Hello all! My little bun is about 11 weeks old, male, and not yet neutered and we are having a difficult time getting him to use his litter box when he roams.
Right now he can roam around the living room and dining room but can always hop back into his cage for water, to eat, or use the bathroom. He has been using his litter box for poop (except when he’s cuddling on the couch he just lets it out and we pick it up and put it in his litter box) and I know he uses his litter box for pee when he is in the cage (as I have to clean pee out of it) but specifically when he is on the couch he will pee ANYWHERE... cuddling on us, hiding in the cushions, etc. We always clean it up with a paper towel and put the towel in his litter box and then move him to the litter box as well, then we clean up the stain/odor.
Im wondering how I can get him to stop using the bathroom on the couch... have we completely messed up in litter box training? Additionally, there isn’t really a way to keep him off the couch as he jumps up and down as he pleases
