Yes, it can be done! But just as with any pet it takes a bit of work, and perseverence is the key!
Rabbits are usually very easy to litter train though, as this is essentially their natural behaviour. We often advise that it can be easier to litter train a rabbit than it is a cat. Some rabbit may even just "train themselves" to use the tray!
A tip though, particular for baby rabbits:
- Cover the floor of their cage or the area of the house you want to have the litter tray. Put the litter tray in place, topped with a handful of hay.
- Try to confine your rabbit to the area/cage for 48 - 72 hours. Move any stray droppings or urine soaked newspaper into the tray.
- Once he is reliably using the litter tray, let him out for gradually increasing periods of time, spervising closely.
