FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Why XL Litter Box?

We came out with this size first because we could not find one this size on the market for our buns. A large litter box helps with good litter habits, reduces accidents, and encourages bunnies to eat more hay as they spend at least 50% of their day eating and producing those golden poops.

Should I Get Smaller Or Larger Hole Grate?

We recommend the smaller holes grate unless you have giant breed buns, such as Flemish giant/French lop. Poops would fall through the smaller holes grate for small/medium sized buns and even less hay waste!

We also have options to buy spare grates only.

Why Use Litter Box With Grate/Floor Mat?

1. Stops the digging fun. If your bunny is having too much fun digging the litter out...this is your solution.

2. Reduces the hay waste. Us bun parents know, bunnies do not eat soiled hay. With a safe grate, it helps to reduce hay waste.

3. Makes cleaning easier for bunparents. You can use any preferred beddings/pee pads at the bottom without worrying about your bunnies tearing and ingesting them that may lead to GI Stasis.

4. Bunnies will no longer be sitting in soiled litter, which will keep their feet and bottoms clean.

5. Bunparents can easily monitor pee and poop condition by simply lifting up the grate as waste easily falls through our grate even for larger buns.

Will The Grate Cause Sore Hocks?

When it comes to medical concerns like sore hocks, it’s always best to check in with your vet.

Our grate is thoughtfully designed to provide a large, smooth surface—unlike the thin wire floors that are commonly linked to sore hocks. While sore hocks are a medical condition, many bunnies (especially certain breeds) are simply prone to developing callouses. According to our vet, callouses are typically found on the heels, are often still covered in fur, and are not the same as sore hocks.

That said, every bunny is different. Just like some bunnies can zoom across hardwood floors with no issue while others prefer carpet, suitability depends on your individual bun. You know them best—so we encourage you to use your judgement when deciding if our grate is a good fit for their needs.

Is The Grate Floor Safe for Bunnies?

ROOLY’s grate is thoughtfully designed with bunny comfort in mind, including an option with smaller holes for bunnies with daintier front paws.

Since every bunny is different, we encourage you to use your best judgment when deciding if it’s suitable for your bun(s). As with any new item you introduce, we recommend closely observing their behavior over the first few days to ensure they’re comfortable and adjusting well.

Will the Grate Prevent My Bunnies From Eating Their Cecotropes?

No, the grate will not prevent them from getting the nutrients they need.

Bunnies can produce cecotropes anywhere and anytime and they know when it's coming...Bunnies usually put their heads down to eat the cecotropes (like fresh/directly from the source lol) to ensure they get the nutrients they need. They don't necessarily produce cecotropes when they use the litter box, and even if they do, cecotropes are sticky unlike their normal dry poops that just fall through the grate holes.

Best Way to Clean My ROOLY?

We recommend to use vinegar + water mix for a nice deep clean to remove any pee stains. Spray and let it sit for 15-20 mins, then gentle brush to remove any old stains. This method works well for any plastic litter boxes.

What Pee Pad Would Work With ROOLY Litter Box?

We recommend KIRKLAND extra-large Pee Pads. They fit perfectly and come as 100 counts. Amazon Link

Can Any Liners Fit the Box?

Yes, you can get these liners from Amazon that will fit over the entire litter box. However, only use liners if you buns don't chew. Safety first and definitely monitor anything new being introduced to your buns!

How Can I Get My Bunny Accustomed to Using the ROOLY Litter Box?

We recommend placing hay on the litter box to help your bunny get accustomed to the feeling of the floor mat and to help encourage good litter habits.
