We bag their poo for you too to take away with them ... heres why
For rabbits, familiar scent acts as a map of safety and territory. Relocating to a brand-new home can be deeply stressful because everything smells completely foreign, which can trigger anxiety .
The Scent Map: Transferring a bit of their old unwashed litter, bedding, or droppings into their new litter tray or hutch gives them an immediate anchor of familiarity.
Quicker Settling: When their space smells like them, they adjust faster, feel secure enough to eat and drink normally, and are less likely to panic.
Do Not Deep Clean Yet: Avoid the urge to scrub or wash their hideouts, litter box, or blankets right before or immediately after the move; you will wash away the exact scent markers they need to navigate the transition.
