  I’ve tried a few things, coroplast, a tray for wire cages to hold urine and poop but those have a lot of uneven surfaces and it doesn’t go well with the measurements of the grids, I wanted to try vinyl but it was extremely expensive in our Lowes.
  
  With the coroplast we had a rabbit chew it up on the sides, luckily not eat it.
  
  For now I plan to make a cage that’s 20 inches wide, 60 inches long and 20 inches high. May make it smaller if I get the xpen I was suggested to safe some room, but otherwise what can you guys recommend?

  If you improve litter training habits, you can do coroplast for a solid bottom and put fleece over it? Some people also use carpeting. Cardboard would would temporarily as well.
  
  I would recommend getting a litter box pretty close to 20in by something and isolating all hay on that side, above/in the far side of the box, that way your rabbit is most likely just to go in the litter box.

  Clem is very good on her litter habits, even while unspayed, she just likes to dig her litter, but I fixed that with one of those litter screens.
  I’m surprised people would use carpeting, mine is a carpet digger and ripper. I’ll try the coroplast and the fleece idea, thank you.

  Ive got small hallway short pile carpet mats in their cage and have attached wooden slats onto the carpet at the 4edges. So they get to chew, but it is wood and the carpet remains in one piece.
