot but he rarely pees other places. He has 3 different liter boxes in our apartment. Our last male bunny was neutered because he was more agressive and he lost so much energy after which is why I didn´t want our current male do be neutered. But they are very different.
I swear you saw my comment on tik tok thanks for making this!!! My bun is fixed but I feel like its still territorial
Could you possibly do a video on how to stop carpet chewing/digging? It's been the biggest issue with bu bun bun. Thanks!
It's usually cause they're bored. Give them more things that are acceptable to chew like cardboard boxes, willow chews, untreated pine wood hideys, etc. If the carpet is a lower pile they will be less interested in it. Some things you just need to remove or cover up if you want them to stop.
That's why it sucks because I have all sorts of toys, boxes etc, but she is only interested in the carpet. She is getting spayed in January so I really hope that stops it.
@@amcc1983did it stop it? mine keeps chewing my blankets, baseboards, even a chunk out of my leather bed
@@odalis6138 nope😭
@@odalis6138 It definitely did help a little though
Help! My two almost 6 year old spayed and neutered sibling Holland Lops, Timothy and Tulip, are using their entire room for a litter box and I don’t know what to do about it.
They were pretty well trained and great about using their boxes except for an occasional slip, but since we moved to a new house 2 1/2 months ago, they’ve both gone completely haywire and are leaving a mess everywhere.
They used to have the run of the house at our other home because it was just one story but we have uncarpeted stairs here with an open stair railing and I’m so afraid they’ll fall down the stairs and injure their spines, so they are mostly confined to their 10x12 foot room here, where they have an open floor level hutch, two litter boxes, tons of toys (which I alternate) several hidey houses, and a couple of cozy beds as well as blankets and little pillows. Their room is right next to 2 guest rooms and we’ve had guests some weekends, so I do vacuume and clean daily to keep the odor down, but I’m at my wits end about how to help them stop the behavior.
Thanks for all you do for all the bunnies out there and their families. ❤️
My Rabbit is potty-trained but he keeps peeing next to his litterbox only when I'm not present 😁
@Lennon The Bunny, is there any chance you can make the side long walls of the bunny hop box transparent so you can see bunnies inside? You can also add small holes in this transparent part to have more ventilation inside. Perhaps percyglass or some suitable transparent material?
Sigh. My rabbits are adults, spayed and neutered, have an ultra-accessible litter box with tons of hay, and they will use it primarily but they will also poop and pee in any corner of my living room including RIGHT NEXT to the litter box. I rescued them from a living outdoor situation, so I’m wondering if that is why they continue to do this.
I definitely think it's because of their history.. maybe if it takes time to adapt ❤️
i just rescued my bunny a few months ago, hes 9 years old and i cant get him fixed. He was not properly litter trained either. he does use it sometimes but most of the time its on the floor.
Can you do a video about E. Coniculi? I feel like it isn’t well-known to a Lot of rabbit owners, but it is super common!! Luckily my rabbit has adapted to having it and having a head tilt, but it was incredibly scary for both of us and it took a long time for him to recover (still with a tilted head though)
Also makes a difference if you have more than one bun, and are working on bonding. The pooping that can happen during bonding is absolutely manic!! 🤣😭 Elder buns also sadly lose their litterbox habits.
I have a large litterbox, lots of hay, she is spayed, she has been litterbox trained, she is an adult, she poops in the box, but also poops next to it. Thoughts?
