Anonymous users2024-01-24This is quite normal, my previous lop-eared rabbit also likes to squat in the toilet, I think there are several possibilities:
1: The floor of the toilet is comfortable to step on.
2: The grass nest is more of a toy for it, not a place to live.
3: The rabbit divides the territory by the smell of urine, so the toilet is more secure for him.
That's the special habit of lop-eared rabbits, and you should be happy! Because many lop-eared rabbits no longer have this special habit. My rabbit is like this too. >>>More
Be patient, get a small toilet for it, put some urine and poop on the bedding inside, don't hit it, teach it patiently, and give rewards appropriately
In the wild, there is a special hole in the rabbit nest for toilets. So rabbits go to the toilet as well. If the bunnies who have just come back are too small, they may not, so guide them patiently. Rabbits generally choose to use the toilet in some corners, and places with a strong smell of excrement. >>>More
I don't think so, if the toilet is that kind of squatting, he will fall, even if it is a toilet, but the toilet generally puts a lot of debris, and rabbits will also run into it when they are active.
When our lop-eared rabbit first came, we brushed the urinal for him and poured it into the toilet, which may also smell, and the rabbit himself knew to go to the toilet, and he didn't teach it at all.
