  He is about 3 years old, but he was unneutered, so they said he was to be neutered then picked up by me about 5 days later. This is day three of having him, and he seems to be warming to me quite nicely. I was told that he was litter box trained by his Foster parents, but he poops everywhere, and has started pooping in a corner of his cage, so I moved the litterbox there, but then started pooping in the other corner. Any help is appreciated!

  So it seems like he was just neutered. They often go though a period of a week or two of crazy hormones after being fixed so just wait patiently and then you can start relitter training him. You’ll want to keep him in a small space with his box and then as he uses it then you can slowly increase his space. Often times when a bunny is rehomed, there are new scents and they can often loose their litter habits and especially after getting fixed.
