HOW DO I STOP MY RABBIT TIPPING OVER THE LITTER TRAY OR MOVING IT AROUND AND POOPING BEHIND IT?!
By Fiona Murphy, The Bunny Coach
Today's tip is all about rabbit litter trays. One of the most common questions I get is from people who are frustrated because their bunnies are moving around their litter trays, tipping their litter trays or just generally kicking the litter everywhere! One of my customers a few weeks ago came to me with a question about her bunnies. So in her bunnies' pen, she had a platform that the bunnies were able to get up on and of her bunnies kept going up and pooping on there. So she put a litter tray on the top of the platform and the rabbit kept pushing it off. And then she was still pooping on top of the platform!
So what I recommended she do was to put a stone in it from the garden. A medium sized stone - just heavy enough that it stops the bunny pushing it around but not too heavy that they can injure themselves on it or that it takes up too much space in their litter tray because they don't like that either! So she put a stone into the litter tray and the rabbit wasn't able to push it off anymore. And she started pooping in the litter tray up on top of the platform! So that is a really good thing to do if your bunny flips their litter tray regularly, or if they shove it away and then poop where the litter tray used to be! It's a very easy fix. Hope that helps!
