How do you litter train rabbits?

Question

I have 2 buns and i can't seem to litter train them. Anyone know any good techniques?

Answer 1

well firstly wait for them to wee and poo wherever, both of them and put some of what they have done it on in the litter tray, every so often pick them up and put them next to/in the litter tray and they eventually get the idea

Answer 2

For my rabbit, I paid attention to where he usually pottied in his cage and placed his litter tray in that corner.  Since you have two you may want to give them each an area to "claim".  Fill the litter tray with fresh hay to encourage spending time in it.  After having your bunnies out for play time place them in their potties, not just in their cage.  Award them with a treat (fresh parsley etc) One thing I learned is after I clean my rabbit's cage he will drop pellets in each corner to "reclaim" his territory.  Good luck hope I could help.

Answer 3

I had a big white rabbit that used the litter box.  To teach him I putt some of his dropping in the litter box in the corner...to kinda show him this is where to go...he took to it pretty fast.  It was neat.  Good luck.

Answer 4

I just got a rabbit a week ago and she is already litter trained!  I left her in her cage for 1 day with a litter box. She went in the litter box and then on the other side of the cage. I moved the litter box and she went in it and on the other side of the cage again. Now I let her go in and out of her cage all the time freely and have one litter box in her cage and one out of her cage. She always pees and poops in one of her litter boxes.  There is this special litter I use that is supose to be espeically for litter training. It is a peril type looking litter that advertises to be for litter training. It is kinda expensive so I use regular litter and then sprinkle these over it. It seems to attract her.  It is werid though b/c she never seems to pee in the place she poops. Like she needs two different toilets.   Rabbits are very particular and special animals. Remember this in the process.

Good luck!  Rabbits are so fun when you can let them roam around and not worry about them messing every where!
