Poop only on my side of the bed

[Kijotenshi]

I have a 6 month old Flemish giant rescue. He gets along fine with everyone in the house. He follows us around and cuddles. He has perfect litter habits expect he likes to poop but only on my side of the bed. He completely ignores my husbands side, but as soon as he’s on my side, he’s pooping. He also grooms my blankets a lot. What does this mean and what can I do?
( he is neutered and has been for a few months )

It could be that he’s marking his territory. Even Neutered rabbits do that. Your bed smells like you. Wash your bed sheets throughly so that his scent is gone.

You could,

Block your bed with an Xpen so he can’t get up.

Keep him out of your bedroom

Add a litter box near your bed


Also if you catch him doing it, say his name a long with “no!” Don’t shout but say it sternly. Pick him up and remove him from the area. That gives you time to clean and also tells him that there’s a consequence when he does something you don’t like.

I agree with Apollo's Slave, I bet he is marking his territory. He is probably saying "This person is mine" by only going on your side of the bed. He is claiming you. To get him to stop, do what Apollo's Slave said and it should stop.
