So, my cuddly giant (okay, he’s not giant, just chubby) Humphrey is settling in very nicely– he’s even okay with being shuttled back and forth from school to home on the weekends I go home. I have an exciting cage of neat idea cubes around my desk so there will be no wire-eating, even though he’s actually not much of a chewer. Really, he’s a surprisingly well-behaved bunny for having been abandoned and probably having lived with some pretty nasty people before that. He doesn’t even struggle too much when I pick him up. He’s generally a squishy little angel.

However, he *refuses* to use a litterbox inside his cage even though he’s supposedly litter trained (and he’s pretty good about it outside the cage; he usually either goes into the cage to pee or if his cage isn’t around he goes in the litterbox that’s in the room. Of course, about 20 minutes ago he peed on my bed (my poor bed), which he hadn’t done before…) and I’m kind of at my wit’s end.

He has been neutered (granted, recently; not all his fur’s grown back yet), and though I started off with a corner pan I replaced it with a big one when he seemed to be showing some disdain for that because it was sort of small for his bum. The big one is big enough for him to lie down in, and he used it maybe the first half hour I got it and then went back to peeing wherever the hell he pleased. When I move it to the spot he’s selected to pee, he goes and pees *somewhere else.* I tried putting hay in there, I’ve cleaned the whole cage but the pee-filled litterbox a dozen times in hopes he’d understand *this is where pee goes,* but he just doesn’t seem to get it.

Do you think this is because he’s about 2 and was only recently neutered; I.E., he’s too set in his ways? Because I’m going crazy. >___<

Does anyone have any advice?
