Potty Problems

[Mtowsley]

I went home for the Weekend and brought my bun Howard with me. The drive is less than two hours, and he does very well in the car. When I brought him back to my apartment, I decided to rearrange the bedroom and moved his potty to the other side of the room; along with moving every other piece of my furniture. I now recognize that was a mistake especially since he had just gotten back from a trip and was already somewhat stressed. I woke up to accidents all over my room and am debating whether I should move my entire room back for him or let him get used to it? I feel bad because he is always so good at using his box but he just seems upset with me

Time for a trip to the laundromat.

Could you just move his box back to its old place? Rabbits like to potty in a specisl place, so when you want to move a litterbox, you should do it very slowly and gradually, no more than a couple of inches/day. Otherwise the bun might just go potty in the old location and never mind the box.

I think he will get used to your new room set-up, but it could take a week or so. Id start with putting the litterbox back to near where it used to be, and then wait and see how he adapts to the rest of the room.
