LITTER TRAINING
Litter training your pet rabbit isn’t that difficult. You’ll probably notice that your pet rabbit may leave his droppings on one corner and some piling on the other corner of the cage. This is natural for them especially if they haven’t yet introduced to litter training.
Once your pet is familiarized with the smell of his urine and droppings on the tray of his litter box, then you won’t have any problems with his litters. It means that your pet rabbit has finally learned his litter training program.
Litter training is introduced at the early age of the rabbit. Rabbits usually eat their food in night time and early morning thus losing his droppings around 9 am. The litter tray should be clean regularly but not that thoroughly that will remove the smell of urine and droppings.
Bunny could be litter train when he reaches 4 months. Spayed rabbits are easier to litter train than to any ordinary rabbits without treatments. Your bunny needs a certain area wherein he or she can deposit his urine and droppings. Once your pet has chosen a specific place, that’s the time you decide where to put down his litter box. Place hay on his litter box or any safe litter beddings on it, never use pine or cedar. Place the litter box with extra hay on the side so the rabbit could chew while he does his waste business. Once your rabbit learns his litter training program, you may now let him get out his cage and do some adventures in the house. Observe your rabbit closely when doing his litter training. If your rabbit spray his urine on the floor, firmly say no and let him smell his own urine on the litter box. Clean the litter box with warm soapy water or vinegar. Regularly clean the litter box, after they’re done with it and soon you will have a healthy and contented bunny.
