I heard we used to have a messy bunny pen thread, untouched BEFORE cleaning!
Unfortunetly I have cleaned everyone today except Plum Bun, she did get some fresh aspen shavings but I didn’t pick up her mess …
So lets see how messy your bunnies are!!!


Oh Bun…why do you poop all over and insist the hay must go everywhere? And where exactly does she think digging in that corner will get her to?
I think it is safe to say that Bun is digging to increase her territory, and in case she succeeds she will leave some droppings for others to know the place is hers even though she may have exited through a corner tunnel~
I hope this thread catches on, I love messy pen photos.
Since Mops left I have less mess. Stray littering has died off too because I yielded and gave my new quartet a third litter box again.
But this photo is one of my fond memories of Mops who was a major shredding machine. The thing is that he used to tear off equal-sized pieces.
Mops made a comfy nest for Lint
(Lint was in a bad mood because he was stuck in this small cementing condo with Deirdra against his will)
Oooo WOW!!!! That is a GREAT mess!!! Omg Lint’s face lol!!! I’m actually excited to show you guys tomorrow what a mess all the other buns make!
Oh wow! 0_o Now I don’t feel so bad. And I thought Mimzy could mess! 0_o
Ah me…I just finished cleaning my bunnies, so y’all will have to wait till tomorrow. ^_^
You know, I don’t really see the poop mess in pictures because I get distracted looking at the bunnies! : D Poop mess at home though is a different story.
bun wants to dig to china, did you know? she is secretly chinese.. lol.
the only MESSY part i have is Chacha’s litter box.. she pushes her hay all over, even though i try to confine it into one place in her litter box. sigh.
oh no oh no petzy. lint pictures = i wnat to steal him!
Love this thread! I will have to get a picture of Walters messy pen since he has decided the litterbox is too inferior to use. But it makes an excellent diggy box. I just cleaned his so will have to get one tomorrow sometime
I need to catch moose when he has been playing with his paper… hehe he makes such a mess!
Had to pull out the semi broken cam for this. The mess isn’t so bad, just Jerseys effort in last few hours. Normally they’d be more hay mess too but I haven’t re stocked the hay today yet.
The culprit. v
Who me? v
haa! That “who me” look is amazing. Such a great idea for a thread.
I’m sure I’ve posted this before, but I can’t really top it. I woke up to this one morning…
We have a couch cover now…
haha. Lizzie, don’t you have a Remy and toilet paper one too?
Oh geez…
lol
LOL OMG!!!
Yeeeeeeeeeeah….
They’re lucky I can barely ever *get* mad at them, let alone stay mad!
jersey, I love the chewable toys hanging from each bureau knob.
I assume she just jumped straight up there. So cute.
Oh yeah, they both do. They sleep up on there. Jersey always did as a lone bun too.
Lint I have the same green bowl for Cottons water
Wow what messy bun buns.
LizzyKnittyBunny- You lie. Remy is too sweet and adorable. He never would have made a huge bad-bunny mess like that! Shame on you for soiling his good name! ![]()
mine done get newspaper anymore for this exact reason… however!!! Since i cleaned today.. no pics, but you guys havent seen my new pens yet.. so im going to give them newspaper tonight and will take pics tomorrrow since i’m not working (:
OH you aren’t workign tomorrow what do you have to take a whole day off to clean your innocent bunny’s mess lol
Be glad to see your pics. I check in here to see if there are new ones
Warning…stuff (for lack of a more colorful word) happens next 10 miles…but remember…you asked for it.!
Here is Mimzy’s Mess. I get to deal with this first thing each morning…and if I’m especially lucky, twice a day as he needs another spiff up in the evenings… (admittedly the 2nd round isn’t this bad, but still…he gets a stink on) ![]()
Litter box tipping is almost a daily thing now. He must’ve been going too fast to take the curve….

These areas are where the litterbox WOULD be if he hadn’t crashed it:

Yup…that’s his hay, all ruined because he won’t put up with it being in a basket:

And underneath the hay:

Now this really, well, pisses me off. If he’d leave the box there it would’ve been caught, because…

He refuses to use this side of the litter!!! (that sound you hear is ME grinding MY teeth!)

How’d these get up here??

Hm? Who me? I dunno what yer talkin’ about….

