My bunny, Zoe, never likes to be put back into her cage. And she's been touchy about her litter box for a few months now (i.e., if I touch the hay in it, she nudges the hay and/ or my hand, as if to say, Outta my private potty).
Today was a first, though: I ushered Zoe into her cage before runningan errand. She jumped into her cage litter box and turned to face me with a grumpy look and a defiant stance (whichshe normally does in this case). But when I tried returning dropped hay toher box, she actually lunged and grunted (more than once) at me.
Normally, she's ulra-sweet; but what appears to be a litter box territorial issue is certainly getting worse. Can anyone recommend what I could try to help curb this behavior?
Thank you,
Jenk
