Sounds like you made your mind up and he will find his way outside. I wish you luck.

I have to say the ACV is working for me. 2 days and no smell at 2 days.

Yes because the smell is too bad ,. How much do you give them ?
5 drops of ACV in a small crock of water a day. I'd have to quesstamite 12 oz of water. It's working for us. We started with two drops. Bunnies were a little hesitant at first but started to enjoy the taste. We gradually increased the drops little by little to 5 drops a day, which now they all enjoy drinking. And we enjoy it because we don't have to smell the urine. Understand totally what you are going through. Try it. But if not, the other ideas given will help the rabbit adjust. You have good choices here to best help you and your issue.

Inside or outside, your bunny will be fine. You need to do what's best for you.

we use two Tablespoons of ACV to a gallon of water... so for a quart...( 32 ox) it would be a half Tablespoon... even a well filled teaspoon would be fine. The added plus is it will help keep the bottle clean as well....no algae.

I was wondering if you could put an indoor rabbit outside and it cold ? Like I mean he has been inside for a few months and dont have much of a winter coat ,but he has to go out cause he is starting to smell,and I have been cleaning his cage every 2 days but its not helping .

He will be in a building but theres not heat or anything ,and my old rabbits used to be out all year round,but im just worried cause hes used to being inside :/
You could provide a box and some hay for the rabbit to snuggle into. Not certain just where You are located... but so far the 'winter' hasn't been too rough ...yet.


X 2 this suggestion. A rabbit fur coat is still a coat of fur, winterized or not. Just provide a place in which to snuggle and preserve heat and his coat will eventually adapt.

So what did you do? Did you take him outside? And if so, how is he doing? Did you keep him inside? Did you try the ACV inside or outside?

Hope all is well.

I hadnt either,mine is littertrained and thats the only part of the cage with bedding . However I will still have to clean it tomarrow and he has hay at all times . I dont expect huge results at first but so far its working .

Now I have to work out another problem: he was used to being out everyday for at least 3 hours(inside) ,but now I changed the room around and havent "rabbit proofed" it yet,and I dont want him under the bed where cords are . So,hes been in the cage for about 2 weeks now and needs exercise and I feel awful cause hes always wanting out and its not fair to him imo .

And i cant find ANYTHING to go all the way around the bed,I tried cardboard but he ripped it off :he


Sorry this reply is so long,and yeah they are great to have inside :)
