  I have two female Holland lops came to me at five weeks. They are now three months old. I had them let her trained now they seem like they’re not they’re pooping everywhere and sometimes pee. They have their own room plus half the house they have an under bed storage container for litter Which I put pine pellets and soft litter like clean fresh. I would like to get them spayed however I have three more months. I’ve tried containing them in a small area and I’ve expanded out. I’m becoming quite frustrated since my whole time is spent cleaning up. I see other posts that are similar, but I haven’t noticed anything that’s actually worked. Please help if you can anyone who remembers me my poor Loki passed away. These girls came quite early. I did not know until they arrived that they were only five weeks old.

  Hi Sarah, I remember Loki. I’m sorry to hear he passed. 🙁
  
  Yeah, so, these new babies are juuuuuust starting to reach bunny puberty. This means things are probably going to get worse before they get better. The pooping and peeing is very likely territorial. The best you can do is put stuff down that is easy to clean. Fleece, reusable pee pads, whelping mats, etc. Their litter habits probably won’t improve until after they are spayed and everything is settled.
  
  Also… are you positive they are both girls? I only ask because you got them when they were very young and, well, sometimes it’s hard to tell with the tiny bits.

  Hey, thanks for replying. Yes, Loki was he was different. Yes, I am sure they are both female. I took them to the vet two weeks ago and they were both confirmed female. I agree with the territorial they’re not dumping poops there hopping and dropping. lol The pee that’s new I put out another litter again since they just want to be near me and not fair to keep them in there room away from me. Their names are Pearl & Pebble. They are the only rabbits I know that do not use a hideout of any kind, except maybe under the dining room table. lol
