I adopted a bunny recently and she was litterbox trained, but now she is peeing and pooping inside the cage not using the litterbox at all What can I do? Should I add another litterbox or what?

If it is a small cage, she could have cage stress. If you can buy a larger cage for her to get more activity that will help a great deal. Or let her out in your bedroom and let her hop around (with the door closed) and the litter pan nearby. They are great house pets, and in the wild they are used to being in open spaces not cramped in a cage.

Well its a big cage i switched to a bigger litterbox one that fits both corners so hopefully that will work. *fingers crossed*

if she poops / pees in a particlar corner of the cage, put a litter box there.

Also try putting some hay in the litter box. My rabbit always loved to much on some hay while going to the bathroom.

Also, if she isn't already, get her spayed. That should help too.

Good luck!

Imagine this ... a bunny breeder told me when I was looking at getting one ... not to spay the bunny.. I of course ran the other way

I agree! Definately put the litterbox in the corner the bun is going potty in! Unfortunately the bunny chooses the spot, not you. Good luck!
