I am home from work and had a short day but exhausted (heavy lifting , and loading today). I am making in routine to clean the cage (take it outside and basically hose it down and wipe the things) once a week, and then scoop everything out another time (mid week). Its been spitting for a few hours here, and Im hoping it stops so I can unload the cage and let Marco to play around in my room while I clean it.

Cage cleaning day sounds familiar to me, though I have rats instead of a bunny. I do it a little different though. I will clean their bedding, hose out the tray, and wipe down the shelves one day every week, but only take the WHOLE cage out and hose it down every 2 weeks. The bars not getting as dirty as the shelves. I've been known to go out in the rain and do ti, as long as its not lightning.

Throughout the week I will shovel out the bedding , and all that. I plan on taking it all out and spray it down once a week. The cage wasnt that dirty I may do it every 2 weeks, but its the litter box I plan on cleaning once a week.

I hope it does as well so that you can hose it down real well. Though don't you have a garage? While it won't SMELL good, your parents might allow you to hose it down in there and then hose the mess down the driveway a wee bit.

The cage wouldnt fit in the garage - my Dad has all his tools, and an antique truck he is rebuilding. I may wait until tomorrow but its been on and off all day so I may just do it between rain spirts.

Setting your routine early develops great habits that I'm sure Marco will appreciate. It is nice to see how well you've adapted to having Marco as part of your family. He is as cute as a bug's ear.

At first I was having love birds in my home and I sued to repair and clean the cage on each of the continuous six months. I used to make use of a broom and some tools to repair them and I needs to spent about two or more hours for it.
