Question
My rabbit is 10 months old. I am trying to teach him to use a litter box, but its not working. Do you have any sugestions?
Thanks Abbey

Answer
Dear Abbey,

Is bunny neutered/spayed yet?  If not, that's the very first essential step.  You can read more about this here:

www.bio.miami.edu/hare/spay.html

and find a good rabbit vet to do the surgery here:

Once bun has been neutered/spayed and given enough time to calm down, then the tips here:

www.bio.miami.edu/hare/training.html

should help.  There are more tips on litter training and proper rabbit care at www.rabbit.org/ --your best source of accurate bunny information.  :)

Hope that helps!
