Hi all
You are probably reading the title and thinking, 'that's a good thing isn't it?' well no it isn't!
My boys have a wooden house which they sleep in and run in to when they are scared. But they poop and pee in the house and no where else in the down stairs of the C&C cage. They do pee and poop in the hay loft i have for them, but love going in their house!
It is fine during the day as myself or my partner are there to spot clean, but during the night when they poop, it must be yukky for them to be laying in their own poop and pee!
Now, my partner suggested we move the wooden house to another corner so they will continue to go in the same corner but eventually poop and pee in the litter tray that i will buy them and put it in their corner. Now, i said well if we move the house, won't they just poop and pee in the house again?
Not sure what to do and how to 'train' them. I know you can't fully train guinea pigs, but any advice would be great!
Ideally i would like them to poop and pee in the hay loft all the time, but i don't think that will ever happen!
Thanks for reading