Mimz and Bun should start dating. lol
I warned you guys what a disaster it was! lolz…and this was a SLOW day for him! ^_^
Luckily Pip and Fiver don’t make this much mess. But they have little bunny mattresses in their pens that take up a lot of flooring…Mimzy just has too much room to slide things around in for his own good. >.<
Still, I look forward to maybe getting them all bonded and in one pen for day and night (it’s going to have to be huge, obviously) so that I’ve only got one space to clean from now on. Plus they’ll get to keep each other company.
Going to take LOTS of rearranging in my house for that though…. *sigh* Working on it.
See now, it just doesn’t work if you post a pic of the cute culprit at the end. I was feeling all sympathetic and then….”awww Miiimzy!”
I laughed at the litter box in the 1st pic. Almost looks like he’s slid it down the ramp. Change my chamber pot woman.
I turned the AC on for the 1st time this season today and suddenly had dustbunnies floating before my eyes. I’m just as messy as the buns and need to do some cleaning.
You asked for them.. WARNING, TORNADO BUNNEH COMING THROUGH!!
Before I Cleaned:
Hershey didnt stay in her cage long enough to make much of a mess..
HOWEVER Twix’s cage…….
MOMMA!!!! Let Me Out!! I’m Scared!!! It’s tooo messy!
After i cleaned up..:
Hershey Decided she wanted to explore Twix’s clean cage… They get along fine in the same pen when im there.
Goodness! They are like mirror images of each other. I was looking for the mess in the Before pictures. They’d done a bit of rearranging but Mir, your girls are clean!
holy moly they are SO cute! Even while messy!
As for Remy the Adorable, Sweet, Flawless Wonder Bun making messes…. even the best of us have to pick our battles ; )

CLEAN!? ha! behind the cardboard box they dumped the litter box.. :s but it was on a blanket so i just dumped it back in ![]()
A-hem!
There’s pee spots too but you can’t really see. I haven’t cleaned today. The routine was a bit off due to my work so that contributed some. But it’s been like this daily of late. 98% Jersey – I’m so proud.
(she’s actually sitting in a litter box for the pic – how ironic!)
Wow, Jersey is a messy girl! Now I know what you talk about ![]()
Davey and Delilah are pretty clean, some stray poops…

Dexter and Dennis on the other hand…It is all Dexter! Poopies everywhere!!! (Excuse the litter boxes, they need changed.) This does not all happen in one night though, this is over about a week or so.

Wow, now I won’t feel so alone when my bunnies make a mess – and do they ever. I’ve just now been able to post a picture of Petie’s mess hall in this great thread because it’s only now that I have internet service agian AND have discovered how to get my pictures down to a manageable size, I hope.
Here’s a bird’s eye view of Petie’s pen (just a little birdie w/no talons!)

When did Petie grow so big?!
Wow. I am so lucky mine aren’t very messy Cotton leaves poops sometimes by the bedroom door. I pick them up right away. Ruby the hay sticks to her hair and it gets scattered on the floor.
Maybe thats why they dont’ seem so messy I pick it up when I notice it. Well the poo I do not the hay though
Hershey and Twix are beautiful
Haha, to me Petie’s still just a little runt, but then, I see him everyday.
“Yep, my fat little butt came out of that little ferret-hole…”

Alright I have to admit. cotton likes his house messy. Sometimes he digs the hay out of his litterbox . And he always has 1 wee outside of his litterbox. Just 1 now. The rest goes in his box.
I need to add to this thread tomorrow of the rest of the mess, I keep cleaning then remembering I needed to take a picture of the horrid mess!!!

thank you (:
lashkay: were did you get that grass house?
Check out lashkays post in the habitast and toys section! There was a post made about how awesome it is!![]()
https://binkybunny.com/FORUM/tab…fault.aspx
Mocha200, I think they’re wonderful…I got it on amazon The link is:
http://www.amazon.com/Peters-Nature…amp;sr=8-1 There are reviews talking about the amount of chewing different people’s buns do on it, I hope folks considering getting one, read the reviews. I know mine are going to last and last, despite some occasional nibbling, from my two buns, no more than they do on the mini-haven, but that’s just mine. They”re very sturdy, and for the 10.99 I got it for shipped free for orders over $25, they’re built to take a beating from the bunnies. I bought one for ea of my bunnies plus a fasta pasta microwave pasta cooker for $6.58, and got the free shipping. I’m hoping enough people will want to try it, including Binkybunny, so that Binkybunny will want to stock them in the Binkybunny store. The dried grass is a nice chewing alternatvie from all chewing on the cardboard of the maze and mini-havens, and for the price I should think BB store could get a good deal, so a good deal for everyone, including the bunnies!
I just bought one of those houses ![]()
Awesome Thread!!! I’ve been meaning to snap some pictures after I clean in there and I never remember. I tidy every day but the big clean is once a week and for some reason I never remember to take pictures. I also need a new memory card-mine is almost full (yeah I know you can delete them but I worry!) ![]()
So perfect thread for me!! Warning: Contains poopies!
As you can see naughty Noot’s side is dirty-he doesn’t use a potty so I gave up and those are puppy pee pads. Perfect because they suck up moisture and he doesn’t chew them up at all. The blanky has fur on it if your wondering-that is my experiement-Kahlua needed a haircut so I put some of her fur in Noots pen on the blanky to see if he’d like that.

