Cleaning a pet rabbit’s cage may not be a fun chore but developing a technique and sticking to a schedule can help make cage cleaning simply a part of your routine. A clean cage is essential to a rabbit’s health and wellbeing.

Many rabbit owners make a habit of cleaning their pet’s cage weekly; however some enclosures may need to be cleaned more frequently depending on the size and how well the rabbits are litter-trained. Having 2 or more rabbits may mean cleaning their cage more often.

Daily cleaning involves removing any uneaten fresh food from the cage at least twice a day to prevent spoilage.

• If you are using a hay rack, remove any hay on the floor. If not, remove any wet or soiled hay.
• Wash the food bowl and the water bottle. Your rabbit should have access to fresh clean water every day.
• Spot cleaning will help make weekly cage cleaning much easier
