Your bunnies are beautiful! Where can I see more pictures of them?

Lots of people have opinions about litter and cleaning and litter boxes, etc.

Personally? I stick 2 pieces of newspaper at the bottom of the litter box, pour some Feline Pine (or equivalent compressed wood/pine pellet) on top and that's it.

Avoid clumping or litter that contains clay, it's bad for the bunnies. Also make sure if you're going to use a pine pellet that the wood has been kiln dried to make it safe for the buns. Many people use wood stove pellets (cheaper by bulk than Feline Pine). I can't find any around where I live so I just stick with my cat litter, Feline Pine (pellet type, not clumping type).

For cleaning, I use some vinegar and rinse well.

I wouldn't use bedding. I would put cardboard down in the bottom of cage. Bunnies love to chew on it. And use a cat litter box and put litter in it. I useYesturday's News(Litter).



If they pee outside the litter box ,soak it up with a paper towel and put it in the litter box. same with poo. Put it in the box.

Good Luck

Well, I seperate the Buck and the Doe's today, The Buck is in a rabbit cage with the removeable pan and wire bottom, He's been using the litter pan, And got the Doe's in a cage that was for my ferret that i got rid of, That cage isnt removable, But I got this Corn stuff that they sell at Wal-mart in the small animal department. They are doing better but they are just babies also

It took a good 3-5 months for my bunnies to be completely litter boxtrained. More the poo's. The peeing they picked up quicker. Takes patience :biggrin2:
