Help with litter training

[Myia09]

So, Kinobe is yet to be nueterd..he was set for Monday, but if you are friends with me on facebook you heard about my traffic stop and six tickets I got because the DMV misinformed me of my scooter.

Anyways, I may be able to borrow money still to get him nueterd on Monday, or I have to wait now until the end of may.

He does pee/poop in one corner..

Problem?

It is the corner of my chinchilla cage...so I have no way of putting a box there.

What should I do to try to curb this to a new corner?

Perhaps put the litter tray as close as you can to the 'spot' he likes, but in a place where it fits. Put all his poops in there, and soak up the urine that will inevitably be in the chinchilla corner, and put that in his new litter tray.
When you see him rushing to the chinchilla corner (not that they rush, but you know lol) perhaps pick him up, and place him immediately in the litter tray? I'm not sure if that technique works with buns, but maybe someone could confirm that/say if it's not a great idea?

Can you block ot off with something else? Like a cardboard box? Sometimes they'll stop going there if they can't scoot their bum into the corner.

I might be able to block it..the cage is a ferret nation..so the cage is raised about 2 feet but there is a "grate" near the floor (For storage)..he squeezes below it and pees in the corner.

There is no way I could put a litter box, as there is no space..but I can try to block it off.

I need to go buy 2-3 LARGE litter boxes...put them everywhere..lol..

Is there a type of deterrent spray taht would work besdies vineger to clean it?

I find vinegar works really well. I also use this Miracle pet deoderizer stuff that I got at the grocery store. It's specifically made for cleaning pee out of carpets, so I'll use the vinegar first, then go over it again with the pet cleaner just to be sure.
