My girlfriend and I have two rabbits, dumbo and latte for approx. 7-8 months now. They are both females minilops, and are quite healthy. Latte has been spayed and as for dumbo, due to a recent surgery we decided to put it off till this coming march. Well recently I had my winter break(we're both students) so we left our rabbits with our aunt who took wonderful care of them for us. But when we brought them back to our apartment (2 months later) we have discovered that they have become extremely naughty. I understand this may be because they haven't been let out of their cage for 2 months and may be a little restless but for the past 4 days they have been pooing in mass quantities all over the house as well as peeing all over the carpet, in their pipe and everything they basically can reach. Bear in mind that we have had the rabbits for a good 5 months where they ran around the apartment all day long prior to the winter break. They have also developed a new tendency to dig all the bedding out of their cage. Nor do they respond to their names or to us rustling their food bowl (when you use to rustle their food bowl they would come running back into the cage.) They also have a new tendency to hump each other and I understand this is because they are both females, and that they are trying to determine whose in charge. They are extremely naughty and quite frankly at the moment scrubbing the pee smell out of the carpet is becoming very annoying. It's like we have come home to completely different rabbits. We have decided to stop letting them out until we can find a solution can you please help us!
P.S -- i do believe thateven though latte pee's here and there itsdumbo thats causing most of the damage and i do realise i need to spay her ASAP..but in the mean time is there anything anyone can tell us that might improve our situation a little...
