House Rabbit-litter training

Bea

New Kit
Hi- new to this site and new to keeping a rabbit.Always had cats, but never a rabbit so new to it all!

I decided to get a giant house rabbbit-a doe. She is gorgeous and settling in v v well-despite kids-she has lots of hidey places like behind the sofa-under the bed.The only worry i have is litter training- she is litter trained(she is 4 months btw)-uses her litter trays in each room all fine-BUT still getting droppings scattered about and she is scenting the edges of the rooms- not a full wee just smal spots to mark her territory.Will this improve??Or do I just get used to discarding the odd dropping and getting used to rabit scent?

I am clearing the wees up and using pet stain remover-but getting through a lot of it so any ideas of an alternative for that to would be great-thanks!!!
 
if she is spraying then neutering will help and also reduce her risk of getting cancer.

Try picking up all the little poos any time you see them & put them in the litter tray...also make sure she has lots of hay in the litter tray so she can eat and poop at the same time.

Mine aren't 100% perfect, we always get 4/5 not in the litter tray each day but I think it's pretty good.
