Traveling

I'm bring my rabbit to the vet in 5 days. I gota carrier and i was wondering how do i prevent my rabbit from poopingand peeing in it.

You can't really. You could get a wee wee pad and lay that inside the carrier.

How long a car ride will it be?

The only thing I worry about in respect to a wee-pad...if the bun chewson it (or starts wanting to shred it), does it contain any harmfulthings/chemicals on the inside?

If the ride's under an hour, I usually just put some soft bedding (likeCarefresh) down on the bottom of the carrier, and some hay ontop.

The short answer is you can't. I fill mybunscarrier upwith a a thick layer of newspaper tosoak up wee and plenty of hay to burrow into and nibble on during thejourney.

Depending on the carrier, you might be able toput some litter in the bottom of the carrier. Or sometimesI'll fold up a towel to fit in the bottom. I haven't had muchof a problem with the buns peeing/pooping in the carrier while it'smoving, just when it's sitting still.


How long is the trip to the vets?

I usually put down a towel and hope for the best

thx for the suggestion. OMG my rabbit is a bigpoopy peeing rabbit. It jumped over the fence that i used for her penat night while i was sleeping in another room. And then when i cameback in the morning i found poop all over the floor and i think itpooped and peed on my pillow and pooped on my bed. OMG it'sdisgusting!!!!!!!! And she;s still not controlling her litter like sheused to. I think i'm going to put her back in her cage until i get abigger fence

Is she spayed? If not, that may play a big part in her doing that.

Just curious...

Also, how old is she?

she is about 1 year old. And unspayed. She willbe in 2 days. I kinda figured that shes behaving badly is becuz she isunspayed. For her 1 years old is like out teenage years when we startto act different.

And becuz my rabbit is behaving so badly my mom said i cant get another one. =(
