Hi,
My bun loves to hang out outside in our patio/courtyard. She has decided that one of my above ground planters is her Poop Spot and has been pooping there for many months. She hardly poops inside in her litter pan during the day.
I go out and shovel it up with a spade, but I'm running out of mulch and the dirt underneath has hardened and started to smell.
Also, I can't pick up the poop without shoveling a significant amount of mulch. Therefore, I will quickly run out of mulch if all I do is go to Lowe's and buy more mulch. And, it doesn't absorb so the dirt is stinky now.
It is under the eaves of the house, so it doesn't get much rain but some will blow in during Rainy Season, and we keep our hose there. We stopped trying to plant anything because if it's edible she will hoover it So I am just trying to make it look like a nice neat planter that doesn't smell like poo or urine.
Is there some material I can use, and some shovel I can buy that would be smarter? Or several layers of material? I am thinking of something other than bedding which would look terrible, land all over the place and not really look like a garden. Something more like what I'd buy at HOme Depot or Lowes. I love my bunny but I still want the planter to look like an outdoor planter of some kind, not a bunny litter pan.
