I have brought home a bunny that belong to a friend to help him look after for a few days. I have since returned it to him. My own bunny started to poo all over the place since then. I have tried to mop the area and remove the smell of my friend's bunny but my own bunny still continue to poo all over. Any advice how to stop this pooing problem? Before that he was quite discipline and poo only in his own cage. Help!

i guess he's jus being territorial? so maybe ater some time will return to normal ...bunnies tend to lose their excellent litter habits when they get teritorial n also sometimes hormonal periods.. jus b patient..keep picking up the poo n throwing into litter box..im sure he will get it after a while..

Thanks. It has been a few days and the pooing still persisted. Not sure how long before i can see him reverting to his own toilet trained behavior. Thot of doing something drastic like cleaning the whole house with bleaching solution to remove the smell from the other rabbit bit not sure it will help. Do I have to confined him to his cage and toilet trained him all over again? Sigh!

u can use vinegar to remove the smell, don't need to use bleaching solution (dangerous to animals).
in a way, i think u r quite lucky cos at least it's poo and not pee.... u can just sweep the poo with one of those handheld pan n broom. it's more hassle to clean up pee.

ACV taste sour and refreshing. Mixed with cold water quite nice leh. Can help slimming also. You can add honey to taste if you don't like it too soury. Hmmm.... ACV smell nicer than white vinegar. Club soda is a carbonated soft drink. You can find this in the supermarket can drink section.

All of u are amazing. Cant help but to be amused how this thread has gone so off tangent; from bunny toilet mishap ..... to buying a soda drink! Really enjoy u people. Btw, my bunny still continue his poo poo outside his cage. Trying to reduce his space and free time to see if it wil help to retrain his toilet habit. Also considering neutering him but not so willing. He is quite a lovely rabbit!
