When many people think of rabbits, they tend to think of bunnies living in hutches in the backyard. The truth is, however, that rabbits are much happier living indoors as part of your family. The good news is that rabbits, much like cats, can be trained to use a litter box. House training your bunny can be fairly simple if you follow a few easy steps.

  1. Rabbits who have been spayed or neutered are usually easier to house train than those who haven't been altered. Adult bunnies who have not been spayed or neutered have a tendency to mark their territory. Altering your pet rabbit is one of the best ways to speed up the litter training process. Spaying and neutering also has the added benefit of preventing several types of cancer, increasing your bunny's life expectancy.
  2. The age of your bunny may make a difference in litter training. Adult rabbits are usually easier to house train than their younger counterparts. If you have a baby or adolescent bunny, it's vital that you are patient and understanding of mistakes. It may take them a little longer than older rabbits to get the hang of using the litter box, but they'll get there before you know it.
  3. Make sure that you choose a cage that is large enough for your bunny and all of his accessories. Rabbits need to have room to play, eat, stretch out and use their litter box. If you are having trouble fitting a litter pan, chances are that the cage is too small.
  4. A small, plastic litter pan like the ones used by cats work perfectly for bunnies. Check your local pet supply store for ideas for litter pans that are appropriate for your rabbit and his living quarters. Litter pans come in a variety of sizes, and there are even several pans designed to fit into the corner of a cage on the market. Any of these are appropriate. Keep in mind that bunnies spend a lot of time in their litter boxes so the box should be large enough for them to lie down in. You may have to experiment with one or two different litter boxes of varying sizes and heights to find the one that works best for your bunny....
