  my four year old dutch hotot hasn’t been using her litter box and has been peeing outside next to it instead. she started doing this a few weeks ago but i’m not sure why. is this because she needs a new litter box that smells less? or is this because of something more serious?

  It could be that she thinks the litter you use is unpleasant to sit in. Id start by looking over the litterbox-situation. If you get a second litterbox it might help. You move the litterbox to where she pees. If she thinks the litterbox is too small (rabbits prefer litterboxes on the bigger side) or too dirty, that could be cause for her to dislike it.
  
  Is she spayed? Does she pee small amounts in many places? Have you seen her strain when she tries to pee? How is her apoetite and activity level?
