LOL Talk about a Little Pooper!( sorry couldnt resist ) lol
First thing I would try is decreasing thesize of her cage untill she ismore litter trained ,Like all babies Potty training , theytend to forget when not close enough tothe bathroom . Dont you just love thoseplaypens though , I use the larger one forthe bigger rabbits , it has aheavier gauge wire . I dont thinkI could live with out those Pens .

We've tried shrinking the size of the cage but it didn'twork. Do you think we need to remove Pristine from the roomin order for this to stop? She didn't start doing this untilPristine came along.

Hi Lissa, why don't you try to put some hay nearthe litter box. All of our Bunnies love to eat hay when theyare in the litter box. Just a suggestion.
Good Luck

Oh, Lissa. I thought mine werebad. I'm sure it's territorial. Is there any wayyou could move Pristine to another room in the house?
Look on the bright side - at least you don't have to worry about stasis with this one!

Jason and I have been talking about maybe moving Iszyupstairs. That way she could have free run all daylong. Thedownsides -- we probablywouldn't see her as much because we don't spend much time upstairs --and she may get lonely not seeing Pristine. :? Whatdo you think about that idea? Free run 24/7 for both buns?

Okay, I'll beserious for a minute.Try this; put her hay besideher litter box. Sebastian used to never, ever poop anywhere buthis litter box. As soon as we moved his hay rack across the cage fromhis litter box, he started pooping wherever he darn well pleased.:XHe just sits and eats hay andpoops!
It's like he just chews and poos! :shock:

I've got my cage set up so that all the food,water and hay is right by the litter box. I put a fewhandfulls of hay in the boxes each day, and empty/clean them everyother day. I hung the feed dish above the litter box, as wellas the water bottle. It's worked great, and I haven't hadthat many poo's out side of the litter box.

I second that idea. Willow only gets her pellets froma heavy dish in her litter box, it works A+. It's hard totell from your pic, can your bun get in and out of the litter box withease?

You are not the only one with that problem. WhenI let MeatHead/Micheal out of his cage he has to leave a huge pile ofhis coco puffs in front of our bedroom door so when we leave the roomthen come back in we end up stepping in it. He knows it and thinks it isfunny. The only thing I can think of that worked for me is moving thelitter pan to another more bathroom spot.

That Iszy has such an attitude. She'll just do whatever she wants, whenever she wants.
She sure is making her point clear about how she feels about Pristinebeing in the house. She wants to make sure EVERY one/bunknows that there's a price to pay when you make a decision and don'tinclude her.

It looks like she put all the poos in that spinning hay rack and gave it a good whirl!
