I have had my rabbit for around 2 years now. I went to the Topsfield fair in MA and purchased a polish dwarf rabbit female around that time. My bunny, lives in my bedroom. I got her a nice size cage and blankets to prevent her feet from getting hurt. Everything was going nicely, but then she began producing a lot more urine and feces. I think she had been doing the same amount, but I began to notice it more often, due to the smell. I had a grate in the cage, so the spots that weren’t covered by blanket, the poop would fall below, this should have made the nightly cleanup process easy, but no.
My mother is very focused on maintaining top notch room cleanliness. She comes in with a vacuum and proceeds to vacuum the entire room, every night. The entire clean up procedure takes around 20 minutes at a minimum. Regardless, the smell is what has driven my parents (largely my mother) to put her foot down and demand we “rehome” the rabbit. However, she hasn’t yet followed through with her saddening plan. I have scoured the web looking for any sort of way to reduce the odor, but to no avail. My parents have also prohibited the spay/neuter surgery, due to the cost (which isn’t much) the hassle, and the possibility “something could go wrong”
But, I have faith.
I look to the community of rabbit experts to possibly offer up some “solution”. Maybe you know a way to reduce the odor? A way to help me convince my mother? (Doubt it) regardless, in my times of need, I turn to you, experts.
I’ll be monitoring this thread for responses regularly.
