we to have a rabbit and he "had" a potty in his cage and he used it all the time until we had to throw it out. his potty was hooked in the corner of his cage and now that his potty has been thrown away he still uses the bathroom where it use to set. so i sugest to buy him a potty at the pet shop and hook it up in the corner.

Rabbits are very smart animals. I have had a few in my life and all of them were litter boxed trained! First off, make sure they are fixed. It is so much easier that way, trust me the ones that were fixed always went in there litter box and the ones that weren't never did, until I got them fixed! So after that put in a cat size litter box in a corner or the area where your rabbit is. In the box put down the bedding (I find Yesterdays News to work best) then on top of that put some hay down. Rabbits love to poop and eat at the same time, yes I know gross, but its what they like. Then when you see your rabbit going to the bathroom and not in the litter box, put him in it... Also praise him when he does go in there. If your put some poop in there it will also show them where to go. Good luck and don't give up! Its is possible!

When I first got my rabbit I had a hard time potty training her. You really need to be there with them to re-enforce the whole litter box idea so that they will get it. Whenever my rabbit used the bathroom outside her littler box I would show her the mess (put her face close to it), and then put her in the littler box. Also, whenever she made a mess I would scoop it up and put it in the littler box so she would get the idea. Also, try putting the littler box in the part of your rabbit's cage where he/she normally uses the bathroom (all the rabbits I've known tend to use the bathroom in one corner so that might help). Don't forget to reward your rabbit when you see him/her use the litter box. The rest is just time and patience. good luck!

There are no ways of potty training a rabbit. Rabbits aren't too smart you know. Keep the rabbit in a cage or clean up marbles everytime they hop, hop, hop.

Put your rabbits in a big box that they can't jump when ever you think they have to pea or connect a box to the cage and make a hole in the box so it can go in the box, and teach your rabbit that it has to go to the bathroom in the box. GOOD LUCK!!!!!

you need a box in every room and his safe spots, if you have a potty box in his cage get similar ones.if you put a bit of litter (they have toknow its their for poopin in) in all the boxes so they smell the same they will pick up on it.

Put your litter tray where your bunny likes to urinate. Try to keep your bunny in one room until it learns to use the litter tray. Here can you read a little more about it.