And this is Rupert and Kahlua’s side

Rupert is in his window viewing platform even though it’s dark out-maybe he thinks he can see
I know my neighbors have a clear view of a bunny in the window ![]()


Kahlua’s new hair cut (Yeah I know-I should be a groomer lol at least she can see now!
)

Noot patootie

You tottally inspired me to redo Ringo’s “cage”… love the second shelf window seat you got! Ringo would love that!!!! He is always looking out the window in our living room — it goes all the way to floor. I always wonder what people outside think when they see a rabbit looking outside the window, lol.
My boyfriend and I have an ongoing battle with Peppy, to see who can outsmart the other – we try to fix her cage in a new destructo-bunny-proof way, and she manages to make a mess anyways ![]()
First, it was litter box moving/flipping or peeing over the edge – we got a bigger box that went up higher on the side, and put in a wood bar to secure it in place. Then it was food bowl flipping, which was solved by buying a bigger heavier (doggie) diner and securing the bowls with a removeable latch made out of strips of metal. Having been foiled again, Peppy turned her havoc-wreaking attention to her hay…wherever we put a bunch of hay, she would poop/pee! The solution so far has been to latch a medium-sized cardboard box to the side of the cage, small enough so that she can’t climb in and do her business inside.
This is the arrangement that has lasted the longest so far…*crosses fingers* We clean out the litter daily, and that’s as far as the mess goes
. However, I don’t doubt that my ever-scheming bun is working on more ways to give us headaches!
Her food bowl is empty and the hay is low, but I promise we feed her!
Its natural for bunnies to go potty where their hay is. It’s just what they do. I usually just put a handful of hay in their litterbox, and thats where they go ![]()

Oh of course! It’s just a little frustrating to be throwing out soiled handfuls of hay every night, but we do try to put some in her litter box to munch on when we remember ![]()
Poopwars
Hay just really goes all over the place!
Kahlua! *giggles* Oh poor poppet. She’s seems embarrassed. No offence K&K.
I noticed the 4 litterboxes along the divider. Experiencing poop wars are you? :p
Is Noot tilty? : ( Or is this just because of his vision now?
Loving that hair style, K&K!

No I just wanted them close to each other-so I put toilets along the ‘fence’ and then food stations
They do seem to want to ‘go’ along the territory line so it worked well
Noot has always had a slight tilt when he’s anxious it’s weird-but it’s not real….like…if he’s anxious (ie. I’ve picked him up) he tilts a little and otherwise it’s not there. It’s kind of behavioral. We ran through meds just in case and tested of course-but it’s only there when he’s anxious so it seems behavioral.
Kokaneeandkahlua: I love your window seat to! I hope you don’t mind but I copied your idea and made one too!
I do not mind at all-in fact-call me flattered!!!
Rupert loves it so I hope yours do too!! I put my birdbath (in summer) and birdseed out there so he has something to watch lol ![]()
@ grumpybun– thats DOES look like Spooky Mulder! Spooky has more white on his side– but that still looks like a funky version of Spooky ![]()
Ok so here is my buns mess.
sorry for all of the pics.![]()

oh, I love the series of pictures. It is a fine mess too! I just realize how much crib-like the window patio is! And how big! Does Mocha go up there now?
Yes, he is calmed down now and he loves to go up there (especially now that I put hay up there)!

^ nom nom nommmin!
I love the hay box! did you make it?
I love the hay box! did you make it?
Yeah I like it too! No I didn’t make it its just an empty tissue box. ![]()
Haha! ![]()
Here is the clean cage.![]()

I put a sheet down instead of the rug because Lulu peed on the rug last time so I would rather throw the sheet in the wash and wipe up the floor instead of washing carpet.![]()
Here is there window seat. ( you can see my bunny stuffed animals in my closet
)
.jpg)
your setup is one of the nicest! I love it!
Thanks. I love it too!
I love your set up too! It is really perfect! I am sure Mocha and Lulu love it too!![]()
*covers S&M&M’s eyes. They did not see this. They are not jealous. Really. *hears Smudge thump*
Siiigh I better get their setups a little nicer. Smudge is right in the middle of the living room right now rofl. Poor girl. She’s probably like to see out the window with Moosie and Monkey.
Poops, Fur, and Carpet!!! Time to vacuum! And…noms on the boxspring…

And I don’t know about you guys…but poopin up your bed is fun too!
And I don’t know about you guys…but poopin up your bed is fun too!
Lol!
Oooo, the bunny ledge is so nice. I wish I had a little nook by the window like that. I could go up there and read. I’m sure your buns love it.
P.S. I love Mocha, he looks like a little Ewok… Lulu’s precious too of coarse
I’m getting dutch bunnies too.
A bed full of poops! Those are some serious box spring noms!!!![]()
