The Different Solutions

50/50 is a mix of water and vinegar. It is most likely the most popular of all cleaning solutions that are safe for rabbits. You will need: white distilled vinegar, water, and a spray bottle. Simply mix half water half vinegar in a spray bottle, shake, and then it’s ready to use. 50/50 is great for litter boxes, cages, etc.

Different Ways to Clean Litterboxes

You could always just use 50/50 for cleaning litterboxes, but you could always do something else such as spreading out baking soda in the litterbox and pouring vinegar overtop of the baking soda, or you can always just use a hose to spray off excess litter clumps.

Steps with Pictures to Cleaning Litterboxes

1) When you have a soiled litterbox, the first thing you should do is either dump it outside in a compost pile, or dispose of it in a plastic grocery bag. If you would like to hose it down and be done that’s fine too.

2) Either use 50/50 and spray down the box, or spread baking soda through out the box and pour in the vinegar. Leave the box(es) to sit for 10 minutes.

3) Wipe down the litterboxes with paper towels and dispose of them. If you would like to pour out excess solution or vinegar, dump it in with the paper towels because they will absorb the liquids.

4) Wipe down the bottom of the litterbox with the solution if needed, wipe down the entire litterbox again if necessary. Then add your litter (check out my previous post, it includes information on proper sized litterboxes, proper litter, and what to avoid).

Thank you so much for coming along with me on my journey. As I had mentioned before, I would like to put up a donation option on my blog and am looking for supporters. Please like this post if you would participate in this surprise for a great shelter near me that doesn’t make profit from the government! This is going to be a Christmas present for them and would like to see them with smiles on their faces!
