  Heya.
  
  I’ve had my bun for about 2 weeks now and when we adopted him, he was a gem. He was using his litter box about 90% of the time and never had an accident outside of his cage from the get go. Occasionally we’d find a few droppings in his cage near his box but that was about it – usually it was overnight.
  
  In the last 5 days he has gotten really unpredictable. He uses his box about 50% of the time and is all the sudden peeing and pooping all over his cage. Whenever I am home to clean it, I clean it with vinegar/water to remove the scent and put the droppings in his bin but it doesn’t seem to be doing much. He had 1 accident on the floor outside yesterday but beyond that he is still going in his cage … just not his litter box.
  
  I feel like it happens more so when we’re not home/not in the room with him. When he is roaming while we’re home, he will always go back and use his box. It seems to me like as soon as we put him into his cage at night and while we’re out at various periods during the day for work, etc that he goes wild and pees wherever he wants.
  
  He is between 1.5-2 years old, he has been neutered, weighs about 4.5lbs and hasn’t had any changes in his diet (hay, fresh greens and a few pellets).
  
  Just looking for some help/advice/any solutions or ideas what could be happening.
  
  Thanks!
