Hi everybunny,
My little bun was neutered 2 weeks and 4 days ago but still goes around leaving little poops (seemingly just falling out from his butt) and peeing in corners (recently before the neuter, he discovered he also could go in the center of the room too!!). He has a big, grated litter box with a hay feeder that he goes almost perfect in when he is caged, however whenever the cage is open it’s fair game and he just goes to the bathroom in any corner or where he feels like it. Whenever he pees on the carpet I dab as much as I can with towels/paper towels and then pour a bunch of white vinegar on it for the smell (it doesn’t act as a deterrent to him whatsoever.) I also put all poops into his box immediately.
It’s funny because whenever he goes to a corner, turns around and lifts up his tail, and starts to go to the bathroom and I start walking over, he HIGH TAILS it to cage like truly RUNS. So I think he knows he is doing something wrong – hopefully proof that it is hormonal and not just poor habits. When I first got him he was pretty good and never peed outside his litter box ever the first few months, another hopeful sign that once his hormones kicked in he got bad and are sole responsible for the issue.
I know it takes 4-6 weeks for their hormones to level out but a lot of people said they started noticing change at 2 weeks. Well he’s just as bad as always. Has anyone else experienced this post neuter with their buns? When did it get better?
Thanks friends!
