Hmm, maybe having the water bowel and pellet bowl in the box is confusing to her (i know sometimes it helps, but figure it’s worth experimenting)? 6.3 inches high is also a bit tall, but not too bad.
You might try putting some carefresh litter, with a nice fluffy hay layer on top right in the box (you can keep the hanging feeder as well). Usually…[Read more]

Oh OK, great to get that advice on the barrier pen. I would have taken that down otherwise. I suppose it’s better to be safe than sorry. Thanks 😊
She’s spending of her time flopping, sleeping, and loafing beside his pen but he’s not doing any of that near her. He’s doing it at the furthest point from her/me. I’m taking that more as a security…[Read more]

It’s larger, we had a smaller one and realized she didn’t like it.
She was successfully going it for two weeks. The size is 16.2 in*11.8 in*6.3 in. We have her water bowl and food bowl in their. We have a hanging hay feeder above it.

Hormones will do that! It can be very alarming and frustrating! Can you move her current litter box in to the play pen?
Carefresh litter can be really helpful for encouraging a bun to use the litter box, something about the texture and smell helps a lot.
Also how big is her litter box? Sometimes buns will revolt if it’s too small or too hard to…[Read more]

So, I just let her out into the pen. She ran out peed everywhere and then ran into her hutch and bunny flopped. UGH

Hello. Thank you for the quick reply.
We were thinking the same, about a second litter box. I ordered another from Amazon on Saturday, but it doesn’t arrive until tomorrow. We have a huge whelping mat under the cage and play pen. She is peeing so much in the pen and her urine is so potent since this started. I was trying to not release her in the…[Read more]

That’s good! He sounds very healthy. 🙂 And it’s just something to keep in mind (especially if you start noticing excessive white deposits in his urine).
Coriander is a really good one to add in. Other leaf lettuces are good too if those are easier to come by (just not iceberg). Endive/chicory is another great low-calcium staple veggie that…[Read more]

This all sounds like normal hormonal behavior, so my main advice is just to hang on until she gets spayed!
Maybe you could add a litter box in the play pen area?
How large is her cage? Is it possible to give her 24/7 access to the play pen? Most cages are too small, so her behavior could have gotten worse because she doesn’t have enough…[Read more]

Hello, I am a new member. We have a female bunny that was born 6/12/2021. We got her when she was 10 weeks old. She was potty trained for a few weeks. Last week she appeared to start puberty. Out of nowhere she got very aggressive with her cage. She started circling my husbands feet, nipping, and honking. Once this started she suddenly stopped…[Read more]

I haven’t noticed those signs that much, but I will definitely mention it to my vet! I’m slightly impressed that Bun Jovi still has a spicy side at his age hahha! Wolf actually used to constantly pee outside of his litter despite being litter trained. He’s been pretty good since moving back he, though. So either his renewed litter skills are a…[Read more]
