What eating and elimination behaviours do mice, cats, budgies and rabbits have?

Elimination answer:


Mice - will poo anywhere and on the run. They can't be trained to go in a certain spot as pets.





Cats - will generally NOT do it anywhere and can be trained. They bury their waste. They are very clean animals.





Budgies - like mice. Watch out if you permit your budgie to fly freely in your room; they poo everywhere.





Rabbits - even worse ... they do it where they sleep as well. One of the frustrating things about keeping a pet rabbit. I was shocked.What eating and elimination behaviours do mice, cats, budgies and rabbits have?

Rabbits:





They eat their poo (some can be re-digested, its good for them). If a male is not neutered (and some females) they are very territorial. This means he will urinate or poo all over the place. Including your furniture or carpet. Their poo are small pellets but it's still gross.





They eat pellets, hay, fruits, sometimes leaves, etc. They eat if there is food in the bowl, no stopping them. But they drink tons of water, they drink their weight in water.
